Our guide and captain were awesome! Emmett was very knowledgeable on the town’s history and culture. Captain Derrick invited anyone who wanted to drive the boat to come on up! Great little tour of Charlottetown by both land and sea!

Such a unique and fun experience. Great for all ages. Very informative! Definitely a great introduction to the city!

Overview

While lots of tours help you discover Charlottetown’s downtown highlights, not many let you set sail out into the city harbor without ever leaving your ride. On this combination land and sea tour, hop aboard a retrofitted amphibious military vehicle and relax as your driver-guide showcases sights such as City Hall, St. Dunstan’s Basilica, and Victoria Park before heading to the waterfront for a maritime adventure.
  • See Charlottetown sights from a perspective most travelers miss
  • A great vantage point for snapping photos of the city skyline
  • Learn facts about Charlottetown you won’t find in most guidebooks
  • Easily explore the city after the tour from this central location

    Great fun on land and water

    Good tour of the neighborhood and great fun tooling around the harbor. Best moment was the fast drive into the water—like a giant log flume ride.

    Lots of fun!! Great info!...

    Boarding Time

    Royland_C, Jul 2026
    Overall it was a good experience, only suggestion is the check in time, people are waiting under the sun for almost 15-20minutes for staff to start boarding. They are inside their mini office, there are kids and older staff that you need to consider. If you can start the check in early that would be better specially on a hot sunny day. But overall its a fun experience.

We understand that waiting in the sun can be uncomfortable and we'll share your feedback with our team as we continue looking for ways to improve.

    Our guide Glen was fantastic! Learned so much about PEI. I wish he would’ve kept talking while we were out in the harbour, but overall it was a great tour.
