Canada Road Trip: Best Things To Do In Newfoundland 

We just released a new video about Newfoundland. This time we take you up the Viking Trail to the world's FIRST UNESCO World Heritage Site! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JOoYL0cBc5E.html

I'm an American blessed to live in one of the most beautiful places on gods blue-green earth: Vermont. And yet I've spent more than 5 months in Newfoundland spread out over 4 separate trips. Everything about Newfoundland is authentic, pure, genuine, honest, and non-stop gorgeous. And the people?........second to none in a very big world.

Great video. I was born and raised in St. John's but my parents and I had to move to Ontario because Ontario could provide them with a life that Newfoundland couldn't at the time. One things for certain, you appreciate it more after you've been gone for 30+ years. My dad said it best at his uncles funeral, "Newfoundland is the only place you try to get off of as a child, then spend the rest of your life trying to get back". I hope to go back home to live out my remaining years one day! I'm a proud Newfoundlander! Again, great video.

I'm a born and raised Torontonian who married a Newfoundlander. First visit to "The Rock" blew my mind and we were lucky enough to be able to retire early to this magical Island. When I visit Ontario, now especially, I wonder how anyone can live there. #newfiebyinjection

I'm from Newfoundland and this made me even prouder than I already am. Wonderful job, guys! I'm going to watch the rest of your videos too. :) Thanks for doing this.

This series seriously deserves much higher views! Incredible quality of videos with amazing camera angles. No need to mention the majestic views of the country, which already speak for themselves. You're marvelous as a couple and travelers. Will wait for more of your great shots :D

One of the most beautiful places in Canada for sure,love Newfoundland.I have lived here for 1yr,absolutely love it,nicest people you'd ever want to meet.

St. John’s can get some crazy winds as there’s not much to shelter the Avalon peninsula but Lethbridge Alberta is much windier.

It's not that I don't like Newfoundland, I love it . The cinematography was way to fast per scene , needed at least another 10 seconds. Didn't seem like much depth of research done for the script as related to the scene and a lot of drinking scenes and toasting scenes. The people are nice , I know , but must it be the line for almost every other scene change? Is Newfoundland where I want to go for drinking. I know you only had 7 minutes but the content was to flashy. Not a style that calls me to watch more. Do some investigation for your script; why are the houses different colors? What time of year has the harbor clogged with pack ice? What genre of music are they actually playing in all the music scenes with no music? Ask more questions of the people who live there ,etc etc More narrative about the scenes themselves.

Been to 7 Provinces in Canada, Newfoundland is the best. St John's is a very beautiful city.Spent a week there just this July

They also had it wrong..Nfld is the oldest British Colony in the Northern hemisphere before it became a province of Canada in 1948.

At 52, I’m happy to say I’ve seen my entire country, every province, territory, and have been to the most eastern, western, southern and northern points of our beautiful nation…. I know on the international stage we don’t get the attention most other countries do, but we really should because this country is absolutely beautiful from coast to coast to coast, not to mention absolutely enormous! My sister and I promised each other we would drive across the entire country, it took us two years, but we did it, and made a lot of stops along the way. It was the best thing we ever did, and I’m actually planning to do it all over again, to try to see some of the places that we missed, because it’s impossible to see it all in one lifetime, just look on the map, this country is gigantic, and greatly underestimated. You wouldn’t believe all the things there are to see and do out there, the biggest problem is cost, it’s cheaper for us to fly to Europe or down south then it is to travel in our own country. They really need to make it cheaper for Canadians to explore their own country, that’s the main reason why most Canadians don’t travel inside our own borders, it’s just too expensive, so my sister and I opted to drive, because we both love driving, and we both love to explore, something you can’t do if you fly. Whatever chance you get, go out there and do it, and explore this beautiful country, we are so overshadowed by our southern neighbors, but there is so much more to this country than you could possibly imagine. I’ve been fortunate enough in my lifetime to travel around the world, open to every major continent on earth, each of it has its own unique beauty, but I have to say that Canada beats them all. Granted, I’m biased, I am a ninth generation Torontonian. With my ancestors came over from England and Ireland, and settled here in Toronto, it wasn’t even called Toronto, it was called York. I’m proud of my family lineage, but even more proud of my country, as I have family scattered all across it from one end the other (my mom has 11 brothers and sisters, each one of them had at least eight children, my mother being the exception, only having myself and my sister… as time went on, family members moved to different parts of the country, and I now have family in literally every province and territory, another reason why I wanted to do this, to meet family members I’ve never met before, having 101st cousins alone). If ever you get a chance, don’t travel outside of Canada, explore your country, I promise you I won’t regret it, and if you want any advice, feel free to respond, I’ll be happy to help if I can! Now get out there and start traveling, now that Covid is coming to a close, we can finally move again!

I'm from Japan! I have my 25 year- Canadian friend who was born and lived for 20 years in Newfoundland! What a beautiful place!! Thank you for sharing this film!!

I am coming to Newfoundland & Nova Scotia in June on a tour, this has made me wish time away 👍

Canada is blessed with natural beauty from coast-to-coast, definitely would love to visit Newfoundland one day.

Turn down the volume on the music, turn up the volume on the voices

I live in NY. I have family in ST. Johns NFLD. My mother was born and raised in NFLD. I finally got a chance 3 years ago to visit. I really was amazed how beautiful it is

I’ve never been to Newfoundland (I’m from BC) but it looks so beautiful! I definitely want to go there one day!

Wow absolutely beautiful video, I’m from Newfoundland, my hometown is called Trepassey. I live in St. John’s now and yes there is so much to do, so much beautiful landscape it would take half the year or longer to visit everywhere lol. Thank you for loving Newfoundland, I’m very proud to be a Newfoundlander. 😍 Peace and Love🙂♥️💕💚

As a Newfie, I'm so glad you guys actually left St Johns and see the province. Most tourists come and only see St Johns, which mind you, does need to be seen. It's so old and historic. But places like Twillingate and other smaller outport towns are what makes Newfoundland, Newfoundland. Great video keep It up, look forward to watching the rest of your videos.

We visited Gros Morne in 2018 and completely fell in love with this beautiful place. Now, almost 3 years later we’ve decided we are moving to Newfoundland in spring 2021. I didn’t think I could be more excited to move to such an incredible place but this video got me even more excited!

My husband and I live in Alberta. We went to Newfoundland because of all the beautiful pictures we seen. They didn't do it justice. It was more beautiful than we could've imagined. What's even better are the people. They are so friendly, thoughtful and kind. For example we went in the summer. We went to this one restaurant/bar that had live music. We were at the door and were looking for a table. There wasn't a free table. But a group of people seen us and told us they'd make room at their table so we could sit, eat and listen to the great band they had ! I'll never forget it. So if you want to go to a place that is beautiful, fun, great food/music and fabulous people go to Newfoundland. We are even thinking of moving there.

I am absolutely awed at your representation of Newfoundland... absolutely amazing job! This video is so different, so real, and raw. It shows what we are about, and how very accommodating, accepting, and loving that we really are! Fantastic job!

Im amazed about the quality of this video, National Geogrphic feels envy about it 😉. seriously good quality, congrats.

Yes b’y some gud of a vid here I’m a Newfie me self and man don’t I love it

Great great awesome job. Thanks for showing us one the worlds must exciting and beautiful country in such and accurate way. Now I’m convinced that my next trip will be the great country of Canada. Greetings from Mexico.

There is no place like Canada to travel... I stay local .. and one day i hope see Newfouland... Canada Tourism Rocks no should go to out Country before they have had opportunity to see Canada ... it need to changed it needs to be enjoyed.. thanks for view of St. Johns.......

Thank you for beautiful picture, My wife is Newfoundlander and I’m Korean... we leave in S.Korea and we wish to going back soon.

I live in Ontario. I had a friend years ago that decided to go to school in Newfoundland. She loved it there so much, that she never came back.

What memories that was the same pub we got screeched in on our visit in 2017 . We are soon going back from Lindsay Ontario on a three week road trip.

Thank you for sharing this amazing video!

hi i live in newfoundland i love these videos and the colorful houses are called jelly bean row houses

It was great to support this group of young people on their adventure.

hello host! this video is really amazing experience! i love Canada specially this Newfoundland. sent you here full love and support! seeeere yeah

Going to visit Newfoundland next week! Thank you for the amazing video! ;-)

Canada seems like the promised land--especially this island. So quaint.

Amazing video, thank you, guys!

You don't come to Newfoundland for the weather. Remember that and just enjoy the diversity of the place.

Good job everyone. We really need to know about the holiday spots and tourism in Canada. I as a traveler, have visited the USA many time for holiday and tourist exploration but now I’m asking myself why I didn’t make it to Canada ! I really appreciate your efforts because I know well how much difficult and challenging to come up with such a great work of documenting and videotaping like your videos. Greetings from Qatar 🇶🇦

My grandmother and her siblings grew up here. My mom and I grew up in the states but I'm proud of my Canadian ancestors. ❤️

I am loving your videos!!! Greetings from the Philippines!!!

Looks absolutely incredible!!! Can't wait to get up there in August on my motorcycle!!!

Im from New Zealand, I married a Newfie, shes good!

i just moved to nl from ontario its beautiful😍😍

Sure i lives in Newfoundland b'y

Beautiful people live in beautiful place and great country👍🥰❤️ I’m from Taiwan, hope to see Newfoundland in this life time. 🙏 God bless All🌈❤️

It's on my bucket list to visit Newfoundland. The landscape is unbelievable.

My niece got married in Newfoundland. The family lived in Dunstable, England. Moved to Toronto. Haven't seen them since the 90s. If I had the money, time and passport I would go visit. Be interesting to see what the locals are like. Stand out with my English accent.

I became interested in St John's because of the TV series Hudson and Rex. It is lovely to look at other than the English countryside.Newfoundland should be seen more.I can't actually travel there so it's really Good being shown around in this way .Thanks.

After traveling all of Canada, is Newfoundland your favorite province/territory? I have also traveled to all of the provinces/territories except Nunavut but not as in depth as you two have. I live in KY and need to get back there. Back in 2007 when "Ice Road Truckers" had just aired its first show, its main star, Alex Debogorski, graciously invited me to spend a full week with him and his family. We met on a ferry crossing the Mackenzie River on 07/07/07, my birthday. People in Canada are great and I actually am 25% Canadian as my grandmother was from Berlin/Kitchener, ON.

I live in newfoundland

Beutiful! thank you u guys! Good job! Have seen some of your videos.. very informative and entertaining. Seen your blog of Regina, Saskatchewan.. and others. Keep up the good work!

I was born in St. John's......you can say Newfoundland is beautiful but, you have to see it to believe it.

What a delightful series of videos! I'm going to "go west" with you. In the 1980s, I had the great fortune to go with a friend to eastern Canada, in a small plane. We visited his friends in St. John's, spent 2 days on PEI and a full day/night in Quebec City. It was glorious. My friend calculated that, using the "Grand Circle" route, our flight from San Francisco to St. John's, was almost one-half of the distance to South Africa. Wow! The flight, east/west, OVER the island to/from St. John's, is something I'll never forget. I think of it as "forbidden beauty." The forestation is dense, and wisps of fog work their way inland, from the coast ... eerie, but stunningly beautiful. Flight Control, at Gander, checked in with us at 30-minute intervals, just to be sure that we weren't looking for an emergency landing spot. What a great service. Being on the west coast, I've visited B.C ., often. But, I have no experience with the middle Provinces. Quarantine/Lock Down, has its advantages. I'm going to visit Canada!

My Mom is a Canadian citizen and hasn't been back since I was a child, 25 years ago. I have a family of my own now and we are returning together this year. I couldn't be more excited, it's going to be a very special trip.

Viewing in Sept 2020. Beautiful video but the music was way too loud throughout. Otherwise loved the video.

I LOVED my month in Newfoundland and can’t wait to go back.

These videos would be more interesting if they feature more of the places than their faces.

and you stayed with Doris and Tom Sheppard in Trout River!! They are VERY special people :) So very happy you loved our beautiful province.

The most beautiful country on earth!

This Video inspired me to go visit every Province and Territory in Canada

The Iapetus Suture runs right through Newfoundland. This is where rock from what is now Europe and rock from North America crashed into one another and new lands were formed by the fusion of these once-distant lands. This is why we have mantle rock thrust upon the continental rock. We can see this near Gros Mourne as well as near Botwood, Notre Dame Bay. A new ocean was being created just off the coast of Newfoundland (just a little south of the Iapetus Suture line and this ocean would go on to be the Atlantic. Newfoundland was pivotal in providing evidence for plate tectonics (first called Continental Drift Theory). The ophiolite complex of Gros Mourne and Botwood were crucial for this as well as the fact that Newfoundland has what was referred to as “Pacific Trilobites” on its west coast but Atlantic Trilobites on it’s East Coast (Manuel’s River is filled with these). There was no explanation for Newfoundland having both until geologists realized that the west part of Newfoundland was once very, very distant from the Wast coast and they collided to form one land mass. Newfoundland not only has an amazing history as far as our people go, but it’a also a treasure trove for Geologists from all over the world. Newfoundland is amazing. love my home!! ❤️❤️

Amazing video! I am Canadian and have never been. I am going now. Just beautiful. Subscribed!

Newfoundland is majestic and can feel like you are in Europe

oh, new fun land!!!

I’m Irish and married a Newfie girl. Moved here with our 3 kids several years ago and will likely never live in Ireland again. Can’t imagine I’d ever want to leave Newfoundland.

Stop leaving Labrador out of our province It’s Nfld &LABRADOR !!!!!!!!

As someone from the USA's mid Atlantic, it blows me away that this is also a part of the east coast. Granted, it's about a 30 hour drive north of me, but it really looks nothing like what I've always considered the "east coast" to be. At a glance the landscapes showcased here remind me of British Columbia or Alaska. It really is hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that Newfoundland shares the same coastline as Florida and New Jersey! 🤣🤣

Don't forget to check out our other videos about Newfoundland, such as the best things to do in St. John's! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hDHnVDYG85k.html Not to mention, we have a bunch of articles to help you plan your trip as well over at www.mustdocanada.com

Absolutely amazing!!! Thank you so much for sharing!

This is a generic commercial introduction to NL. Newfoundland is an amazing island. Though why no mention of Labrador? Do your own research of the province and explore off beaten paths. Then you always wish to return as I have for over a decade.

I am Mexican and I just fell in love with Newfoundland! I just came here because I am dating a girl from there who is very cool lol but now I really want to go there for the city and culture as well.

.........Everything about your video is beautiful and spectacular scenery...cast is great !!! But can't you realize your music is too d..mn loud for us to hear much of the dialog ??? A common mistake in much of today's videography......

Love from sweden ,, AMAZING VIDEO ❤❤❤❤❤

The audio is not balanced. It also isn't necessary to have blaring music for the entire duration of the video.

Thank you guys for this Video! This pretty short movie made my thoughts about Immigration to Canada stronger! And one of the provinces to be in for me is Newfoundland! Awesome nature!

Newfoundlander here. Loved the Video . Great representation of Newfoundland. 🇨🇦👍. I've spend many days in Woody Point in Gros Morne . Kevin Barnes featured in this video is actual my relation :D

Proud to be Canadian, Irish et Québécois, Merci.

Newfoundland is home for me, I am local on the Burin Peninsula, located on the islands most southern points and the gateway to the french islands it is a wonderful place to call home. I just watched all your videos and loved everyone of them, Canada is such a wonderful, beautiful and diverse country that I’m so proud to be a part off, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience traveling this amazing country. 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 🇲🇽 🇬🇧 🇮🇪 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇷🇺 🇦🇺 🇳🇿 🇵🇷 🇧🇷 🇪🇬

I'm fr CANADA_love living here all my life 💖)

If you plan to visit/see a lot of Newfoundland and Labrador.... what you need is time... lots of it (minimum 2-3 weeks). Just to drive from the South East of the Island of Newfoundland (St.John's) to the north ie St.Anthony (~1000km), takes approximately 10 hours... That does not include sight seeing, eating or rest stops, etc. You cannot drive from the island of Newfoundland over to Labrador, you have to take a ferry (~90 min). To drive across Labrador SE to western area (ie, Wabush) takes approximately 14 hours. (I've never driven in Labrador myself but I've heard that cellular service is not the best in the rural areas, so plan well.) There are so many things to see and do that weren't in this video. Smaller communities are the best unless you like the nightlife/city life. As a time saver, anyone visiting should really research first to make a plan of what interests you the most. The weather can be harsh, especially in winter. To visit, best (warmest) weather is mid June to end of September. We say you can have '4 seasons in a day', so even in the summer, you'll need a variety of clothing options (summer clothes, layers, rainwear, gloves, hats, scarves, etc. It's not unusual to need a coat/gloves in the early morning, shorts & sunglasses by noon, raingear an or two hour later). If you plan to drive from mainland Canada to Newfoundland (island) it's a 6 hour ferry ride that can be quite costly($400+) but it's cheaper than flying and then renting a car because most rental companies here charge by the kilometer and it's over 1000km SE to NW Newfoundland. This is one of the best/friendliest/picturesque places on planet earth. You will love it here.

Went to Canada in 1997 for our silver wedding a tour from the east to the west best holiday ever

ВПОДОБАЙКА !!! Thanks for the best video of Canada!

Proud Newfoundlander

Matt and Karla are just amazing and I love these couple. They are most beautiful than any place on this earth. So keep Smiling... I still love your background music. Love and Hugs from INDIA

They didn't venture up to Labrador. :(

I was born in Old Perlican in 1956 and have sailed past Newfoundland on the Empresses of Britain and Canada and the Stefan Batory - the nearest I ever got to going back. My dad was the doctor in Old Perlican and it truly was a very basic place....one phone line, for instance! Must make an effort to return from the UK to see it.

wonderful video, thanks for sharing

I'm proudly from Nova Scotia, but I have a lot of Nl history in my blood as my dad is a Newfoundlander

Great job. Beautiful video.

I went there for a week 15 years ago during summer and I still dream about going back again with a RV.

Far away to the west. Where the sun shines bright. No wars. No slavery. But peace and freedom. There you will find...VINLAND.

Watching this video makes me realize I really am lucky to live in Newfoundland

Im from here ill really show you or tell you some great things to do and see and without a cliche over produced video. The reality tour

I got screeched in wasn’t that bad and proud of it

This is amazing video. Thank you! I'm from Siberia, and I should go to Newfoundland!

wow, thats a great start! Look forward to further explore Canada with you!

I wanna go thre hopefully this yr when everything is back to normal🙏

Que lugar más increíble, quiciera estar ahi!

Just beautiful
