An island best shared with those who know it

Tom and Chuck have spent a combined seven summers exploring Newfoundland and have guided groups of 50 to 56 travelers on four previous tours. NOW Tourz is how they continue to share it, one carefully planned summer at a time.

The caravan is limited to 26 participating rigs, so every stop feels personal and nothing feels rushed. You’ll travel together from North Sydney, Nova Scotia, through the island’s most remarkable places and its best-kept secrets.

Why Newfoundland

The scenery draws you in. The people bring you back.

Tom & Cindy and Chuck & Maggie are returning for their fourth and fifth summers, and it’s easy to see why. Newfoundland has breathtaking scenery, fascinating history and real adventure.

Above all, it has some of the warmest and most welcoming people you will ever meet. The attractions are exceptional, but the people are what make the journey unforgettable.

Chuck & Maggie Helwig

Charles (Chuck) and Margaret (Maggie) Helwig have called Dover, Delaware home for the past thirty years. Chuck was born in Washington, DC, and Maggie just outside DC in Maryland, and both grew up in the Maryland–DC area. Married for sixty years, they have lived in Maryland, Massachusetts, Virginia and now Delaware. They have a daughter, two sons, eight grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren.

Chuck spent 29 years as a claims manager with Nationwide Insurance before retiring in 2006. Maggie worked for a short time after they married and has been a stay-at-home mom since their daughter was born.

They have camped off and on for many years and have been Airstreaming for the last twenty, joining seventeen caravans and co-leading three.
