- We had a fantastic day touring Halifax with Stewart from BLT Limousine! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the city’s history come alive. The tour was well-paced, comfortable, and tailored to our interests. Stewart’s passion for Halifax truly made the experience unforgettable. Highly recommend!

Private Tour of Halifax - We had a wonderful day with Stewart - Halifax was the first port on our cruise. Stewart took us to all the landmarks and sights around Halifax. He is very personable and knowledgeable. My son and I would highly recommend spending your time in Halifax with Stewart. We enjoyed lunch at Peggy's Cove at a restaurant that he recommended.

Private Tour - such a wonderful time with excellent driver. Drove us through beautiful neighborhoods, colleges, downtown. Took us to Peggys Cove which we enjoyed the views. A very very relaxing tour without the need of a large cruise group which tends to rush you through. He even bought me mocha coffee. I strongly recommended him . Thank you so much for being so patient with us.

Halifax with History - There is so much history to learn about Halifax. Our guide Stuart was so knowledgeable that I felt that we really learned a great deal about not only Halifax but the surrounding areas.

Great tour of Halifax! - Stewart was prompt and knowledgeable. He picked us up at the cruise port and provided us with facts and history about Halifax throughout our drive. He was also able to customize the day based off our requests. He strategically managed to get us to Peggy’s Cove in between tour busses which made for a very enjoyable time there including an almost empty restaurant! Thank you Stewart!

What a great day! - Stewart contacted me a few days before the tour. He had done his homework by finding out the exact pier we’d be disembarking from and told me specifically where he’d meet us. We have no doubt we saw more, and were more comfortable than if we had taken a bus tour. Stewart took us through interesting neighborhoods, let us walk through a beautiful public garden, a memorial to the Titanic, and to Peggy’s Cove, where we had lunch. He also knew all the bathroom stops. I really appreciate that he was willing to stop at a pharmacy for me! I never could have done that with a busked of people! Stewart also told us stories about Halifax and Peggy’s Cove and played local music to our enjoyment.

Sightseeing Journey - We had a wonderful day! Stewart was waiting for us just steps from the ship and we began our 6 hour sightseeing journey filled with information and beautiful picture moments. This was so much better than doing a group tour!
