What To Expect
Peggy's Cove Lighthouse
As you leave Halifax, you'll enjoy a scenic 1:30-hour drive along the beautiful coastline of St. Margaret's Bay, from the village of Hubbards to the iconic Peggy's Cove. After arriving in Peggy's Cove, you'll have an hour to visit the world's most popular lighthouse, explore the local fishing village, and even sample some local seafood if you like! Witness the power of the ocean as waves crash against the rugged and rocky coastline. Peggy's Cove will treat you to incredibly beautiful landscapes and leave you with memories that will last a lifetime.
Fairview Lawn Cemetery
As you leave Peggy's Cove and head back to Halifax (1:00 hr. approximate time), your next stop will be the Fairview Lawn Cemetery, where the remains of 121 Titanic victims are interred. The tragic loss of the RMS Titanic on April 15, 1912, was felt all over the world, including in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Due to Nova Scotia's close proximity to the Titanic's last known position, recovery ships from Halifax were dispatched to conduct the grizzly task of recovering those who perished. Halifax is home to the largest concentration of Titanic graves in the world. As you walk through the cemetery, you'll learn about the lives of those who were lost, the details surrounding the memorial, and the heartbreaking story of the unknown child of the Titanic.

5.00Great communication and info on this excursion. I felt that the four hours allocated were perfect. I loved that the tour operator picked us up right from the port. The tour guide had perfect cadence to his shpill and spoke very clearly. The mic in the van helped a lot. He explained the sites we visited wonderfully. He made the Titanic Cemetery visit very interesting. Highly recommend this excursion.

Amazing Tour and Outstanding Guide

5.00We enjoyed the most incredible half-day excursion with Jeff, the most informed tour guide I ever met! He took us to Peggy’s Cove and shared his knowledge about the area along the way. Then into “The Titantic” Cemetery where he regaled us with so many stories about the victims and their circumstances. He picked us up in a lovely 8-passenger van. We were very comfortable. When we returned to the cruise ship we were the envy of our new friends who asked us how we arranged a private tour while they had to make due with the exact same tour (we saw them in Peggy’s Cove and the cemetery) on a very large motor coach for nearly twice the price! We told them to write down the name “Viator” and book them next time.
Great Tour!

5.00Ron was a very good guide and a wealth of information of the area Weather didn't cooperate with a lot of fog and cold , he add to the tour by taking the longer way back and showing some extra sights. He used a headset so was easy to hear.
Solo Traveller who had an awesome time

5.00Ron our tour guide was super knowledgeable and just a very nice person. The tour was great and gave us a good amount of time around Peggy's cove and you could tell he knows so much about the Titanic stories. Highly recommend those who are solo travelling.

5.00I’ve been to Halifax before into the Titanic graveyard. It was OK back then but this time this tour guide did an excellent job and told me facts about Titanic that I didn’t even know and I am an advert Titanic person and he was great and took time to explain every bit of the tour in detail and he was a great sport.
Beautiful drive to...

4.00Beautiful drive to Peggy’s Cove (from what we could see in the fog and rain). Ron had a lot of great stories and kept things lively and fun. Too bad the weather didn’t cooperate but that’s out of our control. The lobster roll was delicious!! The Titanic cemetery was sad but worth seeing.
Highly recommended!
