About this activity

Most Halifax tours show you a lighthouse. This private small-group experience goes deeper in just 3-4 hours.

Enjoy a scenic drive along Highway 333 on Nova Scotia’s rugged South Shore as your guide shares stories of fishing heritage, dramatic coastal landscapes, and local history.

First stop is Peggy’s Cove, where you can explore the iconic lighthouse, granite shoreline, and fishing village at your own pace, with time for photos and ocean views.

Continue to the Swissair Flight 111 Memorial, a quiet and powerful place of reflection on the Atlantic coast, where 229 lives were lost in 1998. Hear the full story, including the community response and recovery efforts.

End at Fairview Lawn Cemetery (Titanic Cemetery), the resting place of Titanic victims and one of the most significant maritime heritage sites in Halifax.

No crowds, no buses, no rushing—just an intimate, meaningful coastal experience with guaranteed on-time return to Halifax Harbour.
