The Labradorian
The Labradorian is a 6day 5 night all-inclusive vacation. Local, knowledgeable guides will lead you along coastal paths with spectacular views, often boasting Ice Bergs, whales, seals and other marine life. Each day promises a combination of hiking, visiting historic sites and local cuisine and accommodations. We will follow the coastline through the small communities of the Labrador Straits visiting Point Amour Lighthouse, Red Bay's Parks Canada Site, and Battle Harbour Historic District. We will walk footpaths carved out by pioneers of this great land and experience the culture and lifestyle of the people of Labrador.
