Nova Scotia is a place of remarkable natural beauty and thriving culture. Relax at Peggy’s Cove fishing village, go on a whale watching trip, tour the Cabot Trail on Cape Breton Island or explore one of Canada’s Seven Wonders – Pier 21 – on a Halifax tour. Late September and October are a great time to visit Nova Scotia to view the changing colours of the fall foliage, especially on a tour of the Cabot Trail. Ride Atlantic Canada’s first gondola to the top of Cape Smokey to experience the best view of the Cabot Trail with access to mountain top hiking trails and a licensed mountain top snack shop. Hiking trails are located at the top all the way to Ski Lodge Lake gondola. Savour the spectacular views and enjoy a cold beverage at the Summit Shack before taking the gondola back down to the base of the mountain.
Explore Halifax, the bustling seaport capital. Experience the awe of the world’s highest tides along the Bay of Fundy. Discover Old Town Lunenburg, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Nova Scotia is also known for its culinary delights, from Atlantic salmon and fresh-caught lobster to succulent Digby scallops. Take a winery tour with a renowned sommelier and sample the award-winning vintages.
