Fabulous. One of best of my life at age 87. Driver a MM and tour guide were wonderful. Driving through the streets of Halifax was an unexpected delight.

The tour itself was wonderful, however, the tour guide was from Saskatchewan and did not relay proper history of Halifax!! Kept referring to boats and ships being "Parked"!!! Referred to himself as Royalty and the Queen. This was not appreciated by many family members on board.

It was a fun experience for us. Quite entertaining when we made a splash into the water. Enjoyed the quick tour on land and appreciated the city view from the water.

Great way to see and learn about the historical sites in the city, and view the harbour front from the water, all within about an hour.

On a warm sunny day, it was a nice tour of the city, both by land and by sea. Logan & Alexandra were great tour guides.
