Climb aboard your authentic pink London double-decker bus and witness the city's popular attractions and historic landmarks. You'll be given a map of stops and routing before boarding the bus and advised of the overall frequency of the day. You can hop off at any of the scheduled stops on the route. Your route will take you to Fort Howe, an 18th-century British fortification, and Loyalist House, one of the few buildings to survive the Great Fire of 1877. You'll also pass by the New Brunswick Museum, Canada's oldest continuing museum. Then on to Fallsview Park, where the mighty St. John River meets the powerful tides of the Bay of Fundy, creating the renowned Reversing Rapids. The Bay of Fundy is an UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, UNESCO's conservation and sustainable development arm for areas that have terrestrial and coastal marine ecosystems. You'll see the phenomenon that is Reversing Rapids, and if you like, you can return later in the day for a new prospective of the rise and fall of the magnificent Bay of Fundy. The tour is also for shoppers. You'll travel to the Old City Market. Located in the heart of Saint John, the oldest working farmer's market in Canada is still a popular meeting place for residents. The market first opened in 1876 and has withstood the test of time, from The Great Fire of 1877 to the 20th-century urban renewal. The shipwrights who built the market gave it a crowning touch: a roof in the shape of a ship's hull. Tasty treats and eye-catching crafts await you at the bustling market, or if you prefer, you can relax in the idyllic King's Square Park. Other attractions include Barbour's General Store, an authentic 19th-century country general store, Saint John Skywalk, Trinity Church, Rockwood Park and King Street.
