About this activity

Having shared the story of Come From Away with almost a million people, and partnered in life with born and raised Newfoundlander, Deneen, my passion for this place is what drives my desire to share it with you.

*All tours hosted and guided by George, Deneen, and/or historian Dave Peters - who descends from one of Newfoundland's earliest settled families All are deeply steeped in the culture and traditions of this land and are excited to welcome you inside the story:)
