Peggy’s Cove Private Tour (3.5 Hours)
Explore Nova Scotia’s Most Iconic Lighthouse & Coastal Village

Tour Description
Your adventure begins with a scenic drive from Halifax to Peggy’s Cove, a journey of approximately one hour through the beautiful South Shore landscape. Along the way, your local driver-guide will point out notable sights, landmarks, and scenic views, giving you insight into the area’s rich maritime history.

At Peggy’s Cove, you’ll have plenty of free time to explore this picturesque fishing village, home to the world-famous Peggy’s Point Lighthouse—the most photographed lighthouse in all of Nova Scotia.
Perched on massive granite rocks overlooking the crashing Atlantic waves, the lighthouse has stood for over a century and remains a beloved symbol of Nova Scotia.

Take a walk along the rugged coastline, look for tidal pools, or simply relax and enjoy the views. Then, wander down into the village, where you can browse local artisan shops, enjoy a bite to eat, or visit the William deGarthe Art Gallery.

Swissair Flight 111 Memorial
Before returning to Halifax, we’ll make a 20-minute stop at the Swissair Flight 111 Memorial, a peaceful and moving tribute to the 229 lives lost in the 1998 tragedy just offshore from Peggy’s Cove.

After the memorial stop, you’ll enjoy a relaxing ride back to your original pickup point in Halifax or Dartmouth, where your private tour concludes.
