Just wanted to give a shout out to Meghan who was our last tour guide during our Hop On-Hop Off in Halifax. She was a great guide.

This was a 2 hour or so trip round Halifax in a 'duck' vehicle. It was great fun even though I was crammed at the back with my feel on ropes so it was rather uncomfortable. We went into the water with a huge splash but it was good to see the harbour from in the water and on the land. Saw all the sights in a fun vehicle.

Gray line cancelled the tour without telling us after we checked in the previous day. We were turned away when we arrived to board. They require numbers higher than had booked. More reliable small operators are available and we had a great trip with Anchor. The road trip is interesting and Lunenburg is a great place to visit if the travel company oblige.

I was booked and confirmed for the 6 hour Lunenburg tour on 7/18/2023 at 10:00 am. No tour bus arrived. When I called, there was no return call. Finally someone came on foot and said the tour was cancelled. He substituted a much cheaper, shorter tour. There had been a lady waiting for an 8:30 am tour and a family of four waiting for a 9:00 am tour. No tour buses ever came. Not a reliable company.

Tour scheduled for June 24, 2023. On June 20, Ambassatours sent a reminder. Day Before Ambassatours tourist office still selling trips. On about 3:30 pm the day before, they cancelled. Evidently they only had 5 sign-ups. Interesting because someone I met said she had gone to Peggy's Cove one or two days earlier and the trip went ahead with only her. I suppose it may depend on whichever local operator Ambassatours engaged. But very disappointing because Lunenburg special. Luckily three of us all left in the lurch contacted a taxi to take us to Lunenburg and back, with a side visit to Mahone's Bay. Only a bit more expensive than taking the tour. But very annoyed at Ambassatours for cancelling at last minute.

Guide Russel was excellent, great knowledge and great sense of humour. Very attentive and tailored the tour for participants. He was so personable it made the trip.

We loved the tour guide in his kilt. He was friendly, knowledgeable and entertaining. We enjoyed our Lunenburg walk with him, and enjoyed our free time walking around much of the rest of the area. Lunenburg is beautiful. We thought Mahone Bay was a waste of time. You can't see the "Three Sister Chuches" together really from anywhere; and sorry there's not much else there to warrant that stop. It makes way more sense to do Lunenburg and Peggy's Cove. We were sorry we didn't get to Peggy's Cove on this trip.

Went out around dinner time and the crew told us the boat was very full in the am and everyone was catching fish. we went out with 1 other couple 4 total people on the boat and no fish were caught. Waste of time.

Bob was our driver and he knows Lunenburg so well. The suggestion for lunch he gave us was absolutely delicious!!! He's very personable and knows the whole Nova Scotia area so well. You will be impressed.

Took this tour with the primary purpose to get to Peggy’s Cove, but tour guide Ed filled the drive time of 1 hour each way with lots of information about Nova Scotia, Halifax, and Peggy’s Cove. Sometimes, the jokes were more prevalent than actual information, and I think most people would have enjoyed a break from the constant patter, but overall, it was a very pleasant afternoon, and I learned a lot.

Nova Scotia and Cape Breton are absolutely beautiful but our favorite drive was taking the old highway down from Halifax to Mahone Bay and Lunenburg. We stopped at Peggy’s Cove first and then turned left out of Peggy’s Cove and then turned left onto the old highway. The scenery is stunning so take lots of pictures. Mahone Bay has some great little shops and wonderful old colourful houses. Stop at “Oh My Cod” for lunch. Then on to Lunenburg is the home of the “Bluenose 11” so try to book a ride along ahead of time as it sells out well in advance. There is so much to see and o on the waterfront, great shops and restaurants and just wandering through the colourful streets.

It's a fun way to enjoy seeing the city from the waterfront,, Coventry throughout,, very easy to find, just along from pier 21,,..

The trip was enjoyable. The captain found us several sites to fish. It was a little "choppy" and we moved to a different site with better weather conditions. We didn't catch anything big but my niece and nephew enjoyed themselves.

I took an early afternoon cruise which thankfully wasn't crowded. The tour guide gave an informative history of Halifax Harbour. I generally find short tours like this well worth the cost as you can get a historical overview along with your sightseeing. This was no exception, and recommended.

Very poor impression of the tour. I was very disappointed as we didn't see anything, and also got sea sick because the boat was very shaky. The chances to see any sea animals equal to 0 when you keep on browsing around the coast and never go to the open ocean. Highly not recommended if you hope to see anything other than rocks, waves and seagulls.
