The rocks at Peggy's cove were stunning. They spoke to the Geologist in me. (Amateur, you understand) the tour guide was both super knowledgeable and personable.

I wanted to enjoy this tour, and our guide truly did his best to make it worthwhile, but two main issues held me back from giving a glowing review.
First, our guide was delayed due to traffic, which unfortunately impacted the timing of our entire itinerary. By the time we reached Peggy's Cove, we encountered large crowds from two other bus groups. I had to wait in a long line for the restroom, and there was no time to grab a bite to eat. Later, we arrived at the Titanic gravesite just before sunset, which felt rushed.
Additionally, an older woman sitting next to the guide turned the experience into her own personal tour. She continuously asked questions, leaving little opportunity for the rest of us to engage with the guide.
The tour’s itinerary itself was excellent, and we managed to see everything we had hoped to. However, I feel like we missed out on a fuller experience due to these setbacks.
