Maaz was awesome! He was so kind to tailor the experience a bit for us as we wanted a little extra time at the citadel instead of the cemetery for my son. He was able to provide information around Peggy's Cove as well as Halifax and had a car seat ready to go for my 3 year old as requested. He was attentive and just fantastic!
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re thrilled to hear you had a great experience with Maaz. He’ll be delighted to know his flexibility, knowledge, and attention to detail made your tour so enjoyable. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Nova Scotia soon!
I have taken many Viator tours. Most in a big group with a guide. We have a group of 28 people. Instead of 2 bus, they gave us 5 vans. I feel like this is more like a taxi with the driver giving some commentary of the area. The communication with owner of this tour was excellent and he was easy to work with. I’m sure the quality of the tour varies in each car. My driver was very brief in his commentaries. Our time at Peggy’s Cove was rushed (50 minutes). I recommend taking a bigger group tour rather than small van from Viator..
Dear Judy, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We truly appreciate your kind words regarding our communication and coordination — it means a lot to us. We would like to respectfully clarify one important point for future readers: We do not operate large coaches or buses, and this was clearly communicated prior to the booking. Based on your group size of 28 guests, the arrangement of multiple comfortable passenger vans was discussed and confirmed in advance, as this is the standard and safest way we accommodate larger private groups. Our tours are intentionally designed as small-group, personalized experiences, rather than mass-market coach tours. This allows for flexibility, easier access to sites like Peggy’s Cove (where large buses often face parking and movement restrictions), and more individual attention from our local driver-guides. Regarding the time at Peggy’s Cove, the scheduled stop of approximately 50 minutes follows local traffic regulations, safety considerations, and the overall tour timeline agreed upon with the group leader. That said, we sincerely regret that you felt rushed and we take this feedback seriously as we continuously refine our tour pacing. As for the commentary, we work with several professional driver-guides, and while all are knowledgeable locals, presentation styles naturally vary. We will be sharing your feedback with our team to ensure more consistent engagement across all vehicles. We genuinely appreciate your honest review and are grateful you chose to explore Nova Scotia with us. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future.
Viator should not put 4 people in a sedan coupe. Three in the back seat was extremely uncomfortable, even more so with the fast driving habit of our tour guide. It was a pretty drive to the Lighthouse, but didn't enjoy it because of being uncomfortable. Visiting the cemetery where the Holocaust deceased are buried was the most interesting part of the tour. I will give our guide credit for his knowledge on the subject. But he was late, arrived 10 minutes after the tour was to begin and we were advised to be there 10 minutes early and we were. In addition, he did not walk up to the terminal like other tour guides did. We had to walk out to parking lot to locate him. After we did, he did not introduce himself. I introduced myself and my 3 traveling partners. In the car he mainly conversed to our male passenger in the front seat. Us 3 women in the back seat was just along for the ride!
Dear Sharon, Thank you for sharing your feedback. Your tour was conducted by Claudio, one of our most experienced and friendly driver-guides, who usually receives excellent reviews for his knowledge and professionalism. We’re truly shocked and sorry to learn that you were disappointed with the experience. The vehicle used was a Lexus sedan, comfortable for up to 4 passengers, but we understand that seating can feel a bit tight when three adults are seated in the back. We sincerely apologize if this affected your comfort during the drive to Peggy’s Cove. We also regret the delay at the pickup point and any lack of introduction or communication that fell short of our standards. We appreciate your acknowledgment of Claudio’s historical insights, and we’ll ensure your comments are shared with him to improve the guest experience further. Your feedback is very valuable to us, and we truly hope you will consider touring with us again so we can provide you with the level of service we’re known for.
Our tour itinerary was great however our guide Adnan did not give us any information on our tour. He did not tell us anything and when asking questions we got a simple yes or no answer. We did not learn anything and were just dropped at each location and told to walk around without any explanation. Our guide was simply a driver and not a certified tour guide as described when we booked. It was very disappointing.
Dear Guest, I’m truly sorry to read about your experience and understand how disappointing that must have felt — especially when you were expecting a guided, informative tour. This is not the kind of experience we want any of our guests to have. That particular day, we were fully booked beyond capacity, and in trying to accommodate everyone, we made the mistake of outsourcing one tour to an external driver. Unfortunately, the guide assigned did not meet our standards of professionalism or storytelling that our guests normally enjoy and appreciate. That’s completely on us, and we take full responsibility. We’ve already taken steps to ensure this doesn’t happen again — from now on, all our tours are handled only by our certified in-house guides who love sharing Halifax’s stories and history with warmth and enthusiasm. Our sincere apologies again, and I truly hope you’ll consider giving us another chance to show you what is really about — authentic, engaging, and memorable experiences.
