Remembering The Lobster Lady

​Along with her family and close friends, The Maine Tour Connection mourns the passing of our founder and president, Jeanne M. McGurn, “The Lobster Lady.”

Jeanne was a tourism star. Her optimistic spirit and warmth for all the people she knew continued into her final days.

Despite Jeanne’s no longer being with us, she made it clear she wanted the creation she loved, The Maine Tour Connection, to continue in her tradition of friendship and hospitality. Under the leadership of Chris Rackmyre and Jeanne’s faithful team of “Lobsterettes,” The Maine Tour Connection will continue.

If you want to see a moose we know where to find them.

If you want to imbibe craft beers, we’ve got the breweries.

And if you want a scenic coastal tour, it doesn’t get any better than New England. (I'm partial to the Maine coast, of course.)


Our happy tour operator clients come from all over the country to work with us.  Our goal is that your customers will be perfectly happy, too, once they have been on a tour you have had planned by The Maine Tour Connection.




We show you how to "get there from here," with a minimum of fuss and a maximum of fun.
