Joggins Fossil Institute - Four Hour Tour

Have you experienced the cool Bay of Fundy air on your skin, felt the crunch of rocks under your feet, and tasted a deliciously fresh home-made lunch, all while learning about 300 million year old fossils? At the Joggins Fossil Cliffs, you can.


Our four hour tour package includes the three E's: exploration, education, and enjoyment. Previously held just once a month, these four hour tours have increased in availability!

Explore the Classic Section of the Joggins Fossil Cliffs with an experienced guide and discover million year old tetrapod footprints, large fossilized trees, and primitive seed ferns.

Included in the tour is a gourmet, freshly made lunch from our own Roundhouse Cafe. This lunch includes a drink, sandwich, fruit, and a treat! Our chefs, Joyce and Corey, can accommodate dietary preferences.

Our first four hour tour of the 2012 season will be taking place on Sunday, June 10th at 9:30am. To book a spot on this tour, or to enquire about booking another tour, please contact us at 1-902-251-2727, extension 231, or through e-mail at bookings@jogginsfossilcliffs.net
