We had a great trip with Zamir. The area is beautiful. Highly recommend. So nice to have a private tour as opposed to large buses!
This was a good tour to see Peggy's Cove, the Swissair Flight 111 Memorial, the Fairview Lawn Cemetery and a few other Halifax sites. Our tour guide Aamir shared quite a bit of information with us, partly because we asked lots of questions. We enjoyed that it was a private tour for our group of 6 only.
Very beautiful experience at Peggy’s Cove. Emotional experience at the Swissair 111 memorial and the Titanic graveyard! Super informative about both accidents.
Our tour guide GURU was very friendly and very knowledgeable about all of the places that we visited.
Adam was courteous and very kind. We were a group of four, visiting Peggy’s Cove, Fairview Cemetery where many from the Titanic were buried, the Citadel and other great views around Halifax. He purchased some souvenirs for us too! His driving was a little aggressive at times but overall a great tour!
We had an amazing private tour of Halifax with our guide, Birhanu! Peggy’s Cove was absolutely beautiful, and the entire day was filled with incredible scenery and interesting places that we would never have known to visit on our own.
We came to Halifax knowing we definitely wanted to see Peggy’s Cove, but honestly, we weren’t very prepared with a list of other things to see. Birhanu took care of that! He showed us so much of Halifax, including the Titanic cemetery and the Swissair Flight 111 Memorial, the Citadel and shared the history of the Halifax Explosion along the way. His knowledge and stories really brought the area to life.
We also loved how relaxed and personalized the tour was. We were free to stop whenever we wanted to take photos and enjoy the scenery, and we never felt rushed. Birhanu even provided fresh fruit and water to help keep us hydrated throughout the day, which was such a thoughtful touch.
We enjoyed getting to know Birhanu as well. He was happy to answer our questions about himself and his family, and those conversations made the tour feel much more personal than simply sightseeing with a guide.
By the end of the day, we felt like we had gotten to know Birhanu and had become quite fond of him. When it was time to say goodbye, we each gave him a hug — which really says everything about how comfortable and connected we felt after spending the day together.
We highly recommend Birhanu for anyone looking for a knowledgeable, thoughtful, and personable guide. He gave us a wonderful introduction to Halifax and made our day truly memorable!
The drive to the village was about 45 min but the scenery along the way was quite lovely. Peggy’s Cove is wonderful, colorful, unique. Wear sneakers if you want to climb on the rocks. The views are spectacular and the landscape is interesting. We also saw the SwissAir 111 memorial and the Titanic cemetery. Quite moving. Our guide Ziyan was very pleasant and made a nice tour for us. It was a well-rounded and enjoyable day.
Doug is very knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor. We had a great time! Beautiful tour. Taking a private tour was a wonderful experience.

Thanks so much for the kind words! So glad Doug's knowledge and humor made the tour extra fun, and that the private tour gave you the space to really enjoy it your way. Thanks for choosing Bonway Travel, hope to see you again soon!
Very nice visit to the lighthouse and the city. Our guide, by private car, took the time to introduce us to the main points of interest in Halifax, with clear and adapted explanations.
A pleasant and well conducted visit.
