Make this tour your VERY FIRST thing you do in Halifax! Paul's knowledge and passion of all things Haligonian (strange word, I know, but it's correct) will give you not only a simply wonderful time, but a great foundation for everything else you will do there. Paul knows everything there is to know about Halifax and you cannot go wrong with his tour. He'll even buy you lunch. (Okay, I made that part up, but he will take you across the ferry to HAVE a great lunch...) Not only is Paul a fantastic tour guide, he's a super guy that you will enjoy and always remember. TAKE THIS TOUR!

What a great day, learning all about the history of Halifax. Paul was a great tour guide with a wealth of information. The tour was well planned out and definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Nova Scotia.

The South Shore tour was the final of the 3 tours I did with Paul (also did Annapolis Valley and Historic Halifax). Tour starts with a drive out to Peggy's Cove. Gorgeous rocks on a jurrasic looking shore with a charming small light house. From there went to Lunenburg which is a charming fishing village with many great places to eat and a rich history. Also went through Mahone Bay. Paul fills the day with historical facts and many recommendations. Had around 2 hours in Lunenburg on one's own which allowed time for a great lobster and clam chowder lunch (Salt Shaker) and seeing beautiful churches and homes. Highly recommend Paul McNeil for this tour and his others.

My time in Halifax was very rainy. I was there for a conference and limited days for sightseeing. Despite heavy rain on my day to see the city (did also do 2 tours before and after the confernce with Paul before and after the conference to South Shore and Annapolis), Paul showed me and my colleagues the city. He takes you to all the top sights (Public Gardens, Citadel, Dartmouth, cemeteries, etc.) and knows the city and its history thoroughly, In places where the rain was too hard to get out, he stopped and showed videos of the place. Luckily was not raining for the Gardens and fairly minimal for Citadel. Paul is incredilby knowledgable, professional, and kind. I highly recommend.
