5.00The Highland Village characters in costume as you moved through time was fantastic. We would highly recommend adding this to your travels. Our driver was great and provided interesting information about Sydney. We liked the Bell Museum. Baddeck had some nice shopping and restaurants. Great tour.

5.00The meet up spot was amongst many people boarding buses. We contacted our guide through viator, who messaged us to use Whatsapp. He persevered messaging us and walked to us for the meet up. He explained a tremendous amount of history to us while walking us around the city. About half way through we asked to stop for a drink, which he promptly found a place we could sit inside, out of the sun and rest a bit. He found us a store and walked us back to the ship area. Great historian. Excellent English. Highly recommend.
