Took this excursion from cruise ship. Not really my favorite time. I was underwhelmed. Our guide seemed pre-occupied with other things and struggled to keep the group engaged in learning.
Informative and fun! We learned about the history of the island and its treasures. Thanks to our good guide, Dave.

I loved the Anne of Green Gables experience. My guide, Heather was fun, quirky, and delightfully irreverent. I love Canadian humor! She was so knowledgeable and unpretentious. Life is too short to experience boring people! I highly recommend this experience!
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We’re delighted you enjoyed your Anne of Green Gables experience with Heather. Her knowledge, humour and wonderful personality certainly make for a memorable Island tour. We truly appreciate your recommendation!
It was an opportunity to explore away from the cruise port. We got to see beaches, the red cliffs, The Green Gables, hear about the city, and hear Canadian music.
Thank you so much for the lovely review. I’m really glad you enjoyed getting out beyond the cruise port and seeing more of the real Island. PEI is so much more than one stop, and I’m happy you were able to experience the beaches, red cliffs, Green Gables, local history, and a little Canadian music along the way. It was a pleasure having you tour with us, and I hope you made some wonderful memories here on Prince Edward Island. Thanks again, Sonya
Tour guide was great, very knowledgeable. Stops at each place was a little short. Local music on bus was good
Thank you so much for joining our tour and for taking the time to leave a review. I’m really glad you enjoyed the local music and found the tour informative. We do try to fit a lot into the time we have, especially with cruise schedules, but I appreciate the feedback on the stop lengths as well , we will try and tighten the route so we can get as much time as possible at all sights. Hope you enjoyed the rest of your visit to PEI! Thanks again, Sonya
