Top Nova Scotia Multi-day Tours

The island of Cape Breton offers the escape from the regular hustle and bustle of life you might not know you needed. The island is full of lush and rugged beauty, and this tour helps you explore it. Departing from Halifax, spend three days discovering the history and landscapes of the island, go whale watching, and travel the famed Cabot Trail.

Experience a taste of Maritime history and hospitality on this 3-day tour of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island that departs from Halifax. From a lobster dinner and a walking tour of Charlottetown (the birthplace of Canadian Confederation) to the striking landscape of Peggy’s Cove and its much-photographed lighthouse, this tour will give you an introduction to the East Coast of Canada that will leave you planning your next visit.

Breathe in the fresh Atlantic air, listen to the waves crash on the rugged coastline and feel the sand between your toes – you must be in the Maritimes! You’ll be sure to see plenty of seabirds such as herons, gannets and kingfishers and the (less adorable but very majestic) bald eagle. If that isn’t enough seabirds/life for you then take a whale watching cruise to see humpbacks, minke and more, plus adorable seals! New Brunswick is famous for their lobster, so of course you'll board a lobster boat to enjoy the freshest lobster lunch available. Hike trails on Cape Breton Island, check out the incredible tidal changes and rock formations at the Bay of Fundy, keep our eyes peeled for moose and other wildlife, relax on sandy beaches, and even visit the Anne of Green Gables homestead!

Immerse yourself in the maritime history and vibrant marine environment of New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia. On this 10-day eco-adventure from Halifax led by an experienced adventure guide, get to know the oceans and coasts of the region. Go kayaking through fjords in Norris Point, hike to the summit of Gros Morne Mountain and comb the beaches on Cape Breton Island. Search for the plentiful pilot, minke and humpback whales on a whale-watching expedition and visit some local pubs in St John's. All entrance fees, some meals and overnight accommodations in shared hostel rooms are included.

With red-sand beaches, towering lighthouses, Victorian architecture, and beautiful countryside, Prince Edward Island is the jewel in the crown of eastern Canada—but its remote location makes it hard to reach. On this 5-day tour, explore top attractions including Charlottetown and Green Gables, and savor a traditional lobster supper. With accommodation, some meals, national park entry fees, and round-trip travel from downtown Halifax, see the best of Prince Edward Island with ease.

This 4-day canoe trip was created for the adventurers out there who are looking for something a little more out of the ordinary. With the extra day we're able to push out of the park and into the mysterious Tobeatic. This trip has long days (and portages!) and a lot of hard work but the rewards are truly amazing.

Similar to our 3-day version, but offering an added day for exploration and relaxing, this extended Keji Southern Lakes canoe trip is an excellent opportunity to see the other, less visited side of the park. Sandy beaches, blue lakes and rocky shores set the backdrop for this adventure. My favourite sites are all on southern lakes- come see why.

Overnight in the Oak Island area and learn of the treasure hunters that have ventured to Nova Scotia for hundreds of years. En route, enjoy breakfast in Peggy’s Cove and visit both Lunenburg & Mahone Bay. This getaway to Nova Scotia’s south shore will give you a taste of Maritime culture, history and hospitality.

Paddle with Whynot Adventure through the Tobeatic’s century old legacy of fully guided canoe tripping. Drenched in history and lore and balanced with masterful backcountry cuisine, this trip is designed to allow “the wilderness to welcome you, and teach you, and take you to its heart”. From beginners to seasoned paddlers, this trip is perfect for you.

Our first single-night canoe trip, launched in recognition of the phenomenal stargazing this area is renowned for! The interpretation and programming of this trip will focus on the night sky, and could include cultural interpretations of constellations, night sky photography and mythology.
