Great area, great scenery - Everything on time, flexible and very friendly, lucky with the sun. In the Nachsaisin everything is closed (public toilets, restaurants, kiosks), but was not to be expected otherwise.

Best decision traveling with elderly - We were traveling on a cruise with my mother who is 86 and cannot walk too far or too fast. Having a personal guide and driver really made the trip not only possible, but enjoyable. Our guide, Neda, picked us up from the pier and was very informative and considerate. She took us to all the major points of interest and did not rush us and let us take our time to soak in the beautiful sights. We so appreciate having Neda take us around and couldn’t have asked for a better guide.

Private Tour the only way to go - An excellent stress free tour of Peggy's Cove, Mahone Bay and Lunenburg. Great driver with lotss of local knowledge and the private tour allowed us to customize how much time we spent in each locale.

Halifax is awesome! - We had a great experience in Halifax! We learned a lot and were able to see some amazing sights. It was so nice to have a tour with the 3 in our party and a tour guide who knew so much about the area. We would highly recommend!

Fall colors in anundance - Beautiful scenery. Clean car, courteous driver. Lots of driving with very little stretch time. Peggy’s Cove had ample time to wander/take pictures. UNESCO sites could have used an hour or two to explore. This may have been negotiable before tour had we known. Our driver did pull over to give us quick photo opportunities. He was very gracious.

Hard to say as people we... - Hard to say as people we were with are mobility impaired. We did not go to lunnenburg. Peggycove very nice. I think 5 hrs would be cutting it close to have gone to lumnenburg plus Peggy cove Driver drove us around Halifax instead Driver was difficult to understand tho. Also car was a bit. small for 4 older people

Irresponsible - We booked this tour because we were going to be in Halifax as a port stop on a cruise. Communication was good so I had high hopes. Our ship docked at one end of the terminal and our driver was at the other end so we had to walk for at least 20 minutes. We met our driver and the car was very comfortable and he provided lots of water. We repeatedly told him what time we had to be back at the ship. All the stops were great. At the last stop in Lunemburg, we again mentioned the time. We walked around for maybe 20 minutes and then went back to the car. When he put the return address in the navigation system, we could see that the return trip was going to be 1 hour and 30 minutes. At the time, we had 45 minutes to get there! When we mentioned this to him, he started going at least 20 km over the speed limit and called, I guess, the owner of the tour company. They decided that as long as we were back by 30 minutes after we said, the ship would wait. They had no idea what they were talking about! We made it back at 2:50 and did not see our ship. We ran through the terminal and then remembered that we had tendered. All of the tour busses had arrived back at the same time so luckily the tender service was behind. We were the last four people on the LAST tender. Do not book this tour if you have time constraints!

Very disappointed customer - This tour was a great disappointment The vehicle arrived and was not appropriate for 4 people. The vehicle was dirty The driver was from India and had absolutely no no knowledge of of Halifax and basically talked about himself. He shared no information about Halifax or the sites we visited. The people in the back seat could not understand his accent. We expected a local person who understood the culture and history of Nova Scotio / Halifax. He could just have been a taxi driver. This tour spoiled our entire short day in Canada I have taken other Viator tours which were wonderful in a Mercedes van with interesting and knowledgeable drivers. I feel I deserve a refund. I plan to file a more formal grievance. Signed. Dr R Feldman. 516 476 3986

Not a narrative tour, just a nice driver - Nice Uber driver, not a tour guide. Arrived in a car too small for 4 adults, wasted an hour switching cars and wanted an additional money at the end to pay for his gas. There was NO narrative, would have been a lot less expensive to hire an Uber driver. Would not recommend this tour company.
