Top things to do in New Brunswick

Taste fresh lobster in Shediac

Shediac, on the west coast of New Brunswick, is known as the 'Lobster Capital of the World' and, as such, is a superb place to sample fresh lobster. There are many fine restaurants serving locally caught lobster, as well as scallops and salmon. If you are visiting in July then try to time your visit with the annual lobster festival, with music, entertainment and a huge lobster banquet for 1,000 people. For the adventurous, board a traditional fishing boat to experience a day in the life of a lobster fisherman. Discover how the lobster is trapped, hauled in and prepared for the return trip, then return to shore to enjoy a feast of flavourful lobster cooked in a traditional outdoor cauldron.

Whale watching in the Bay of Fundy

Home to the largest tides in the world, the Bay of Fundy has a rich marine life including finback, minke and humpback whales, porpoises, dolphins and seals. Sea birds also abound off the coastline. Wildlife-watching cruises can be taken from St Andrews with the vessel navigating through the many islands of the West Isles archipelago on the way to the feeding grounds of whales.

"This was a fabulous trip from beginning to end with charming and attentive local guides throughout and wonderful accommodation. The dawn balloon ride over Bagan was particularly magical as was the opportunity to get very close to the fishermen on Inle Lake – a photographer's dream!
Mr Peter Bradbrook"

"The highlights were seeing the rainforest for the first time, the knowledge of our local guides was also amazing. Costa Rica has been the holiday of a lifetime for me…I cannot fault the service.
Mrs Tooley"

"The whole holiday was a superb experience and now a fantastic memory. We are currently planning our next trip and without a shadow of a doubt it will be with Cox & Kings again.
Alfonsina Monachino"

"Too many to mention. Loved the whole tour. Great informative guide, well planned, great sights and music.
Ms Angela Mindel"

"Our trip to Peru was the most exciting, interesting holiday I have ever had – in fact it was a life-changing experience.
Ms Lucas"

"Seeing two leopards up the same tree with a kill was a magical moment!
Mrs Deborah Godfrey"

"We cannot fault any part of the holiday, everything ran as smoothly as it could. The accomodation and the tour guide were excellent and we would dearly love to travel with Cox & Kings again. One of the many highlights were the hotels which were stunning, as well as the trip in Ha Long Bay and the attention to detail. Many thanks for the room upgrades and little extras we received in recognition of our wedding anniversary.
Mr and Mrs Keith"

"The whole trip was very informative, enjoyable, not at all rushed, well co-ordinated and totally pleasurable.
Mrs Christine Muir"

"I would particularly like to commend our tour guide, Yogesh who really made our holiday special. No request was too much for him. He had a brilliant knowledge of the history and culture of India, an hilarious sense of humour, endless patience and an insightful grasp of what we, as foreigners might find difficult, different, interesting or puzzling. Our grateful thanks to him.
Ms Lesley Wheeler"

"Guides and staff excellent, friendly and went out of their way to be helpful.
Dr A Graham"

"Seeing the citadel of Macchu Picchu in the flesh at close hand ranks with the awesome sights of the Taj Mahal, the Great Pyramids and the Treasury in Petra for instance. To this must be added the visit to see the Condors up close. Fabulous.
Mr Derek Lowdon"

"If we had to pick one [inspirational] moment it would be walking out of the Siq at Petra to see the Treasury. But to be honest there were so many amazing places it is difficult to pick one out.
Mr Christopher Clark"

"The whole India experience was amazing but nothing prepares you for your first sight of the Taj Mahal and sunrise.
Mr Tony Dellow"

"Arriving at the Shamwari Game Reserve was the high point of the holiday. Luxurious accommodation in a superb location. Great service, food and game drives combined to make a truly one-off experience.
Mrs Janice McGlashon"
