We had a great time! The tour was very informative, with great sights and a fun vibe. The driver and guide were friendly and greatly contributed to all the above.

Great introduction to Halifax! Abby was a fabulous guide, and Geff did a great job navigating some narrow streets. Be sure to wear an extra layer of clothing. It was cold!

Really fun experience! You get to see so many sights from the land/sea vehicle with an excellent tour guide! A must-do if you're visiting Halifax!

It was interesting learning about the city of Halifax from land and from the sea. The driver and guide did a great job. The only improvement that I would suggest is to have more speakers on the vehicle. A lot of the time is was very difficult to hear/understand what was being said due to the noise of the vehicle.

A bunch of fun, amusing vehicle, unique experience. See the boardwalk from the water. Quick tour... just an hour. Well worth it

Abigail and captain Geoff, were the best, extremely knowledgeable about everything Halifax has to offer. Made the trip that much more enjoyable. Couldn’t recommend this tour more

A very enjoyable tour. Kris, our tour guide was very friendly, humorous and knowledgeable. The only minus was the poor sound system. Seeing Halifax from the water was a bonus.

The ride on the vehicle was fun, especially on the water. Abigail and Dave were very friendly and Abigail was a great tour guide. However, the sights that we saw were not that interesting for me, but i still enjoyed the tour. It is a shame that we couldnt be closer to land, when on the water, to get a better view of the pretty waterfront.
