Witzend Tours & Adventures is Shediac’s home for ghost tours, historic walks, escape rooms, adventure trails, and a full-service concierge for every experience the Greater Shediac region has to offer.
We are the adventure arm of Shediac Wonderland, and our business is putting you pleasantly, exhilaratingly, memorably at the end of yours. Through locked rooms that demand your sharpest thinking. Through ghost tours where Shediac’s shadows do the talking. Through historic walks that peel back two centuries of stories. Through outdoor adventure trails that are part scavenger hunt, part escape room, part treasure map.
And when you surface, blinking, wondering what to do next, our concierge team will point you toward the best of everything else this region has to offer. From the warmest saltwater beaches in Canada to lobster cruises on the bay, from chocolate factories to drive-in theatres, from Acadian cultural villages to winery tours. We know the territory. We will get you there.
Every town has its ghosts. Shediac’s are simply more interesting than most.
Our Ghost Tours take you through the streets after sunset, past historic sites where spirits are said to linger, through shadowed corners where the stories get stranger the further you walk. Your guide knows the whispered legends, the unexplained incidents, the buildings that have reputations their owners would rather not discuss.
This is not a haunted house with plastic skeletons. This is real history, told in the dark, in the places where it happened. Spine-tingling, yes. But also deeply, satisfyingly weird. Carroll would have approved.

You’ve arrived in Shediac. The beach is beautiful. The lobster’s legendary. But what else? Where do you go for a sunset cruise? Who rents paddleboards? Is that winery worth the drive? What about a day trip to PEI? Where does the ghost walk on the beach start?
These are excellent questions. We have the answers, and better still, we can book most of them for you on the spot.
Witzend’s concierge service exists because tourists deserve more than a rack of brochures. Visit our booth at the Homarus Centre, and our team will build your perfect day, your perfect week, or your perfect spontaneous afternoon from a curated roster of the region’s best experiences.
Shediac Wonderland is a family of story-driven businesses created by Sébastien Després and Heather Wright. Le Moque-Tortue (a board game bistro), Morse et Marteaux BBQ Smokehouses & Lobster Shacks (four locations throughout Shediac), Le Griffon (bed & breakfast), The Neptune (a Drive-In Theatre), Adorable Chocolat (an artisanal chocolaterie), Bazar Neptune (a Saturday market), and Witzend Tours & Adventures (tours, escape rooms, and concierge), and the Shediac Renaissance Faire: each one a chapter of a larger story about what happens when a community decides to take play seriously.
