Fairview Lawn Cemetery
As you leave Peggy's Cove and head back to Halifax (1:00 hr. approximate time), your next stop will be the Fairview Lawn Cemetery, where the remains of 121 Titanic victims are interred. The tragic loss of the RMS Titanic on April 15, 1912, was felt all over the world, including in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Due to Nova Scotia's close proximity to the Titanic's last known position, recovery ships from Halifax were dispatched to conduct the grizzly task of recovering those who perished. Halifax is home to the largest concentration of Titanic graves in the world. As you walk through the cemetery, you'll learn about the lives of those who were lost, the details surrounding the memorial, and the heartbreaking story of the unknown child of the Titanic.

A beautiful trip
Our driver/guide Jeff did an outstanding job of getting us there and back. Very knowledgeable. Saw some beautiful countryside.

A must do
Nilah our guide was a wealth of information from start to finish. She narrated the history of the area we were passing through on the way to Peggy’s cove, and explained in detail the titanic cemetery history in a way where you actually listened and learned. Never boring.
via Viator
Very informative and interesting Tour
The highlight of our trip. Nilah was very well versed on the history of Halifax and passionate about the people of this city. She shared her knowledge of the historical events that is changing the landscape of Halifax over the most recent years. Peggy's Cove was a delightful stop in a quaint village and the visit to the Titanic cemetery was very informative. A must visit tour while in Halifax!

Peggy’s Cove & Titantic gravesites
The guides had incredible knowledge of the area. They made sure the guests were comfortable. It was an excellent tour. Peggy Cove is magnificent. We found the Titantic gravesites moving with the stories provided by the guide. We also appreciated how she treated the site respectfully as much more than a tourist attraction.

The guide was great. She...
The guide was great. She had wonderful knowledge of the area. Told some good stories of Halifax. Unfortunately the small bus was not the best. It was very cramped and did not provide enough space for the amount of people. It was very claustrophobic. It was a long ride to and from Peggy's Cove.

Why this scores 86
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Half Day Small Group Tour in Peggy's Cove and Titanic Cemetery: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Halifax.
How much does Half Day Small Group Tour in Peggy's Cove and Titanic Cemetery cost?
+
Prices start at $79 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Halifax usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Half Day Small Group Tour in Peggy's Cove and Titanic Cemetery take?
+
Plan for about 4.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Halifax is not rushed.
Is Half Day Small Group Tour in Peggy's Cove and Titanic Cemetery worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 310 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Halifax, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Half Day Small Group Tour in Peggy's Cove and Titanic Cemetery?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Half Day Small Group Tour in Peggy's Cove and Titanic Cemetery suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Half Day Small Group Tour in Peggy's Cove and Titanic Cemetery?
+
Around 109 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Halifax can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Halifax and add a light layer if any part of the 4.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Half Day Small Group Tour in Peggy's Cove and Titanic Cemetery start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Halifax within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Halifax?
+
On Outty we rank every Halifax experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Wine and Lunch Escape, Small Group Tour - Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg, the Annapolis Valley, Half-Day Historical Tour of Halifax. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Halifax?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Halifax?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
