We head along the beautiful coastal road to Peggy's Cove. As soon as you arrive you will be enchanted by the lighthouse located on the edge of the ocean and the quaint fishing village, Peggy's Cove attracts thousands of visitors each year. Nestled on the rocky shoreline of St. Margaret's Bay, the area offers stunning, world-renowned scenery.
During your tour here we get to view the Devonian Granite Rock Formations , these influenced they way the landscape around Peggy's Cove was created. Boulders that seem to grow out of the fields of moss and shrubs are a gigantic 350- to 415-million-year-old. They were scattered by retreating glaciers about 10,000 years ago at the end of the last ice age.
Whilst we head back to Halifax, we enjoy a photo stop at the Halifax Citadel. This hilltop area allows guests a stunning panoramic view of the city and harbour, creating a great finish to your half day shore excursion.

Driver was nice and bus was comfortable, but the “city tour” involved a quick bus ride through and we were just dropped off to run around the lighthouse for a bit. Lighthouse and area are beautiful, I was just expecting more of an actual tour than a bus ride to the attraction.

Our bus tour driver was amazing at telling us history and telling us stories about the area. Also, Peggy's cove itself is incredible. We had lots of time to explore ourselves and see the area.

We lost a half day of vacation waiting for guide who later told us that they do not have a vehicle to transport 8 individuals (tho they accepted booking). Guide said that Viator cancelled our booking and Viator said Tour Company cancelled booking. We did finally get to Peggy's Cove for a short visit but nothing for Best of Halifax. I dont know if it was Viator or the Tour Company's fault but this excursion was a disaster from the start.
