Hi there! Welcome to the exciting city of Halifax, Nova Scotia! My name is Jeff and I thank you for dropping by my guide profile and checking out the tours I have to offer. I would be honored to be your personal tour guide during your visit to Halifax. I'm a life long resident of Nova Scotia and proud to say I was born and raised here. Like you, I am a traveler. There are few things that I enjoy more than visiting new destinations and learning about the history and culture of the area I'm visiting. Trying new foods and beverages is also something I really enjoy. When not involved in travel and touring activities, I enjoy autosports and photography for hobbies. Nova Scotia is an amazing place to visit and is rich in history, culture, and tradition. There's something here for everyone. Whether you are in Halifax for a week or even just a day, I'll do my best to give you an entertaining and educational tour that will leave you with memories that will last a lifetime. Naturally, I hold tours to some of the most popular locations in Nova Scotia such as: Halifax, Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, Annapolis Valley, and the Bay of Fundy areas. Though, I'm more than happy to work with you on customizing your tour to help give you the most amazing experience possible. With so much to see and do, you may even want to consider going on multiple tours to make sure you see as much as you can while you are here. If you have any questions regarding my tours or even general ones regarding your stay in the Halifax area, please feel free to contact me. I'll be pleased to help you out the best I can. Thanks again for dropping by and I look forward to hearing from you! Fully licensed and insured for the commercial use of a motor vehicle in the Province of Nova Scotia. Depending on vehicle availability, I can accommodate up to (14) guests per tour. Please inquire on all of your private group tour needs.

Overview of your Halifax tour

If you're in Nova Scotia for a limited amount of time and you want to visit (2) of its most popular locations on the same day, this is a great option for you. The tour begins as you leave Halifax for the Lunenburg UNESCO World Heritage Site, as you are taken back to an era long ago. See how the traditions and charm of the past have survived to the present day. Lunenburg is truly a unique experience and a place you won't soon forget. In the early afternoon, you leave Lunenburg and travel to Peggy's Cove on Nova Scotia's scenic "Lighthouse Route" in the St. Margaret's Bay. Along the way, you will see countless small fishing villages and the rugged and dangerous rocky coastline that was formed by retreating glaciers at the end of the last "Ice Age". Depending on where you prefer, you have the option of taking the time to have something to eat during the day. The choice is yours. This tour is also customizable to your specific interests. Feel free to contact me with any ideas or requests that you may have.

We (10) experienced a VERY rainy day of touring. Jeff adapted our previously arranged agenda due to the weather conditions. He aranged to pick us back up if we called..which we did. We saw Peggy's Cove, Titanic graves, drove about town to hear about the Halifax Explosion, Halifax Memorial (bells) and the Citadel. He was VERY informativeheld ...a constant conversation about these areas. GREAT JOB by a very pleasant fella.

Jeff was on time, personable and very knowledgeable. He shared many interesting tidbits in our south shore tour. Private group tour was exactly how we envisioned it - flexible and focused on getting the mist from our day to these beautiful sites. Vehicle was very comfortable for 10 of us. Large windows had the feel of a bus without the difficult steps to climb. Great day in NS!!
