Summary:
Our favorite part of the tour was Peggy’s Cove. It is a charming fishing village with a wonderful historic lighthouse. We also enjoyed the public gardens. The flowers were beautiful even through the pouring rain. The citadel was interesting and our driver timed it so we were there for the firing of the cannon at noon as well as changing of the guard and the playing of the bagpipes. We had a great tour.

Summary:
The best part of our cruise was our amazing tour with Zamir! He is extremely knowledgeable, kind and fun and we felt so safe with him. We learned so many interesting things about Nova Scotia and its history and wonderful people. The 50 minute ride to Peggys cove Zamir shared stories of points of interest all a long the way. He was amazing. He also knows all the great places to take pictures and he took some fun and beautiful pics of us at Peggys Cove. Enroute to the Titanic cemetery he shared a wealth of knowledge and stories of the Titanic that were incredible! As well as our visit to the citadel he explained the important things as well as sharing the little things that were so interesing and fun
We would highly recommend spending the day with him. Thanks Again Zamir!!

Summary:
Zamir was amazing! He was professional, on time, car was very clean and he even had bottled water and rain ponchos for us. The weather was not ideal for our limited time in Halifax, but Zamir had so much information to offer us and was flexible with what we wanted to do that the rain did not damper our tour in the slightest! I would highly recommend booking this tour and I would book with Zamir again if we ever come back to Halifax.
