I've never done a bus tour before and didn't really think it would be my thing but I had a lot of fun! It was a great way to see some attractions and get ideas of what I wanted to do next. It was also really fun transitioning to the water and seeing some of the waterfront and downtown from there. I do wish the part being on the water was a bit longer but overall we had a great time and I think it was worth the cost. It also helped that we had really nice weather. It was a super hot day but when you're on the bus it was actually quite breezy and nice.

Oh my, so much fun. We went as a small group despite the rain, as we wanted to see an overview of the city and check out the harbor. They have an awesome team of staff; right from the booking staff to, the tour guide, to the driver - all were very friendly and helpful. Such a neat experience to be able to go from land to water in the same vehicle. Definitely a must do when visiting Halifax!

It is an amphibious vehicle. It moves over the land and sea. It brought us to all of the stops we wanted to see in downtown Halifax as well as part of the harbor. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the city. Her commentary was very informative. She was so friendly. While having dinner at one of the outdoor restaurants within the harbor area, at the end of the tour, then someone came by and said hello. I looked up to see that it was our guide. I was very impressed.

Great tour! We usually do our own thing but we're really glad we took this one. Our guide (a New Zealand fella) was great. Funny, informative, and he did a good job covering everything without being boring. Halifax has a lot of history and I can't think of a better way to learn about it. Bonus points for the amphibious bus being a really neat piece of history on it's own!

Fun hour of touring Halifax by land and water! Our tour guide was lovely, but it felt as though he had a script overloaded with facts that he was determined to get through, he spoke that quickly. We brought along my 92 year old mother whose own mother (our grandmother) was crossing on the ferry between Halifax and Dartmouth and witnessed first hand the Halifax explosion when she was a young teenager. We mentioned this to the guide who said "Really?" and went on with his rehearsed script. This personal and very relevant Halifax story would likely have been of interest to others on the tour and worth mentioning, but disappointingly the guide was not able or willing to do so.
