Charming town and great lobster rolls - A lovely tour to Lunenburg. Our guide Nilan was great, very informative and had nerves of steel, kept calm, since a road closure made us turn back from the main highway, lots of trafic jams but she got us to Lunenburg on time for us to enjoy many hours of touring. We were lucky the Blue Nose was in and we could visit it and the Fisheries Museum and enjoy a fantastic lobster roll at Salt. A day to remember and we recommend this tour to every one and if you are lucky you will get Nilan our guide.

Great value for seeing wonderful towns - Great day trip. Well worth the price. Your guide is very knowledgeable about the areas that are visited. Would have liked a little more time in each area.

Great day excursion - Our guide Nylah was fantastic. She was professional and knowledgeable pointing out a variety of points of interest in Lunenberg. We had the best lobster roll at The Salt Shaker.The staff there were very friendly and accommodating. On our way back to the hotel, Nylah took a slightly longer more scenic route stopping in some quaint little towns for a photo opp. She even stopped at a beautiful beach allowing us to take some time to dip our toes in the Atlantic. Thank you Nylah!

Historic Lunenburg - The only negative point is the time allocated for the visit, we would have certainly spent an hour or two more. Charming little town with well-preserved buildings. We walked to Lunenburg Academy, it is a magnificent facility. Our lunch was provided at the Salt Shaker restaurant, where we could choose whatever we wanted. The plates are huge! And last point: the guide/driver is a precious mine of information and extremely kind!

Not worth the money - There were no memorable parts of this tour. I was disappointed as we were dropped off at the Harbour and were told that we were on our own for 4 hours. Being a very hilly town it was hard to get around. The Lobster Roll was horrible. The bread was either stale or very old as I didn't eat it. I just ate the Lobster. Very disappointed.

Could have done without - Feel for the guy that did the tour, but he was late because the person who was supposed to take us, called in sick 30mins prior. Replacement admitted he didn't do this tour and so didn't really know a lot. Not worth paying the extra for a lobster lunch. It's a lobster roll at salt shaker, but you can go there by yourself. Instead we had an awkward lunch with the group we were touring with. Also, not many stores were open (we went a Sunday in May), so the 2 and a half hour free time was way too long
