What people love about Canadian Maritimes Provinces Tours for Seniors
- Canadian Maritimes Adventure
Overall, the Canadian Maritime Adventure was very good. We had a great tour director and bus driver that made the trip very pleasant. We felt very welcomed by the kind Canadians and loved all the lobster dinners. Our trip included many great adventures and explorations including Hopewell Rocks, whale watching, Green Gables Heritage Place, Alexander Graham Bell National Historic Site, Fairview Lawn Cemetary (Titanic victims) and our favorite, Pegg's Cove Lighthouse. We felt some improvements could be made in the accommodations including Ceilidh County Lodge (worst place we have ever stayed in), the long bus rides and uncomfortable bus. We felt the price was reasonable for the trip, but airfare was very expensive. Also, only breakfast was included so you had to find lunch and dinner on your own which added to the cost. Some of the hotels were far from restaurants and you needed to walk or take taxis to access. We did enjoy our time in that part of Canada and left with great memories.
- Enchanting Canadian Maritimes
Fantastic trip. Well organised and friendly, approachable staff. Was so easy to see so much more than we could have organised on our own. Met some lovely people. So much fun! Will definitely do a tour again and highly recommend.
- Wonders of the Maritimes & Scenic Cape Breton with Ocean Train to Montreal
Our overall experience was good, but were very disappointed by our stay in the last hotel, the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth in Montreal.
