Our Favorite Small Towns - All Along The South Shore TourExplore > Canada > Nova Scotia > Our Favorite Small Towns - All Along The South Shore Tour
OverviewA day of enchantment! With your private guide at the wheel, we will explore interesting and charming locations along Nova Scotia's south shore. When the Titanic sank in the North Atlantic in 1912, many of the victims were laid to rest in Nova Scotia's Fairview Cemetery. A stop here will make the luxury liner's story seem much more real as you view some of the 121 graves of Titanic victims. On a lighter note, our tour continues on to the sleepy town of Chester, population 1,200. With leafy streets, beautiful homes and magnificent harbor views, Chester is a lovely place to explore. Mahone Bay is a picture perfect post card! A stop will be made at this fishing village, giving you the opportunity to view the charming cottages, browse the art galleries and interesting shops, visit the museum dedicated to its boat building history and enjoy the 3 local churches. Moving a little farther down the coast is the UNESCO World Heritage town of Lunenburg. Rich in maritime history, a guided tour will provide many stories of pirates and ship wrecks along Nova Scotia's rugged coastline and the possibility of buried treasure on Oak Island. - Please note: All tour times are local port times. - Please be aware that some ships do not adjust to local time when in port. Halifax is on Atlantic time, so the local time may be +1 hour from ship time. Please double check with your cruise line. Best reference is your daily newsletter delivered to your cabin for port time information or your ships guest relations desk. - The exact route and itinerary will vary according to the weather and traffic. - This tour includes short walks on unpaved trails, with occasional uneven ground and the possibility of small wet spots. Wear comfortable walking shoes. - Nova Scotia has a maritime climate, producing weather that is changeable, cool, and moist. Temperatures on this trip will rarely exceed 75 F (25 C) and may be much cooler in the autumn. It is usually breezy (or windy) along the coast. The cancellation policy on this tour is outside the normal ShoreTrips terms of service. The tour is non refundable 14 days prior to the tour date. Further, if your ship does not make port, this tour will be non-refundable. Please take out travel insurance to cover this rare occurrence.
