Annapolis valley tour
The tour was great we did go on a very cold day so maybe go to Annapolis valley no later than the first week of October but still very fun with the colours of the changing leaves and halls harbour was cool with the storm like rapids
Operator response
Thanks for the review! October is a beautiful month to explore the Annapolis Valley, especially with the changing fall colours. Just a couple of days earlier, we were enjoying much warmer, almost summer-like weather! The unusually strong winds during your tour were certainly out of the ordinary and made it feel much colder that day despite the sunshine. We’re glad you still enjoyed your day with us! 😊

Fabulous Day Tour of Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia
This day tour of the Annapolis Valley was my second with SuperNova Tours while staying in Halifax. Tour guide Liam was excellent, knew the history of the area having grown up there. Liam also accommodated the UK couple in our small group wanting to see lots of the colourful fall foliage, which I also enjoyed as a repeat visitor to Nova Scotia. Liam is a very good careful driver. We stopped at Halls Harbour with plenty of time for lunch and walking along the boardwalk. For me, the UNESCO World Heritage Grand-Pre National Historic Museum was the most interesting - learning about the history of the Acadians. We did a brief stop at Evangeline Beach to watch the tide go out at the Bay of Fundy, and stopped at a couple of local farmers' markets to see local produce (apples!) and gifts/souvenirs. A day tour well worth taking.
Operator response
Thanks for coming back, Lesley! We’re glad you enjoyed exploring more of Nova Scotia with Liam and that his local knowledge added to the experience. The Annapolis Valley has such a wonderful mix of history and scenery, especially with the beautiful fall colours this time of year! 😊

Supernova - Super Tours!
I did both tours offered by Supernova during my stay in Halifax and both were fantastic! From beginning to end, the communication with the company was top notch - all of my questions pre-booking were answered and the pre-tour emails confirming pick up time and location were super helpful. Kayla, my guide for the Annapolis Valley tour was wonderful - super nice and very knowledgeable about the area. It was so nice to be with such a small group and not on a gigantic tour bus. The van used for the tour was super comfortable. The Annapolis Valley is gorgeous - this is definitely the more "chill" tour of the two offered by Supernova. The stops at Luckett's Vineyard and Hall's Harbor were lovely - the food at the Lobster Pound was great! The Grand Pre site was definitely the highlight for me - if you are interested in history, I highly recommend paying the extra fee to go into the museum and the church on the site. If you have time, I highly recommend booking both tours offered by Supernova!
Operator response
Thank you again, Martha! We’re glad you had such a great day exploring the Annapolis Valley with Kayla. There really is a peacefulness to the Valley, and we’re happy you enjoyed the relaxed pace and beautiful stops along the way. It’s great to hear Grand-Pré was a highlight as well. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and recommend both of our tours!

My experience surpassed my expectations!
The Annapolis Valley is so beautiful, it was my first time there. Our tour guide Kayla was kind, courteous and extremely knowledgeable on the history of the area.
As passengers we had access to our own climate controls and this made the ride even more comfortable.
I can’t wait to experience the South Shore Tour!!

A Beautiful Taste of the Annapolis Valley
The Annapolis Valley tour was a wonderful way to experience a different side of Nova Scotia. Highlights included the spectacular views at Hall's Harbour, a visit to the beautiful Luckett Vineyards, exploring the historic Grand-Pré and a scenic drive through the charming town of Wolfville. The day was well paced, with plenty of time to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area.

A beautiful day in Annapolis!
We enjoyed a great tour of Annapolis Valley with Kayla of Supernova Tours. She shared so many interesting facts during our tour. We visited Luckett Vineyards and sampled some wine. A brief stop at Blomidon Look-off for great pictures. Lunch was awesome at Hall’s Harbour Lobster Pound Restaurant in the Bay of Fundy—super fresh local lobster and stunning views. Last stop was a visit to Grand Pré historical Acadian site. As we expected, Nova Scotia continues to impress us and Supernova Tours remains our first choice for an easygoing, comfortable day of sightseeing and tours with awesome guides. Make sure you keep them in mind if you are going to visit Nova Scotia!

An Unforgettable Annapolis Valley Experience with Chuck
Our Annapolis Valley tour was such a beautiful and memorable experience, and Chuck was a huge reason why the day felt so special. The scenery was stunning, of course, but what really made the tour stand out was the way Chuck brought everything to life with his stories, conversations, and genuine warmth.
From the very beginning, Chuck made the atmosphere feel comfortable and easygoing. It did not feel like a scripted tour where someone was just driving us from one stop to another. It felt much more personal than that. He was so engaging throughout the day and made sure the drive itself was just as enjoyable as the destinations. We discussed so many different things along the way, and he had a great way of keeping the conversation flowing naturally without ever making it feel forced. There was never a moment where we felt bored or disconnected from the experience.
His stories were one of the best parts of the tour. They were interesting, thoughtful, and full of personality, and you could tell he really cared about sharing Nova Scotia in a meaningful way. Whether we were learning about the Annapolis Valley, the Bay of Fundy tides, local communities, or just chatting about life and travel in general, Chuck made everything feel engaging and memorable.
Luckett Vineyards was beautiful, the Blomidon Look-Off was breathtaking, and Hall’s Harbour had such a peaceful charm, but Chuck added something extra to every stop. He gave us time to explore, take photos, enjoy the views, and really soak in the atmosphere without feeling rushed. The whole day felt relaxed, wholesome, and thoughtfully paced.
A great guide can completely change the experience of a tour, and Chuck absolutely did that. He made us feel welcomed, entertained, and genuinely cared for throughout the day. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Nova Scotia, and we are so grateful to Chuck for making it such an enjoyable and unforgettable experience. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you are lucky enough to have Chuck as your guide!
Operator response
Thank you, Arjun! Creating memorable experiences that stay with our guests long after their trip is exactly what we strive for, so it means a great deal to hear your Annapolis Valley tour was one of the highlights of your visit. We'll be sure to share your thoughtful comments with Chuck—thank you for taking the time to share your experience!
