  • “ Wir haben mit meinem Mann in einer 4er Gruppe (Gäste von TUI MeinSchiff1 /gebucht über Meine Landausflüge) unter Führung von Guide & Driver Adrian die Tour "Das beste von Halifax/Stadtrundfahrt und Besuch des Küstenortes Peggy's Cove "absolviert.Es war ein sehr informativer und auf die individ. Wünsche der Gäste angepasster Ausflug der Superlative gewesen.Man merkt Adrian ist sehr gebildet und kennt sich in der Gegend gut aus,da er hier aufgewachsen ist.Sein Englisch war für uns leicht verständlich,seine Erzählungen hatten Humor. Es war eine sehr informative und entspannte Tour. Es gab Empfehlungen für Restaurants und er hat uns zu einem tollen Indian Summer Foto Spot gebracht,obwohl es ihn 30min mehr Zeitaufwand gekostet hat.Obendrauf hat er ein Talent als Fotograf,das Foto, was er für uns gemacht hatte, kommt in den Bilderrahmen bei uns. ”

  • “We were very happy with activity provider See Sight Tours who were quick to respond to questions; confirmed pick up location. Driver Brittany was delightful, knowledgeable and shared information as she safely drove to Peggy's Cove. Car was spacious and she offered an alternative drop-off so we could walk downhill back to cruise terminal when done (saving us a steep uphill climb later.)”
