Over the top comfort and experience - Outstanding tour. Fantastic guide and comfortable van/bus. Johnathan/Bill was amazing and a good source of education and history. The Park was exceptional-flowers were gorgeous! The Titanic cemetery was sobering to say the least but Johnathan gave a fantastic narrative. The experience at Peggy’s Cove was about 20 minutes too short, mainly because we enjoyed the park and gardens too much! Food was fantastic at Shaws for a cold Tall Ship and a lobster roll!

Great experience - Our guide was Mo. We experienced our tour in a small group, very personalized. The smaller group size made it wonderful for asking questions and getting in and out of highly traveled tourist sites. Mo was so knowledgeable and interesting. Would definitely recommend. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars was I thought that meet up could be communicated a little bit better about where the meeting point should be. Ie: at the picnic table, or at the square center of park.

James, our tour guide,... - James, our tour guide, was punctual and even called just before arriving to confirm our meeting spot, which we appreciated. He was knowledgeable about Halifax and shared interesting information with enthusiasm throughout the day. However, his driving left a lot to be desired. He frequently had to look at his phone for directions, which made us a bit uneasy and suggested he wasn’t entirely familiar with the routes to our destinations. Overall, while James was friendly and well-informed, the experience would have been more enjoyable and relaxing with more confident navigation and smoother driving.

An enjoyable half day. - We booked the Peggy"s Cove, Titanic cemetery and Citadel Hill tour. Our guide, Brittany, was fun, enthusiastic and entertaining. It would have been nice to have more time at work Peggys Cove and the citadel, but otherwise a very enjoyable half day.

Got us to the locations described - Tour was by SUV with 3 couples. It was an okay tour, and the guide did an ok job with facts. We got to all points listed in the description. Too little time in Peggy's Cove. The pickup location was confusing. It is out of the port area in a park across from a Westin. Not far, but even the info booth in Port had no idea of pick up point.

Peggy’s Cove and recovered Titanic passengers - If traveling by cruise ship, remember to check arrival times as well as ship’s departure times. This was a small group(4people) , so it was more more personalized. We were able to see many things on this tour

Bad communication. - Don't trust the website for pickup. We don't always check our email on vacation. Sat out for over 30 minutes and no show shuttle or car . Lucky a lady told that the company was bad to come into the port . She told were to meet at park. Very poor communication..I booked late and asked to put my wife's booking together. No we were in different cars. I would not recommend this company to my best enemy.
