Status: A few tickets are still available for the bus tour. If you wish to be on a waiting list, should it sell out, please fill in the registration form, and Karen will put you in order.
This is the identical run of the July 2025 Nova Scotia Trip. Due to a significant waiting list, this tour was opened up.

We have a limit of only 50 guests. You can travel alone or bring a friend. Once you are confirmed booked, you will receive a detailed booklet outlining exactly the trip timing and other arrangements.
We have arranged a corporate rate for the Alt Hotel at the Halifax Stanfield Airport for those flying in. Those flying in will want to arrive on August 15, 2025. Our dedicated coach bus will pick everyone up at the hotel around 10 a.m. on August 16, 2025, to start their week-long journey. You will get an overview of the trip in the video below.

Hi Mikey,
I am still waiting for Karen to let me know.
Maybe my registration did not go through? Should I try to register again? Is there another way to contact Karen?
Mikey says
I'll check with her in a bit. I am meeting her for easter supper in a few hours. I know the groups are full. I'll see if she got your request and where you are in the waiting list. I'll follow up tomorrow.

Hello,
I am interested in the August bus tour but do have some questions.
- Are any meals included?
- What would the Peggys Cove trip cost? Duration?
- Around what time would the bus leave Halifax to drop off your guests at the Alt Hotel on the last day?
- Would there be some time to see Halifax before and/or after the Peggys Cove excursion?
Thank you
Mikey says
Most of the food is included except when we do a pit stop and release you to go explore in a town to do what you want.
Mikey says
There is an option to go to Peggy's Cove as the bus is taking those who want to go out there. There is no extra cost. Trip is probably max 4 hours out to there and back. If people wnat to stay downtown in Halifax for the museums, food, galleries and shopping, they can. Meal will not be provided to Peggy's Cove if you go out there but you can grab food out there if you wish.
Mikey says
Bus is dropping those who wish to go back to the airport, they are taken back to the hotel on the last night, August 22nd so they can grab their planes early or anytime the next day. Many people are staying in Nova Scotia to extend their journey and will not be heading back as well.
Mikey says
If you are doing Peggy's Cove, you are coming back to meet with our group for dinner. But the Peggy's Cove Tour will be cutting into your exploration of Halifax. You can opt to stay at the Westin and delay your departure home and grab a taxi back to the hotel at your own leisure. Some people are staying a day or two after for this reason at their own expense. Our bus is taking our group back at no charge only on the one evening as our trip is over then.
