The scenery was beautiful, would definitely recommend the trail. BUT there were 6 passengers in the car so my husband did not have a window view of the scenery and our driver drove very fast ( made it a bit uncomfortable at times in the back). As we left the port an enforcement officer stopped the car and revealed that the driver was not licensed for the Cabot trail. This did not stop us going though. Also the car was showing several warning lights which made us a little uncomfortable. Seemed overall a bit disorganised and unprofessional, vehicle not big enough for the number of people and the length of time. That being said the fall colours and view points / photo stops were great - we are glad we got to see everything.
