Our second tour with Viva Shediac and another wonderful day ! We had the BEST fried clams ever!! - at Chez Leo and enjoyed meeting the owner and manager. The 40km drive was beautiful and we loved the oysters ! ( and the sausage !) They introduced us to Grange Du Chavire - a very special stop on your Sunday Drive Tour ! Daniel Leger was both charming and talented ! He entertained us with songs and stories of his life thru music! We can’t say enough about the experience ! The entire tour is fabulous - but meeting Daniel and hearing his music was the highlight ! Thanks again for another great day !

This was an all-day excursion - particularly planned to see the Bay of Fundy 2 different times to experience the change in the tides. Paula was an absolutely amazing guide who had tons of information about the area, lobstering, tidal waves, etc. Absolutely a great way to spend the day (and I did get some local coffee at the city market which was also a plus).
