Overview

Take in the architecture, history, and culture of uptown Saint John. During this two hour tour your costumed guide will show you where the Loyalist refugees first landed in the city after the War of Independence, where the infamous Benedict Arnold once lived, and so much more.

Your guide will take you down historic streets filled with architectural wonders from the later part of the 19th century. You'll hear stories of the city's rich ship building heritage and the area's deep Irish and Acadian roots.

If you like local foods and arts and crafts then you'll certainly enjoy your visit to the Old City Market. This is one walking tour you don't want to miss.

King's Square

A classic, historic, and inviting urban park, King's Square is located in uptown Saint John at the head of King Street and bounded by Sydney, Charlotte, King's Square North, and King's Square South Streets. A salute to the Loyalist heritage of the city's founders, its pathways were designed in the shape of the British Union flag. The square is home to several monuments and plaques paying homage to individuals who helped shape the City’s heritage. Many of the tall trees that stand in the Square today were planted for the 1883 Centennial Celebrations of the landing of the Loyalists in Saint John. In 1909, the City Coronet Band donated the unique two-storey bandstand, located in the Square's center, as a tribute to King Edward VII.
