    Ask for Agnes!

    Highly recommend this tour. Agnes was such a knowledgeable and personable tour guide. It was easy to see that she truly loves her job. We couldn't believe how much she knew about each of the sites and the ease with which she delivered facts and figures - but in a completely casual, comfortable manner. Our family thoroughly enjoyed the day!

    Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg and Titanic Cemetery Full Day Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Halifax.

    How much does Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg and Titanic Cemetery Full Day Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $123 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 Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg and Titanic Cemetery Full Day Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 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 Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg and Titanic Cemetery Full Day Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 85 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 310 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Halifax, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg and Titanic Cemetery Full Day Tour?

    +

    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 Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg and Titanic Cemetery Full Day Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg and Titanic Cemetery Full Day Tour?

    +

    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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg and Titanic Cemetery Full Day Tour 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 Small Group Tour - Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg, the Annapolis Valley, Wine and Lunch Escape, 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.

    What is included in Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg and Titanic Cemetery Full Day Tour?

    +
