Excellent Tour and Wonderful Tour Guide
MICHELLE_G
, Aug 2022
Jonathon, our tour guide, was knowledgeable about the areas we visited. He was friendly and entertaining. He provided narration while we were driving to each place, then allowed us to explore each area on our own once we arrived. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in seeing Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg, and Mahone Bay.
Great time

The tour of a lifetime!

This is simply the most excellent tour to do. Our tour guide, Jonathan was charming, knowledgeable, and accommodating. He ensured that his passengers were comfortable, happy, and getting the most from this once in a lifetime experience. He provided facts and information about the places we visited, and made us laugh with humour. We visited Peggy's Cove first and he provided us with a good amount of time to see this breathtaking place. We made our way to Lunenburg following Peggy's Cove and had even more time to shop and explore this quintessentially quaint east coast town! There are many cute shops and places to have lunch. Jonathan gave us a bit extra time to soak in all the beauty! Lastly, we finished the tour in Mahone Bay with a short visit and walk through the town. Jonathan was really thoughtful to the passengers and provided a pituresque drive by taking a route that was a little off the beaten path. The trip was worth the cost and really was a once in a lifetime experience. Jonathan was friendly, fun, and thoughtful. We very much appreciated his flexibility on the tour in allowing us additional time and going beyond the 4:30 pm deadline. He routinely checked in with us to make sure we had what we needed. He put the passengers needs above his own, and he was primarily concerned with ensuring we got what we wanted out of the experience. Many thanks for making this a memorable and life changing experience! 10/10 recommend!
Nova Scotia at its Finest!!!

We will never forget Jonathan's kind and gracious manner. He was a delight to travel with. Nothing was too much trouble for him. He has a vast knowledge of Nova Scotia and its history. He was extremely informative. He has a great wisdom that shows in all he does. He made it a lovely day filled with fun and insight. Please make sure that you thank him on our behalf. Phil and Gail
Highly recommend it!

The tour was great. It is worth it especially if you're in Halifax for a short time. The combination of guided tour and time to explore on your own is a great plus. In addition, Jonathan is an excellent tour guide with a great sense of humor. Highly recommend it!

A must do trip on your Halifax adventure!
Loved the small group which gave us much more of a personal feel. Johnathan was a wealth of knowledge and an absolute natural. Most tours a very scripted but Johnathan encouraged us to ask questions and we learned so much. Great sense of humour too , that was a perfect fit for us. We celebrated our 19th anniversary that day and we're so glad we did.
Jonathan was fantastic!!

My grandson and I had the BEST day despite a bit of a damp and foggy start. Lunenburg was a delight, Peggy’s Cove was fun and the driver Johnathan was amazing. To say he is someone who likes his work is an understatement. He had stories, reflections and knowledge about the region that made the day come alive. I lived in NS for 5 years and learned a few things I hadn’t learned when I lived here. Well worth the time in my opinion.
Excellent tour guide!

Our tour guide Jonathan did an excellent job! Jonathan knows the area very well and does a great job at explaining what to do and is very knowledgeable. Jonathan did a great job at planning the day and giving us the right amount of time at our stops. Jonathan was patient and kind. We went to Peggy's cove, Lunenburg and Mahone Bay. All 3 areas are highly recommended to go see.

We did not get any information or history about the places we visited. All the guide talked about was his wife, 5 children and his job. I had to look up information on google. There was no benefit to taking this tour. I would recommend not taking this tour.

The sites where very interesting, our guide Jonathan was excellent and knowledgeable. I just didn’t appreciate being squeezed into a mini van with so many people (during Covid) we didn’t pay this amount to be so uncomfortable. Other than that the trip was very good.
A trip we will not forget.

If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above.
