• Peggy’s Cove - Begin your 4-hour private tour right from the Halifax Cruise Terminal or your city hotel. Enjoy a picturesque 50-minute drive to Peggy’s Cove, passing serene fishing villages, tranquil lakes, and breathtaking coastal views. It’s a journey where you can simply relax and soak in the scenery.

The highlight of the tour is Peggy’s Cove. Spend about an hour in this charming, postcard-like village. It feels timeless, with vibrant homes on rocky outcrops, fishing boats in the harbor, and the fresh Atlantic breeze. Visit the famous lighthouse, one of Canada’s most photographed landmarks, standing on massive granite rocks with waves crashing below. You’ll have time to explore the rocks, capture memorable photos, browse local gift shops, and enjoy the serene atmosphere.

• Fairview Lawn Cemetery - After Peggy’s Cove, return to Halifax with a 45-minute drive, stopping at the Titanic Victims Cemetery, known as Fairview Lawn Cemetery. Halifax was pivotal in the Titanic disaster’s aftermath, being the nearest major port. Spend about 15 minutes among the graves of over 120 victims, including crew, passengers from all classes, and “The Unknown Child.” Your guide will share poignant stories and historical insights, making this visit respectful and unforgettable.

• Halifax Citadel National Historic Site - Next, visit Citadel Hill, or Fort George, a historic star-shaped fortress guarding Halifax since 1749. Built by the British to protect the harbor, it was never attacked but symbolizes Halifax’s strategic significance.

Explore the fortress and feel transported back in time. Walk along the stone walls and grassy ramparts, see old cannons, and hear the noon-time gun fired by a costumed re-enactor. Inside the barracks and tunnels, learn about soldiers’ daily lives, view historical exhibits, and understand Halifax’s defense during peace and war. The elevated site offers stunning 360-degree views over downtown Halifax, the harbor, and beyond — perfect for photos.

• Halifax Waterfront Boardwalk - After 30 minutes at the Citadel, your final stop is the Halifax Waterfront Boardwalk, one of the world’s longest urban boardwalks and a favorite for visitors and locals. Stretching nearly 4 kilometers along the harbor, it features charming shops, cafes, local artisans, museums, and food stalls. See historic ships, watch sailboats, and maybe spot a seal.

The boardwalk is an ideal tour finale — vibrant, scenic, and energetic. You can be dropped off here to explore further or return to your original pickup point, whether the cruise terminal or your hotel.

This last part of the tour offers a glimpse of Halifax’s modern allure, perfectly complementing the history explored earlier.
