Overview

This small-group day trip begins with a drive from downtown Halifax to Lunenburg, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the best-preserved British Colonial Era settlements in North America. Founded in 1753, Lunenburg features buildings dating back to the 1700s and 1800s and is home to the tall ship Bluenose II. Visitors have about two and a half hours to walk the town's streets, learn about its maritime heritage, and enjoy lunch at a local seafood restaurant (not included). After Lunenburg, the tour continues with a scenic one-and-a-half-hour drive to Peggy's Cove. This fishing village in the St. Margaret's Bay Region is known for its lighthouse, one of the most photographed in Canada. Guests have approximately one hour to explore the village, visit its shops, and photograph the rocky coastline where waves meet the shore. The tour ends with a one-hour return trip to Halifax. The vehicle is air-conditioned, and the guide provides commentary throughout the journey. Lunch, alcoholic drinks, and gratuities are not included.
