All of my tours are Private, Narrated, Personal Tours, you have the van and guide all to yourself. It is YOUR tour and I can customize the itinerary, as you wish. (You Decide) I love to show our Historic Halifax which is an intimate city that retains the ease of a small town from the Harbor front to Victorian Public Gardens, it is large enough to have the trappings of a capital city, yet small enough that many of its sights can be easily seen.
