Join us as we explore the heritage of the Lighthouse Route and learn the stories behind Peggy’s Cove, Mahone Bay, and Lunenburg, when and why they were settled, the history of the fishery, and the natural history of the Atlantic Coast...
Discover the connections between coastline, geology, landscapes, climate, and natural resources that have sustained these communities for some 250 years -- the shipbuilding and fishery: the gold rush of the 1800s: the aquaculture and Christmas tree farming. Learn about the “who-what-when-why-and-where” of settlements by foreign Protestants, the economic contrasts between the in-shore fishery of Peggy’s Cove and the off-shore fishery of Lunenburg, the local architecture, the triumphs and tragedies of wooden ships and iron men. Explore at your own pace or join our complimentary walking tour of Peggy’s Cove and Lunenburg`s UNESCO World Heritage Site.

1.00We were assigned a driver, not a guide. This was just a ride — not a guided experience., no commentary, and a YouTube video instead of real info. There was absolutely no historical information shared. The overview specifically states, "Your guide also provides commentary about each village's history and traditions that stretch back over 250 years." We received none of it. Totally misrepresented. To make it worse, Viator acts only as a booking agent and refuses to take full responsibility. Waste of time and money. Avoid the tour company Aberdeen & Viator/Tripadvisor.

4.00If I’m writing a review for a taxi service, I would give this five stars. The driver was friendly. The vehicle was clean.. if however, I’m giving a review for a tour give it three stars. The driver spoke not great English and was not super knowledgeable about the area. He was also rather soft spoken.
Do not book with this company

1.00What was marketed as a professionally guided historical tour turned out to be a completely misrepresented, substandard experience that fell far below acceptable standards. Despite the description promising a knowledgeable driver/guide, live commentary, and cultural insights, we received someone telling us nothing. We had to google all our questions. A driver, not a guide, who admitted she usually does airport transfers and had no historical knowledge of the tour route or destinations. No commentary or historical background at any stop. Missed locations listed in the itinerary (e.g., Chester and the "oldest gift shop," ). Missed turns multiple times, and the tour started late with no prior communication. We were told that the tour started late because the car needed inspection. When Viator contacted the company they said the tour was late because the ship got into port late. This is an out right lie! We actually got into port early. Driver was difficult to understand as she had an accent and lack of English. This was not a guided tour, and what was delivered was not what is advertised on your website. Do not book through TripAdvisor or Viator. TripAdvisor owns Viator. Do not book with Aberdeen Tours.
Awful, uninformative, uncomfortable trip

1.00The tour company “overbooked” so send us with a man who knew next to nothing about the area. We drove for hours to get to Peggy‘s Cove. The car was so tiny that we were mashed together. We got very little information from him at all the whole day. It was the worst tour we had on our entire Canada trip. I do not recommend this company.

1.00You should ask what the vehicle is they’re going to use and will you or somebody else be forced into using the third extra seat in an SUV. It is unbelievably uncomfortable.
Peggy’s cove stands out!

4.00Our favorite stop was Peggy’s Cove. What an amazing location. We had plenty of time to walk around and explore. The lighthouse and rocky coast were spectacular. Lunenburg was just a short stop for us and we could have used a bit more time to explore. The vehicle was ok but in the third row the ladies could not see much and one seatbelt was missing. Having a private tour was nice as we got to the locations a bit before all the huge cruise ship buses.
Very pleasant experience

5.00Our tour guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. She spaced all the attractions based on our interests and allotted enough time to explore. Smooth ride.

3.00We booked this tour with high expectations, but unfortunately, it didn’t quite deliver. The car provided was much too small for our group, which made the ride uncomfortable. Our guide was polite but very quiet, offering very little commentary along the way. We were hoping for more insights, history, and local knowledge to make the experience special, but it felt more like just a ride from one place to another. That said, the tour did run on time and the sites themselves were beautiful, which is why I’m not leaving a 1-star review. With a larger, more comfortable vehicle and a guide who is more engaging, this could have been a much better experience.
Cancelled at the last minute

1.00The tour was cancelled at the last minute, and since the refund window had already closed 24 hours before, I had two options: Wait and maybe not get a tour at all because if this one would be cancelled in the morning, it'd be too late to book any other. Or book another ahead of time and risk losing my money because I couldn't get a refund. I went with the first option and luckily found Anchor Tours which saved my day by providing a last-minute offer. Maybe this one offers a good tour - from what I read at least. But if you do book, make sure to do it a couple days before, and cancel if it isn't confirmed before the refund window closes. Lesson learned.
