Fun Halifax tour, especially for families
We had a great time on the Halifax Hopper with Hopperator Dave and Tour Guide Katie. Katie kept the tour fun, lively, and easy to follow, and Dave handled the ride smoothly from the streets into the water. It was a great mix of sightseeing, history, and humor without feeling too heavy. This would be especially good for families because it keeps everyone entertained while still showing off a lot of Halifax in a short time. Highly recommend for a fun, easy way to see the city.

Half-Day Small-Group Tour of Nova Scotia’s South Shore
MissCarla, Sep 2026
Wonderful Day Spent Exploring the South Shore
Paul was an excellent tour guide. Very knowledgeable about the history of the area. He picked us up at our hotel right on time and was open and friendly. He pointed out various sites and gave a little history lesson about each. At each stop we had plenty of time to explore and do our own thing. He also recommended some restaurants while we were in Lunenberg, which we took and were not disappointed. My husband discovered after we were dropped back at our hotel that he may have lost something important in the van, and when I texted Paul, he pulled over, found the item and promptly delivered it to us at our hotel. Top notch service and would highly recommend.

Paul is very knowledgeable. He has been doing tours for over 15 years. His vehicle is very comfortable. The tour we picked was long but he had interesting things to show us on his tablet to make the drive more interesting. Would use him again.

Lunenburg, The Ovens and Mahone Bay Private Tour (HFX Limo and Tours)
We had an excellent 6 hour private tour with Nav. As a guide, he shared information well about the areas we travelled to. He was very personable, and polite and looked after us well for the whole tour. Highlights included the town of Lunenburg, The Ovens walk past amazing seacliffs and water caves, and the many photo opportunities including architecture, and Mahone Bay. We also did a short stop at Titanic Cemetery on the way home. We enjoyed our time with Nav as he shared his life experiences with us and asked us about Australia. A Highly recommended tour and excellent guide.

Great tour and awesome guide. Anant was very knowledgeable and and took great care of us, assisting us in and out of the van, holding umbrellas, taking photos, and more. We learned so much and saw some amazing sights. He knew the perfect places to stop for a closer look and timed them perfectly, given the off and on rainy weather. We would 100% recommend this tour.

Outstanding tour!!
This was a wonderful tour, living up to every expectation! We loved our driver, Amir, was so mindful of our group’s mobility issues and planned accordingly. He was great at giving historical facts and answering questions. He had some audio recordings he played that enlarged his explanations of each site. He took us to a great overlook across the bay from Lunenburg which buses would not have been able to access. He got us to Peggy’s Cove and the lighthouse before the buses started arriving. Yay Amir!! You will enjoy this private tour immensely!!
