If you're looking for a waterfall you'll be disappointed, but take the jet boat ride. We just got back from our cruise and one of our stops was St. John. I went on the boat ride with my 2 children aged 23 and 20. We had a great time. The owners are very friendly and helpful and the boat driver... more

I live here in Saint John NB, and I believe that the Reversing Falls is a good place to go check out. I believe that every city/town has it's own unique features and places to see.

looking for something cheap and a freak of nature? Check out the reversing falls. I researched it before seeing it and was not dissapointed.

The trick is to view the river from the same spot when the tide is at it's highest and the river is actually going the opposite way even quicker and rougher than... more

My husband and I did this on Sept. 10, 2005, and this was the worst part of our vacation in NB. It is a mystery to me as to why the government of NB promotes this company. In all of the ads, you see pictures of waves and people in a boat. What you don't see is that this attraction... more

This was truly a disappointment as there is not much to look at. Just a small area of rapids, which go in one direction and then if you come back hours later they are going in the opposite direction. then there is the large factory in the background means your pictures will look pretty bad. However the jet boat ride... more
