Fun, Informative, and Totally Worth It! - The Halifax Harbour Hopper Tour was another highlight of our trip—and definitely worth the money. It’s such a fun and unique way to explore the city!
You start on land, taking in historic landmarks and beautiful views, then splash right into the harbour as the vehicle transforms into a boat. It’s a cool experience whether you’re a first-time visitor or a local looking to see the city from a new perspective.
Our tour guide, Adina, was fantastic—full of energy, super knowledgeable, and made the whole ride engaging and fun. Big shoutout to Captain Geoff as well for the smooth and safe ride!
We learned so much about the history of Halifax while also having a great time. Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for something a little different that mixes sightseeing with storytelling.

Halifax Harbor Hopper land and sea tour - My son and I had an excellent ride on the Halifax Harbor Hopper tour of the city and harbor. The driver Liam and guide Abby were awesome and very entertaining. I was a little worried about boarding as I have some mobility and balance issues but although there were a lot of steps, they weren't too high for my knees to handle and the railings were very secure. It got a little chilly once we hit the water, and prepare to get wet if you sit in front.

Fun and informative tour! - A fun and educational ride! Includes many of the major land sites of the city before moving into the water. Captain Kristin and 1st mate Katherine were amazing and funny and informative, and no one fell overboard!

Cool way to experience Halifax by land & sea. - A really nice way for a family to experience the city and the harbor, especially if you have limited time-you get land & sea! Crew was cute-brought their personalities. Easy to access from waterfront, runs on time, stayed dry, a different way to view Halifax-higher than cars. Great to get off feet and avoid walking the hills for an hour-lots to see. Highly recommend.

Interesting trip - Despite it being a very cold and windy it, the tour guide and captain/driver made it a great tour. I do think that you could have some blankets for seniors to use.

They abuse email - The tour was good, but those memories have faded after my frustration about getting daily emails from them. I never signed up for them, I live thousands of miles away and in spite of multiple attempts to unsubscribe, I continue to get emails. So beware, if you sign up for their tour, your inbox will be constantly bombarded.
