Very informative - The guide bob was great. We bought his book Atlantic last stop and he was very good at telling stories about Halifax. He narrated the trip going out to Peggy’s cove and then back. I would highly recommend this excursion. The trip was right on time and we made it back to our ship with plenty on time to spare!

The view! - Great experience! Will be back. Car is definitely needed to explore more of Halifax. Waterfront, food, and the city is rich with history.

Tour too short. - Tour was too short. Tour guide commentary was dull, and did not appreciate how often she told people to stop talking while she was talking.

Scenic spot, but … - Scenic spot but was not worth a half-day trip. A knowledgeable but highly talkative guide—info overload.

Peggy’s Cove is beautiful, but driver was not safe - Trip was beautiful to Peggy’s Cove and bus was on time. Worth the trip, and tour guide was good. The driver, however, was going too fast for the tight winding roads, and at one point hit the ditch. Was also driving well above the speed limit and flow of traffic on the highway section.

Bus to SUV to Mini Van???? - Our experience was not a positive one. When we arrived to board out "bus" transportation, we were told by Johnathan we would have to pack 6 of us into an SUV because there wasn't enough of us to use a small tour bus. Not happening. Then we were put into a mini van and transported to Peggy's Cove. Very uncomfortable and could not see out very good. Not what we paid for. The only thing that made it memorable was our driver went above and beyond to make up for such a rocky start with the transportation. I give him 5 stars out of 5.
