Exceptional - The day tour with Evan with 3 other travelers was exceptional. We enjoyed Peggy's Cove before the crowds arrived. Drove through Mahone Bay slowly to see much of the Scarecrow Festival on the way to Lunenberg. Evan suggested a great restaurant for lunch. The drive through Nova Scotia was enhanced by the information that Evan shared about the province. We enjoyed the visit through the Annapolis valley and the areas where the original Acadians lived. Evan was a charm.

Magical day of villages, nature and touring - This tour was fantastic. Ian was a really great guide, friendly and full of interesting information about all the places we visited and the places we passed through along the way. It was very scenic all the way. There was plenty of time at Peggy’s Cove and Lunenburg - Ian gave good recommendations for sights, timing and importantly where to get a good lunch. After lunch there was more lovely village sightseeing - the small group decided to go around the bay to Grand Pre rather than a winery visit, which turned out to very well as we got to witness exceptional flight displays by sandpipers waiting for the tide to go out - it was magical. We also saw a sturgeon leaping out of the water several times. I highly recommend this tour, if you are thinking about it, do it!

A memorable day - This could not have been a more pleasant and enjoyable experience. I read in other reviews about the tour guide Evan and so we were very lucky to have gotten him on our tour. He was excellent, very knowledgeable, entertaining and a wonderful young man. Thank you Evan and to our travel mates from Windsor for making the day memorable and special.

Beautiful Nova Scotia! - This tour is a nice small group tour very informative and personal. Our tour guide/ van driver (Lori) was friendly, knowledgeable and sensitive to my husband’s mobility issues. He took us to a lot of places and explained the history or points of interest . Great experience!

Definitely the way to go - What a delightful way to see Peggy’s Cove, Lunenberg, Wolfville and points in between. Getting to enjoy the scenery without worrying about driving was great. Anna was a great guide, friendly and informative. It was terrific to have such a small group (5 and they limit their groups to 7) so everybody could chat. We had about the right amount of time for each stop. At Wolfville we were given 3 choices of what we individually wanted to do. Our group split up with some going to a winery and some enjoying the town. A long day but well worth it.

Peggy's Cove plus the Citadel and Titanic Cemetery - Enjoyed the small van. Peggy's Cove took up most of the time on the tour, and it was lovely, but not enough time there to shop and see the lighthouse and scenery. The Titanic Cemetery was interesting and the Citadel was fascinating. Our guide did his best to guide us through the crowded cemetery. I stayed longer at the Citadel to explore, saying good-bye to the Guide who was very courteous.
