AVOID this TOUR Company

1.00This trip was a mess from start to finish. Showed up 15 minutes late. The tour guide was from Egypt, only a few years in Canada. He knew very little about the areas and missed many of the highlights of Halifax and Peggy's Cove. The van used was old and not suitable for touring. VIATOR NEEDS TO DUMP THIS OPERATOR.

1.00We were promised a nice car with an English speaking person. Not what we got at all! We go a taxi who kicked us out when the other group refused to get in because it wasn’t what was promised.
DO Not Take

1.00According to the information on the website are tour included Narrated Drive to and From Peggy's Cove. Although our driver was nice he did not speak or narrate the drive at all. We were incredibly disappointed because we wanted to learn the history etc. of Peggy's Cove. If we wanted just to drive we would've taken a Uber which would likely have been cheaper. Exceptionally disappointed would never recommend this tour. It is false advertising.
Great tour

4.00Great little tour, initially had difficulty locating the tour operator as there were x2 ships in port and operator did not have a sign with the company logo on. Tour guide Firez was great with a good sense of humour. I think the express tour was just the right amount of time needed to explore this little village.
Guide was a disappointment

2.00Peggy’s Cove is beautiful and a must see in the Halifax area. Unfortunately, the tour we were provided left much to be desired. Our “guide” provided no information or commentary, in fact, he said nothing the entire trip. He drove us to Peggy’s Cove, dropped us off and said he would be back in an hour.
