Pete loves Saint John and it shows! Hear about the history and anecdotes about what makes Saint John what it is today. With humor and good storytelling, Pete talks about architecture, immigration and everything in between. Highly recommend spending a couple of hours with Pete; you’ll be glad that you did!

Pete was an awesome tour guide! Our whole family enjoyed Pete's very informative and also entertaining tour of St. John. As a former pub owner (of many years), Pete is the perfect person to share the history of the city and some fun personal anecdotes. He also seems to know just about everyone that walked by! His great stories really helped us to understand more about the very interesting city of St. John and its residents. I appreciated how well-informed he was about the various architectural aspects of the city since I was keen to learn about St. John's incredibly well-preserved Victorian buildings. He also managed to keep our kiddos (age 6 and 12) engaged the whole time! I'm so glad I booked Pete's tour. It was a fantastic experience and definitely the highlight of our time in St. John. Thanks, Pete!

I've done various walking tours all over the world and regardless of location it's the guide that really makes a difference. Pete is the perfect person for this job! Who better than a local, former pub owner to take you around town. Even made the hill flat for us 😄
