5.00Under the skillfully driving of Captain Curtis we embarked on a fun and informative tour of Halifax. Nelly, a native of Halifax, clearly is proud of her hometown as she should be. She did a great job melding the somewhat tragic history with modern day life in Halifax. It was so interesting to see the city from the water and we managed to do so without getting wet! Highly recommend this tour to give you a good overview of Halifax. It helped us decide what we wanted to explore in more depth. For us, it was the Maritime Museum.
Good trip

3.00Seating should be reserved ahead of time. We were a family of 4 adults and were forced onto a full boat and the only seat available was a bench for 3 at the very front (if we wanted to sit beside each other). I spent $350 or somewhere in that range for a less than mediocre, very uncomfortable experience.
Fun tour

4.00A fun way to see the city and learn a bit of its history. Difficult to understand the guide. He spoke very fast and the sound wasn't very clear
