About this listen

In this episode of The Jason Boull Travel Podcast, we dive into one of Canada’s most charming and culturally rich destinations — St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador — with expert guest Della Tully from Tourism Canada.

Just five hours from the UK, this Atlantic Canada hidden gem is bursting with Irish heritage, jellybean-coloured houses, dramatic ocean views, world-class seafood, and some of the warmest hospitality in North America.

From whale watching in Iceberg Alley to hiking the East Coast Trail, sipping local brews, and joining in a quirky “screech-in” ceremony, this episode uncovers why St. John’s is perfect for couples, families, solo adventurers — and anyone looking for an authentic, unplugged travel experience.

We also share:

  • ✈️ Flight tips from the UK & Ireland (including WestJet’s direct service)
  • 🌊 When to see puffins, whales, and icebergs
  • 🍽️ What to eat, drink, and where to soak in the local vibe
  • 🚗 Why to pre-book car hire & tours — and how to make your trip stress-free
  • 🔥 Our top tips for first-timers (spoiler: don’t skip Signal Hill or George Street!)

👉 Whether you're planning your next Canadian adventure or just love discovering new places, this is your complete guide to St. John’s — told through expert insight and real travel passion.
