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.

Reg, our tour guide, was just the best! This was the perfect excursion, not too long and not too short. So informative, but not so much so that you don’t get to explore the sites on your own. We took out almost 9 year old and she had a wonderful time too :) Highly recommend! A definite must do! Thanks again Reg, a true blue-nose specialist lol

Overall a pleasant trip in a minibus. However, the number of persons (maximum 10) is not correct. We were 13 people on the bus. Ultimately, no big deal, but an indication of 10 to 15 people would be fair, as would the stated duration (4.5 hours) - we were back at the cruise terminal after a good 4 hours with a small tour of Halifax at the end. A quarter of an hour more at Peggy Cove would not have been too much, especially as we also had the best weather. The stations Peggy Cove and Titanic Cemetery, as well as the drive through Halifax were enriched by our guide Ron with a lot of interesting information. Therefore, the tour was and is quite recommendable. Picking up at the cruise port also worked out well.

It was a very interesting tour of three sites that were most enjoyable. Our tour guide, Nilah was able to share many facts and points of interest that we would not have known. The pace was ideal and the scenery was memorable. A very worthwhile experience.
