Traveler Tips
Once we arrived and had a bathroom break, listen to the guide's brief talk about lobsters, grab lunch at the lobster roll food truck, we didn't have enough time to walk to the lighthouse or shop.
It would be much more pleasant with less visitors around.

Fall at Peggy Landing.
Donna_M, Oct 2022
We had a great lobster dinner at the Sou’wester Resturant; the waitress brought a hugh live lobster for us to examine; before she took it away to be cooked. A tasty fresh lobster; made our trip to Peggy’s landing a highlight of our fall Princess Cruise on the Enchanted. It was a lovely day and a wonderful tour by an extremely knowledgeable narrator. We were returned right to our ships door. An added blessing of our driver and narrator-. !
Lovely Day Trip

Too many people
Sheree_M, Oct 2022
so many guests, everyone arrived at same time. I counted 6 buses unloading at same time. Would be better to stagger arrive times. Too many people
Excellent Tour Guide, Not so great Cove...
Becky_D, Oct 2022
The tour guide was excellent. He had a great sense of humor, and still was able to show us many beautiful and memorable sites. Peggy's Cove was not exactly the best part of the trip. It was a great view, and the colorful houses were pretty, but it would have been enough to just slowly drive through the tiny town. How it got to be the main point of the tour is beyond me. A few "artisan" and souvenir shops, and pretty good lobster rolls at Tom's. I would not do this tour again.
The Best!

Our tour guide Carl and driver Dave were the best. Very patient with our bus load and made for a funny, wonderful trip!

Leslie was a great tour guide! She knew her history and geography of the area. We learned quite a bit about Halifax, Peggy’s Cove and the surrounding area. Dave did a great job at the driving.
A perfect day to Peggy's Cove
