This port and tour was interesting but I felt rushed. I'd rather do fewer items and do them well instead of trying to do everything and not feeling like we really had time to do anything. Long bus rides! My husband and many others fell asleep on the bus. ...
We had 2 stays here instead of one due to Charlottetown and Sydney being cancelled due to Hurricane Fiona. People were very welcoming and there is a good cruise terminal facility with lots of information and helpful transport options. Second trip very short due to ridiculously early arrival time? Not much point in getting off a ship if nothing is opened? ...
Our tour run by an independent operator was cancelled so we simply walked off the pier and found any number of very eager taxis willing to provide a tour and at about half the price of the ship's tours. We hired one and went to the reversing falls, but the fog was intense and it was hard to see. It is a very much a walkable town. ...
We loved our time in St. John. The people there are warm and inviting. Lots of great shops and restaurants in walking distance of the port. We'd definitely come back!! (Just not with Royal Caribbean) ...
