CUSTOMIZED MULTI-DAY TOURS
Private Touring Through Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and New Brunswick
If large bus tours aren’t your style, a private multi-day tour might be exactly what you’ve been dreaming of. With over 13 years of guiding experience, I create relaxed, small-group adventures that blend scenic drives, local stories, and the hidden corners of Atlantic Canada that most visitors never see.
These tours are designed around you and your pace, your interests, and your comfort. Whether you want to explore Cape Breton’s coastlines, taste your way through Nova Scotia’s wineries, or wander quiet fishing villages, each itinerary is built to feel personal and unhurried.
Who It’s For
My multi-day tours are especially popular with senior travellers and small private groups who want to explore more and stay longer without rushing from stop to stop.
Traveling privately means you can pause for a photo, linger over lunch, or take a scenic detour whenever you choose. Group sizes usually range from two to six guests, though I can arrange larger groups of up to twelve with advance notice.
What to Expect
Each day begins around 8:30 – 9:30 a.m. and wraps up by 3:30 – 5:30 p.m., balancing travel time with sightseeing and plenty of stops along the way.
Lunch options range from casual cafés to picnic spots overlooking the water, and I always keep a cooler stocked with cold drinks and guest-preferred beverages. Evenings are flexible unwind at your inn, enjoy a local restaurant, or simply watch the sunset.
Tour Options
Option 1 – Halifax Base
Stay in Halifax and enjoy guided day trips each day. It’s a great choice for travelers who prefer to unpack once and explore at an easy pace. Book our day tours online now ! Tour packages
Option 2 – Road Trip Adventure
Venture farther across Atlantic Canada. A sample route might include Cape Breton and the Cabot Trail, a ferry crossing to Prince Edward Island, and a return through New Brunswick’s Hopewell Rocks, Annapolis Valley, and South Shore before circling back to Halifax.
Tours range from three days to two weeks or more, depending on your schedule and interests. See the 7 Day Best of Nova Scotia & 4 Day Cape Breton tours for a good starting point.
Travel in Comfort
You’ll travel in either a Ford Transit 150 XLT (for up to six guests) or a Dodge Grand Caravan (for smaller groups of two).
Both vehicles are licensed and insured for travel throughout Nova Scotia, PEI, New Brunswick, and Newfoundland & Labrador, featuring:
- Air conditioning and ample legroom
- Luggage space for one large suitcase and one personal item per person
- USB charging ports
Customized Itinerary Planning
Planning starts with a chat — by email, phone, or video — to get a sense of your travel style and wish list. From there, I’ll prepare a suggested itinerary that we refine together.
Each finalized itinerary includes detailed daily notes, maps, and route information, with a printed copy provided when we meet.
