Take a run ‘Up’ the Southern Shore as we wind along the pretty coastal roadways that connect the outport fishing communities along Newfoundland’s Irish Loop. This is a beautiful drive along the coast with architecture and development that reflects an era of opulence thought unimaginable for this period in North American history. We’ll meet fascinating characters, visit small fishing communities, and absorb the magnitude of luxury items discovered at the Colony of Avalon archeological site.

Very scenic drive thru the loop and Ferryland with several stops including a craft market. Dave our guide was very knowledgeable and made a couple more stops as we were a small group and ahead of schedule.

My husband & I were greatly impressed with McCarthy's Party Day Tours. On both of our Day Tours, our Guide, Dave Welshman, kindly shared his extensive knowledge of the culture and history of Newfoundland and we loved the stories that he provided as a foundation to the various locales that we toured. He went beyond our expectations by introducing us to people who lived in various communities. When we visited Renews, NL, Dave along with his friend, John Chidley, entertained us by playing music which further added to the pleasure of our NL experiences. The weather was perfect, the local food delicious and the scenery at every place on both Tours, was absolutely stunning. We definitely would recommend ‘the Irish Loop to Ferryland’ (Witless Bay, Tors Cover, Brigus, Ferryland, Renews) & ‘Excursion Around the Bay’ (Holyrood, Cupids, Brigus, Conception Harbour).

My visit to St. John's was a last minute thing and I wanted to do a trip, or two, to get to know a bit about the area. The first trip I did was the Irish Loop day trip. From when I made the booking, right up to the end of the trip, everything was very well organised and I'm really glad I chose McCarthy's Party to go with. Our driver, Steve, was brilliant! Very relaxed and was a fountain of great information, throughout the trip. Saw some beautiful scenery and quaint villages. A wonderful lunch was provided too. I'd highly recommend this trip and the company!
A great day visiting new Newfoundland friends!

Dave guided our small group of 8 on a fine tour of the Irish Loop. He was excellent - like travelling with a local friend. He gave us access to great local perspectives, places and people including having his friend at the Bay Bulls cathedral open it for us, sharing partridge berry muffins and a village tour with a fine local story teller and taking us to a spot on the shore that was perfect to watch the water rolling in on the rocks, The excellent tour of the Colony of Avalon site in Ferryland was super. This was our third tour with McCarthy’s and I recommend them all very highly!

This was a small group tour. The trip itself was very nice. Unfortunately for us it was raining most of the time so couldn't get out in a lot of places. But the sights are amazing. The guide Billy was very friendly and was sharing a lot of information about NL. The food was pan fried cod and veg.. it was nice..over all no complaints would defining recommend it
Great tour guide, lovely tour

Dave Welshman was a terrific guide. As a teacher on the off season, he knows his stuff and acted as a terrific and knowledgeable host and guide. The minibus was very comfortable and we had a smooth ride. The scenery breath taking. The Ferryland Archaeological site is quite a jewel, we had no idea of the depth of colonial history of the Irish on the Island. We would consider further tours on a further visit to the island. Sts-Peter and Paul Church tour was special. To think there is a fully functional Casavant pipe organ there. Wow! This is big league stuff.
Highly Recommend.

Excellent tour and very informative! Our guide, Dave Welshman, teaches Newfoundland culture in high school and spends his summers leading tours — and it shows. He was incredibly knowledgeable about all things Newfoundland. We stopped in Ferryland for a delicious lunch of cod, potatoes, turnip, and carrots, along with tea. Later, we visited the small settlement of Renews, where we browsed homemade crafts and sampled local desserts. Dave’s passion for what he does really shines through. I even got to play the “ugly stick” while Dave played the accordion! Highly recommended — a wonderful way to spend the day and explore areas outside of St. John’s.

This is a great day trip, it is a packed full day, great information. Lots of beautiful scenery. Billy was our quide, very knowledgable of the area. We had one person who doesn’t eat fish and so he made his own arrangements at lunch time, but Billy checked a few times with our person to make sure he was fine. Definitely would recommend this trip and if you are lucky you will have Billy as your quide.
Unforgettable tour of Newfoundland.
