We enjoyed our day and Bob was an excellent guide. The Fortress of Louisbourg was interesting. One of our favorite parts was getting out to the lighthouse. There were only a few other people there so it was a great sight to take pictures and enjoy the views of the Harbor.
Not a Happy Camper!!!!

The tour operator cancelled our tour because not enough people signed up to make it worthwhile for them. Fortunately I found another tour to go on. I have still not received a credit from the operator. I have also contacted Viator and havent heard back from them regarding a refund. Will have to file a claim with my credit card company.
Wonderful!

Our tour guide/driver Gaston was friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. He provided local insight as well as factual information; answering our questions as a retired educator can. The lunch recommendation was spot on! Especially the seafood chowder was wonderful and yummy 😋. Blackwood Tours is to be commended for a job well done!
Great for those that love history

The Fortress of Louisbourg and lighthouse were amazing. Our guide provided great insight into the history and local history. The walking tour of the fortress (not included in the tour) was well worth the time and minimal cost. They provided additional insight into the fortress and that time in history. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you are a student of or love history.

We had good self guided visit of the fort. Arriving in time to hook up with a guided tour would have made this excursion superb. We missed it by 5 minutes. Thank you Robert for advance communications and coordination. Thank you Geoff for the detailed city tour.
