General

There are several places where we can stop for washroom breaks and chances for ladies to freshen their makeup if desired. It’s always good to look your best when taking those pictures.

These tours are private therefore we can stop as often as you wish within the scheduled tour duration.

We have always recommended that our clients stay away from the Tourist traps. We have places that will cater to each individual taste: Lobster, Mussels, Calamari, Beer, etc.

There are many places too often bypassed by the ordinary tourist. One such place is the French village with its unique view of the ocean. There is often more than one stop before we arrive at our main destination.

After Swissair Flight 111 tragically crashed off the coast of Nova Scotia near Peggy’s Cove on September 2, 1998, memorials were established at Whalesback, in the County of Halifax and Bayswater, in the County of Lunenburg. The Whalesback memorial, near Peggy’s Cove, is approximately 35 km from Halifax.

Ours is best. You travel at your own pace, stop when you want to and we treat you with kindness and courtesy. We want you to be able to tell others about our great service. We will never herd our clients along like cattle. We always strive to make your tour truly simple, affordable and enjoyable. Just imagine your own private tour.

Our many tours cover all of the sights and attractions throughout Halifax and the surrounding area. Some of these include Citadel Hill, Public Gardens, the Halifax Explosion site and much, much more. Ask us about any sights you wish see during your visit and we can recommend the best tour for you and your group. We can also customize any tours to include specific sights or attractions upon request.

Yes. We always go to any lengths necessary to ensure the comfort and safety of everyone in your group. Unlike other big companies we do not charge extra for providing a children’s car seat. (My wife and I have four children and we fully understand the importance and convenience of having car seats available.)

Wear whatever is comfortable. It is recommended to have a sturdy pair of broken-in trail shoes, boots, or sneakers. It is preferable to dress in layers and wear clothing that will wick away perspiration and keep you dry and comfortable

Not much, remember our trips are all inclusive. We do suggest you bring appropriate clothing to fit the season and a day pack to carry extra snacks and water.
