Storytelling and legends. - Enjoyed the tour. Went with my co-workers for team building & to experience other Indigenous experiences within the Maritimes. The legends and the touch on truth and reconciliation, along with the connection with our guide Dave Smith.

5 stars! Informative, interesting and fun. - Dave is an amazing tour guide-he’s really more like a friend who takes you on a walk while telling stories, sharing knowledge, and also sharing some of his story. I highly recommend everyone to take this in!
