Overpriced and underdelivered

2.00Driver was very knowledgeable about Halifax and Peggy’s Cove. Experiencing the Titanic cemetery brought the tragedy to life. The downfall was we missed the noon cannons at the citadel. Then the citadel made us turn around. The driver didn’t ask any questions as to why or if we could get in another way. He just said “sorry, the tour ends here.” It was 12:04pm. We lost almost an hour touring the citadel. That was part of the whole reason why I booked this tour and not just Peggy’s Cove. That was a lot of money and we were short changed.

5.00I booked a Halifax tour through Viator for my group of ladies and it was a fantastic experience. The booking process was quick and easy. My questions were also addressed by a live person very quickly! Emily, our guide was a local and very knowledgeable. She really went out of her way to make the whole tour comfortable — picked us up from the ship's exit! She paced the tour well, and shared great local stories. She also recommended great places to eat! My friends and I enjoyed the experience from start to finish ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐⭐"
It was really informative!

1.00What a waste of time and money. Viator contracts many of its tours through third-party operators, and our experience with Sightseeing Tours was very disappointing. First, there were no signs at the cruise terminal to help locate the tour. We had to wander around asking other tour guides where to find them. Eventually, we were told that Sightseeing Tours is not allowed to display signs near the pickup area and instead waits in a parking lot. This should be clearly communicated to customers in advance. The transportation was also disappointing. We were placed in a Ford Expedition, and if you’re a party of three, be prepared to be squeezed into the third-row seat with very limited legroom, airflow, and visibility. The driver mumbled throughout the tour, making it difficult to understand the commentary, and didn’t even seem to know how to operate the rear air conditioning. Viator should be much more transparent during the booking process about the actual transportation provided. Customers deserve to know whether they’ll be traveling in a comfortable tour vehicle or simply being packed into an SUV. As it stands, this felt like a rip-off aimed at tourists.
Very Interesting

2.00We booked this tour through Viator. It said nothing about small groups but when you looked at the providers website it did say small tour groups. After payment late in the day the day before our tour I received a phone call asking to change our time. I said we could not be sure we were on a cruise. I was told I would receive a call back. I called again and was confirmed. When we got off the ship in Halifax I had a message that we could go on a walking tour. When I checked availability it showed three spots available. We were already at our meeting location. There was a pick up for some people and that guide confirmed we were with another guide. Ramen showed up to take others leaving me and my friend with not tour. All the tours were sold out for Peggy’s cove. Ramens booking was incorrect t so was able to take us. I believe this operator cancelled our tour because they did not want to send a car for 2 people. The three open spots would have filled the other vehicle. Only 2 vehicles came to the port and I understand they have 10 vehicles. This was the one tour we really were set on and if not for a booking mistake would have missed out because of this operator. The tour with Ramen was fabulous. He saved the day. I would never trust this operator and will go out of my way not to book them.
Felt scammed

3.00The tour was not informative or fun. They drive you in an SUV to a couple of places. Seems a bit like a scam.
