小グループツアー-ペギーズコーブ、ルーネンバーグ、アナポリスバレー

Very well organized, Evan was simply awesome and so knowledgeable! Very lovely and enjoyable. The places were beautiful!

A pleasant day trip that we loved. Very informative about a wide variety of topics. We got to see a lot of Nova Scotia, but the long drive was broken up into manageable pieces. We highly recommend it!

Great day out. Despite fog and rain Meg provided an excellent tour and the small group size made it flexible. Nice bit of history and recommendations on how to enjoy our stay. HIGHLY recommend.

We joined the June 1st Small Group Tour to Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg, the Annapolis Valley, and the Bay of Fundy, and all we can say is: WOW! Our guide, Evan, went absolutely above and beyond from start to finish. It was an absolute pleasure spending the day with him. His knowledge is simply incredible — honestly, it felt like there wasn't a single topic he couldn't talk about. History, local culture, nature, photography, food, hidden gems — you name it, Evan knew it. What impressed us most was not just how much he knows, but the passion he brings to every story. He shared so many fascinating local stories and insights that there's simply no way you would ever hear unless you were talking to someone who has dedicated years of his life to learning and sharing them. That passion made all the difference and turned a great tour into an extraordinary experience. The entire day flew by in the blink of an eye! Evan also gave us countless recommendations for places to visit during the rest of our trip, which we greatly appreciated. We visited beautiful places including Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg, the Bay of Fundy, and many other stunning locations. Along the way, we enjoyed some of the best lobster we've ever had in our lives, delicious local ice cream, breathtaking scenery, and unforgettable memories. And then came the biggest surprise! As a special bonus, completely outside of the regular tour itinerary, Evan took us on what felt like a mini photography adventure. We were incredibly lucky to see a real Bald Eagle nest, including the eagle and its babies! It was such a magical moment and something we never expected to experience. Moments like that simply cannot be planned, and Evan made it happen. To top it all off, he gave us a Polaroid photo as a keepsake. Such a unique and thoughtful touch that made the experience even more special. We could keep going, but we don't want to spoil everything. 😊 If you're considering this tour, stop thinking and just book it. Evan made this one of the best travel experiences we've ever had, and we will remember it for years to come. Thank you, Evan, for an amazing day and unforgettable memories! With love and gratitude, Alex & Mary San Francisco Bay Area (SFBA) ❤️📸🦅🌊🦞

We had a wonderful time. Ian was our guide.He had so many stories and facts to share with us about the places we were visiting. The views were really beautiful and the history was captivating.

Fabulous day. Out guide was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed learning about the history of Nova Scotia. Peggys Cove and Lunenburg were my favourite stops but we did enjoy the scenery all along the coast

The area is beautiful and we had an excellent guide that was very informative and very pleasant. Overall a lovely experience.

Alternative Routes was everything I wanted and needed when exploring the East Coast. I was solo travelling, seeking some time in nature - a chance to slow down, take in the scenery and really enjoy the journey. Sam and the team played a huge part in making the trip as memorable as it was. I chose the hop-on, hop-off ticket, which gave me the freedom to explore each stop thoroughly and at my own pace. That flexibility, combined with the team’s knowledge, passion, and genuine love for Nova Scotia, made for a truly incredible expereince that I will never forget! From start to finish, Sam and the team were responsive and reliable which completely took the stress out of travelling. It meant I could relax, enjoy the views and listen to the drivers’ stories as we made our way around the coast. I had Evan and Sam during my visit and their recommendations at every stop were spot on. The route itself was perfect - a beautiful mix of ocean views, small towns, cosy coffee spots, and welcoming communities. Evan even took us to a lovely local farmers market for ice cream along the way! One of the highlights was meeting other passengers. The team create such a warm, wholesome, and joyful atmosphere in the van through their storytelling and hospitality that connecting with other passesngers happens naturally. It felt less like a standard tour and more like sharing the experience with new friends. If you’re thinking about booking a tour with Alternative Routes, you absolutely should. I genuinely can’t imagine a better way to experience these pockets of Nova Scotia than with Sam and her team. Their care, passion, and hospitality shine through in every part of the journey, and I truly cannot recommend them highly enough.
