Halifax Hopper Tour

Published on Dec, 2024

We loved the hopper tour. We went with family from Nova Scotia. Great guided tour with a fun vibe. Beautiful way to see the harbour and the city.

A Fun Way to see Halifax by Land and by Sea!

Published on Nov, 2024

This tour takes you for a half hour land tour of downtown Halifax in an old military amphibious vehicle, which then proceeds into the water for a half hour harbor tour. The splash down is lots of fun! The tour guide was interesting and provided lots of history of the city. Definitely a worthwhile thing to do in good weather, not so sure about doing it in the rain!

Great Value

Published on Nov, 2024

This was a great way to be introduced to Halifax. Our tour guide was terrific and gave us a wonderful trip with great information.

Great fun

Published on Nov, 2024

Had a great time on the Harbour Hopper on the road and in the water. The girl doing the commentary was really good and I learnt a lot about Halifax. The views on the road were good as you are quite high up and you get a great view of the waterfront when you're on the water. It was really easy to book in the office near where the tour starts from. The driver even sang us a bit of Barratt's Privateers , at the end, which is my favourite maritime song.

Worth it

Published on Nov, 2024

Had a great time on this tour! It was both fun and informative, with plenty of interesting facts along the way. My family enjoyed the tour. FYI the pickup location is about a 10 minute walk from Pier 22 (Princess Cruise dock)
