About Us
Welcome to Target Tours: Simplified, Guided Vacations from Atlantic Canada

Greetings from Charlottetown, PEI!
Since 2009, we’ve had the joy of helping our fellow Atlantic Canadians explore the world beyond our beautiful shores. We understand the unique character of our region – the love for laughter, friendship and feeling like part of a community. That’s why we’ve dedicated ourselves to creating travel experiences that feel like taking a bit of home with you, no matter where in the world you go.

Our Story: From Bus License to World-Class Travel Experiences
I’m John Dunphy, and along with my wife Lynn, we’re the founders of Target Tours.
My background in travel stretches back to 1987 when I began my career in the travel agency business. In 2006, I obtained my commercial motor coach license. Lynn and I led our first bus tour of excited fans to a NASCAR race in New Hampshire.
This became our “Aha!” moment as we watched the passengers’ smiling faces, saw them living out their dreams and forming new friendships. In that moment, we realized we had found our true purpose. It became clear to us that guided travel isn’t just a vacation – it’s a way to enrich our lives and experience travel with like minded Atlantic Canadians.

This revelation led me and Lynn to create Target Tours in 2009, with a mission to share the joy of simplified guided vacations with as many Atlantic Canadians as possible.
We would be remiss to not mention that throughout these years, our phenomenal team has been the cornerstone of our success. From the dedicated office staff to our enthusiastic and professional Tour Directors, every member has played a pivotal role in shaping our company into what it is today.
