Beautiful spot! - Peggy’s Cove lighthouse is an unforgettable destination and most tourists will go there. Worth the crowds! My son had a blast climbing the boulders. The citadel was a bigger surprise. Delightful fort staffed well with reenactment soldiers and a true museum.

Small van tour of Peggy’s Cove - I have taken many Viator tours. Most in a big group with a guide. We have a group of 28 people. Instead of 2 bus, they gave us 5 vans. I feel like this is more like a taxi with the driver giving some commentary of the area. The communication with owner of this tour was excellent and he was easy to work with. I’m sure the quality of the tour varies in each car. My driver was very brief in his commentaries. Our time at Peggy’s Cove was rushed (50 minutes). I recommend taking a bigger group tour rather than small van from Viator..

Displeased -
Viator should not put 4 people in a sedan coupe. Three in the back seat was extremely uncomfortable, even more so with the fast driving habit of our tour guide. It was a pretty drive to the Lighthouse, but didn't enjoy it because of being uncomfortable.
Visiting the cemetery where the Holocaust deceased are buried was the most interesting part of the tour. I will give our guide credit for his knowledge on the subject. But he was late, arrived 10 minutes after the tour was to begin and we were advised to be there 10 minutes early and we were. In addition, he did not walk up to the terminal like other tour guides did. We had to walk out to parking lot to locate him. After we did, he did not introduce himself. I introduced myself and my 3 traveling partners. In the car he mainly conversed to our male passenger in the front seat. Us 3 women in the back seat was just along for the ride!

Disappointing tour - Our tour itinerary was great however our guide Adnan did not give us any information on our tour. He did not tell us anything and when asking questions we got a simple yes or no answer. We did not learn anything and were just dropped at each location and told to walk around without any explanation. Our guide was simply a driver and not a certified tour guide as described when we booked. It was very disappointing.
