    Hi Susanne, thank you for your helpful insight. Unfortunately, Canada continues to battle various wildfires and the impacts of these natural occurances can create extensive trail closures. We always do hope to include enjoyable alternatives should the need arise, and we are sorry to read that you did not like your tour as much as we always hope our travellers to. Thank you for your feedback- it will be put to good use.

    Reply from: Intrepid Travel
    Hi Sheila, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're discouraged to hear that you found the accommodations used on your The Maritimes: Nova Scotia trip to be substandard, as our aim is to provide lodging that not only offers comfort but also connects our travellers to the local culture and community. While we strive to select simple tourist-class hotels (typically 2-3 stars) that reflect the character of each destination, we regret that your experience did not meet expectations. We greatly appreciate your feedback and will share your comments with the relevant teams. Thank you again for sharing your experience.

  • D

    Derek

    Asked on February 11th, 2026

    I have never been on a tour and wondered if there were any shorter times available. Also I am not a fancy person. I am nervous about what to wear and are the lodgings fancy?

    Accommodation
    Tour Details
    • Intrepid TravelOperator•Written February 2026

      We actually have a few departures scheduled throughout May. The itinerary itself is fixed for this particular tour, but if you're looking for something shorter, I'd be more than happy to check other tours that may better suit the length of time you have in mind.

      Please don't worry at all about being fancy. Our tours are relaxed and comfortable. Lightweight, breathable clothing that you can layer is perfect. As weather can change, it's always wise to bring a warm outer layer and a waterproof jacket :) even in summer.

      The accommodation is comfortable hotel-style lodging for 6 nights. It's welcoming rather than formal, so there's no need to dress up. Occasionally, due to availability, a similar standard hotel may be used, but it will always be of comparable quality.

  • G

    Gina

    Asked on January 11th, 2026

    Are there any options available for those with mobility issues, such as renting a scooter? Additionally, what kind of transportation is used for this adventure?

    Transport
    Travel Support
    • Intrepid TravelOperator•Written January 2026

      Are there any aspects of group travel or the itinerary that might be challenging for you in regard to mobility? What adjustments might you require to participate fully and have a safe and enjoyable trip? Please ensure you consider the included activities, accommodation, transport as well as the destination in general.

      How far can you walk confidently and without assistance or tiring? Can you manage the distances and physical activities outlined in the Essential Trip Information for your chosen trip?

      How well can you manage steps and stairs with and without handrails or steep slopes?

      How well can you manage getting up and down from the ground or from low seats?

      How well can you manage standing for long periods of time?

      Please look carefully at the type of transport included on your chosen trip. Will you be able to get in and out of the vehicles or board and disembark unaided? What further information do you need about transport to understand whether it is accessible for you?

      How do you manage with uneven surfaces and different types of terrain (ie. cobblestones, gravel, sand, rocks)?

      Please look carefully at the accommodation included on your chosen trip. Not all properties have fully accessible rooms or walk-in showers. Are there any accessible room or bathroom features that you need (if available)?

      Do you use any mobility aids (wheelchair, walker, scooter, walking frame or stick etc)? Please provide details including dimensions when in use and folded, weight, battery requirements etc.

  • D

    Donald

    Asked on October 24th, 2025

    We're searching for a tour for our travellers, one of whom requires the use of a mobility aid/scooter. They have advised us that one of the travellers can walk short distances, but does require a scooter for longer distances. Is this something you'd be able to accommodate, please?

    Tour Details
    Travel Support
    • Intrepid TravelOperator•Written October 2025
