I’m so proud of these athletes. Blood, sweat, tears… and absolutely no skill have gone into perfecting their craft.

Today’s event: jumping off things that are barely off the ground and shouting PARKOUR! Even Rigby stuck the landing.

Book your spot in our next training camp — helmets optional, drama mandatory.

Laurie may be older than the rest of us, but he definitely keeps us on our toes—literally. His knowledge and charm are unmatched, his wit even more so.

And while he has zero interest in this social media nonsense, he’s begrudgingly embraced our shenanigans. Sometimes he even laughs at us.

Mostly he pretends he doesn’t know us.

Some tour companies rush you from one photo op to the next.

We prefer a different pace.

Scenic drives. Midday hammocks. Existential thoughts on Atlantic breezes.

Tour the way you want to.

(Evan clearly is.)

Hannah went home to Newfoundland for vacation… and ended up delivering one of the greatest historical roasts of our time.

Historical AND hysterical.

They said ‘no flash photography’ but no one warned Evan about Hannah’s burns.

Are you?

Turns out running tours isn’t just about great views and questionable snack choices.

Ever since the whole fish & chips incident, things have been… tense. Laurie started a group chat called Team Hannah, and now everyone’s acting like we’re in some kind of passive-aggressive tour guide Survivor.

Guests are asking questions. Allegiances are shifting. Someone brought a mediator.

Anyway—here’s a behind-the-scenes look at a team on the brink.

Well, well, well… look who’s thriving without Hannah.

She’s been in Newfoundland one day and Evan’s already out here filming content with Laurie, sharing lunch, and boldly declaring tours are “better without her.”

Laurie, ever the icon and already up on the office gossip—doesn’t miss a beat.

Is it betrayal? Is it brilliance?
Or just two dudes smashing a one-piece fish & chips like nothing happened?

Evan took a day off and Hannah spiraled.
No one to bicker with, steal her snacks, or dramatically point at things guests are already looking at. Just her… and the crushing weight of solo tour guide life.

Don’t worry—she rallied by stop three and still gave a five-star performance. But if she seemed a little too excited to see strangers, now you know why.

We’re not saying she misses him that much… but someone pass the tissues.

A few years ago, Moe and I had our first taste of Chef Michael Smith’s legendary FireWorks dinner. He hasn’t stopped talking about the oysters since—so when he came back to PEI, there was no question: we were going again.

But what stood out this time wasn’t just the food (though the wild rose-infused Negroni and fire-roasted oysters nearly ruined me for life). What stayed with me was something Chef Michael said before dinner: authenticity is everything.

That hit home. And that’s why we do this.

Because whether you’re plating oysters caught in the bay across the street or guiding visitors around Nova Scotia and PEI, the magic is in what’s real. The land. The stories. The people who live and breathe the place.

It’s why we dream of bringing our guests here one day— to have a true taste of maritime hospitality.

Also… yes. I ate the biggest oyster at the table.

And yes. You’re supposed to chew it. Just not too much. 😏

Don’t mistake our longing for that summer sun as a hint of winter despair. Oh no! We’re loving the endless snow fall this year. But what we do long for is sharing Nova Scotia with you, our dear passengers! And it’s almost that time again :) So make sure to soak in all the winter while you still can and then come give us a visit already!
