Great tour if you dont have much time

5.00There was a slight change in pick up venue but still only a short walk from cruise ship. Stuart our tourguide was there a few minutes early. There was only 3 of us which meant plenty of room in the vehicle. First stop was the Citadel. We had 45 minutes here but in reality you need much longer to do the place justice. Lots of information and displays to view and read as well as actually exploring the fort as well. We then had about 10 minutes at the Titanic war graves which was fine. The main stop was Peggy's Cove. It was about a 45min drive out through fantastic and changing scenery. We ended up with about an hour at the Cove which allowed enough time to visit the Lighthouse on the rocks as well as gift shops and walk around the village. It was a beautiful day and views stunning. If you have more time to spare I would advise booking a full day tour to give more time at the Citadel and Peggy's Cove. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and very helpful and pointed out the 'must do's at the stops. Definitely recommend if like me, you only had a short time in port.

3.00Our guide first took us to Peggy’s Cove. It was a little less than an hour to get there and he spoke for a while, but was so difficult to hear for those of us who sat in the second or third row of his van. It would’ve been nice if he had some sort of speaker system and also could provided more information about what we were looking at as we drove along. He was informative at the cemetery and pointed out a couple of things about the Titanic grave sites. When we were dropped off at the Citadel, there was a very long line for tickets. We waited in line for about 15 minutes before being able to enter. I don’t believe this was the drivers fault since tickets could not be pre-purchased but it was inconvenient. It would have been nice for the city tour to have been narrated better with specific details about where we were passing. Our tour guide gave a few details but again, he was very hard to hear.
No show of tour company

1.00The tour guide Siteseeing Tours never showed up. We were told by two security guards that they had been banned from the port for 5 years and that the president of the company was being arrested in the parking lot. We ended up taking a cab and were able to see most of the locations, but with our any narration. On the good side, Vitator refunded the tour the same day. Recommend they check out their tour guides better
Did not happen, Company...

Don’t book with See Sights

1.00I was given 3 different addresses to meet the bus. The bus didn’t arrive. When See Sights were contacted they couldn’t confirm whether their buses would be running today. They said the police had stopped them from operating any tours. I didn’t get any notification from them to say that the bus wasn’t coming and had to keep ringing them. We were only in port for 1 day and all the other tours were booked up so had to get a taxi to where we wanted to go which cost more than twice the amount I had paid to Viator. Shocking service especially knowing that we were cruise customers only here for 1 day. If I could give a minus score I would!!!
