Peggy's Cove
The tour starts in downtown Halifax with a 45mins (approximate) drive to peggys cove. Home to one of the most famous light houses in the world and Nova Scotia's most iconic landmarks. On our Peggy’s Cove experience, travelers will embark on a scenic coastal drive, taking in stunning ocean views and picturesque villages. Upon arrival, you’ll explore the iconic Peggy’s Cove Lighthouse, perched on dramatic granite rocks with waves crashing below. Visitors can walk the rugged shoreline, visit local shops and galleries, and immerse themselves in the area’s rich fishing culture.
Swissair Flight 111 Memorial
Whalesback Memorial located approximately 1 km north of Peggy’s Cove, the Whalesback Memorial features two granite stones. One stone bears three carved notches representing the flight number "111," and its orientation points toward the crash site. The second stone aligns with the Bayswater Memorial across the bay. A short walking trail (160 meters) leads visitors to this solemn site, providing a space for reflection amidst the natural coastal landscape

Long drive to destinations. Nothing you can do to change that, just be aware. Nov 1, cold & windy after Melisa, but got to see amazing waves with no crowds.

Really great tour! The group had enough time to explore each site. Our guide was very informative and timely. Bring layers as Peggy’s Cove can get windy.

I had a wonderful experience on this guided tour! I really appreciated that the guide came to pick me up directly at my hotel, and a bottle of water was provided, which was a nice touch. The guide shared plenty of interesting information about the three sites we visited and gave great recommendations for places to see and eat around Halifax. He was attentive to our requests and made the whole experience very enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour, especially for solo travelers or anyone without a car. It’s a perfect way to discover these hidden gems!

The driver was late to pick me up but other than that, i still recommend the tour! He was a lovely guy and the ladies from the cruise were also lovely too. We drove around in a car so that was nice from a typical charter bus, and the service was very professional.
