Jay was very informative, an excellent Driver for such a long trip, and a delight to have as a tour guide. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to take a trip to Peggy’s Cove and I especially love the sunset pictures that he arranged.
What a beautiful way to see Peggy's Cove at sunset. So glad I booked this tour and my driver Iqbal was absolutely fantastic. He was so knowledgeable about the area and greatvto talk too. This is a must !!!
Amazing experience. Peggy's Cove is stunning at sunset! My guide Iqbal was absolutely fantastic. He was so knowledgeable about so many things. He was a great conversationalist and funny!! He made the whole experience better!!! Would book with them again. 10/10 !!!
This was call a sunset excursion however not only was it a cloudy day but it was past sunset by the time we arrived since the tour didn’t leave until 6:30. We asked for an earlier departure so we could see Peggy’s cove in the day light before sunset at the lighthouse. The tour guide/driver tried very hard to accommodate but he said that the company he was employed by wouldn’t allow it. The tour guide was very nice and knowledgeable. He was punctual and a safe driver.
A great way to spend a few hours. Nav was knowledgeable, and provided lots of background about Halifax prior to reaching Peggy’s Cove. Then, it was an hour of amazing sunset photos and light hiking. Definitely recommend, especially when skies are clear.
Great tour with JAY absolutely competent, punctual and therefore very good
Our initial trip was unexpectedly canceled and Jay stepped in to save the day! Soon after we booked, Jay reached out to check in and even called later closer to meet up time. This really put our mind at ease given the debacle we experienced in the morning. Jay was charming, funny and very knowledgeable and kept us entertained the entire ride out. Timing was perfect as we arrived to PC about 20 minutes before sunset and there are no words for how amazing the sights were. My mom and I can’t speak more highly of Jay or the entire experience. Thank you, Jay!
Jay is a wonderful tour guide. Friendly and knowledgeable about Nova Scotia and Peggy’s cove. The weather was perfect! Peggy’s cove is beautiful
Iqbal showed up early to pick us up. He had great insights on Halifax and Peggy's cove which we appreciated hearing on the way to the lighthouse. The weather was extremely foggy so it was difficult to see the lighthouse, but we still loved the trip and snuck in some good pictures. Iqbal really made the experience very positive!!
Jay was friendly, informative and went the extra mile to drive past a couple of points of interest we asked about. We would highly recommend this guide and tour. Peggy's Cove at sunset is gorgeous, plus the crowds have thinned significantly from mid-day normal.
