5.00Wow, what an incredible evening! The Peggy's Cove Sunset Tour from Halifax was truly a night to remember. The sunset was absolutely stunning and something I'll never forget the views were even more picturesque in person. A huge thank you to our driver and guide, Arjun. He was amazing! Not only was he professional, punctual, and incredibly knowledgeable, but he also made the entire experience so enjoyable. He answered every single one of my questions with so much patience and insight, and it was clear he genuinely cared about everyone having a great time. His calm and friendly personality really made the tour even better. I highly recommend this tour and Arjun to anyone

3.00Pickup for the tour was by Pier 22 in Halifax and at that time of the evening, the parking was free. We loaded in a comfy van, left on time and the weather was beautiful. Half way down the windy road on the way there, the weather started to turn very dreary. By the time we arrived in Peggy's Cove, it was nothing but mist and fog everywhere. The driver was friendly and told us that we had 1.5 hours to walk around. At first you could see the lighthouse, but it was obvious that no sunset was ever going to happen which was truly unfortunate. There is a restaurant and a gift shop there and you can walk around the village. But, it was so ugly that night it wasn't even enjoyable. We waited for two passengers that stayed until the last minute and by that time the lighthouse was completely shrouded in fog. I took this tour because I had been driving so much on my road-trip that I wanted a break. It's not the tour company's fault - I know you can't control the weather. But in retrospect, I wish I had just decided to drive down myself during the day (when I can check the forecast) and forgo trying to catch a sunset. Would've saved me some money.
A scenic tour!

5.00For me, it was a pacifying evening with the friendly knowledgeable guide, Arjun. Got to see the village scenery of Halifax and the beauty of iconic Peggy's Cove in St. Margarets Bay.
Memorable day.

The crew was incredibly welcoming, professional, and knowledgeable, adding insightful commentary along the way without ever being intrusive. The vehicle is very clean and well sanitized. I highly recommend this sunset tour. It’s the kind of experience that stays with you long after the sun has set.
