      Beautiful sunset, great live music!
      A wonderful way to see the Halifax Harbour and watch the beautiful sunset! Drinks and snacks are available on board, which was great! The ship has lots of seating to sit and enjoy the views. Live music was also on board which made the experience even more enjoyable! Would highly recommend this activity.

      Interesting perspective for viewing the beautiful harbour!
      Fun evening on the East Coast Lifestyles harbour cruise! This was a great way to see the beautiful harbour and surrounding areas while listening to the onboard entertainment. A perfect night and staff was so friendly!

      Ambassatours will take you to George's Island
      Ambassatours Gray Line will take to you George's Island. It leaves from the Halifax waterfront at Cable Wharf. It is a pleasant mini harbour cruise and Ambassatours sails around the perimeter of the island first so you get a full scope of the fortification. The boat returns often throughout the day so you can stay as long or as little as you want.

      Fun wine tour
      Overall the tour was good. Rick was friendly & knowledgeable. It was a small group, so it was easy to get to know the other people. The driver was a super nice person, but she was extremely nervous about driving in the rain. Her driving was fair at best. She was unsure of herself. Lunch was excellent!

      Excellent tour to Nova Scotia wine country, We had our own personal sommelier- Robin. He was informative, educational, personable and fun! It was a great trip! I learned so much about wine and wine pairings. I highly recommend this tour and make sure you get Robin as your sommelier!!

      The the Harbor Hopper Tour
      My husband and I took the Harbor Hopper Tour. The boat takes you for a 30 minute tour of the city and 30 minutes on the water. Our guide, Chris, was fun, upbeat, and an absolute pleasure. He made the trip exceed our expectations. I would definitely recommend taking the tour in Halifax.

      Halifax by Harbour Hopper.
      We did the Harbour Hopper. Amazing!! Little bumpy but you got to see a lot of Halifax on land and by water. Guides gave great historical information as well. Would highly recommend this adventure to anyone.

      A fair Dinner Cruise
      The boat itself is old and not really nice. The night we went it was quite crowded and hard to move around. The dinner was fairly good but poorly served. For the money, I would eat else where and just go for the harbour cruise.

      Dinner Cruise Review
      Cruise was great and well organized! Food was tasty. Crew was friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend and would do again. The only think I would recommend is that non alcoholic beverages should be included in dinner price. (Pop, juice etc).

      Poor quality food, nice boat ride
      I personally wouldn’t recommend this dinner cruise, save yourself some money and eat at one of the good restaurants downtown along the water and then book this or the tall ship Silva for one of the evening music parties. Although the cruise was nice, the food is sub par and definitely not a buffet. It’s set up like one however the staff plate it and serve it, and there are no seconds. Small portions, and the food looks like something you’d get at a school cafeteria. Drink choices were limited! The interior and exterior of the boat are also very dated with a strong diesel and sewer smell at times. They say they do a historic talk but that was very limited as well and consisted of pointing out a few spots along the way. Staff were okay, some friendlier than others.

      A Beer Drinkers Dream
      We did the 500pm tour while our wives did a bit of shopping. Upon finishing the tour, the biggest dissapointment was the fact that the wives missed a wonderful experience. This tour opens the soul of Nova Scotia with the music, the stories and the outright friendliness. Congratulations the the Alexander Keith's Team for providing such great value with this tour...

      July visit
      Check in was slow. Lugging stuff from car due to lack of parking outside was awful. There were BBQs outside our window just one floor down on the outside and they were cooking and loud till 11 at night. We went to bed at 10 as it had been a long day and we had to get up very early in the morning. Hard to find the hotel when you are not familiar with downtown area

      Great Deal
      My husband and I were visiting Halifax for 3 days and bought the 72 hour bucket list pass, what a deal! We took full advantage of most things the pass offered and ended up doing some things we probably would not have done otherwise etc. The Segway Tour. It was a busy 3 days but we would strongly suggest buying this pass if you want to take in all Halifax has to offer. The hop on hop off bus is included with this pass making it easy to take everything it has to offer in.
