*This tour leaves from Baddeck, NS and does not pick up at the cruise terminal in Sydney.

The Cabot Trail Discovery Tour explores Nova Scotia’s most iconic road trip. From the rugged coastlines and majestic mountains to the charming small fishing villages, this tour provides breathtaking viewpoints, endless photo opportunities, and local culinary experiences.

We follow the coastline as we climb and descend mountains and traverse the Cape Breton Highlands National Park. Picturesque examples of typical Nova Scotian fishing villages dot the Cabot Trail’s winding roads. Hear the crash of the ocean against the craggy stone shorelines, feel the sand between your toes, and smell the salt air at the many coastal stops along the 300-kilometre journey.

It makes more sense to do the Cabot Trail by bus as you can see much more and hear about the history of the place and have some interesting humorous stories told to you during this experience. I would have missed some of the hidden gem spots to stop for the best views and photo ops.
Beautiful day
