About the trip

This Riviera Travel escorted solo holiday opens with two nights in Halifax, where the 19th-century Citadel hillfort and the Titanic victims’ graves at Fairview Lawn Cemetery offer contrasting views of history. Then the route takes you along the Nova Scotia coast to Peggy’s Cove lighthouse and the brightly painted town of Lunenburg, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Crossing the Bay of Fundy by ferry brings the tidal extremes and the Reversing Falls Rapids into sharp relief, before the calm streets of St Andrews-by-the-Sea invite exploration, with a free day to wander streets lined with Georgian houses and galleries. Later, a visit to Fundy National Park and the Hopewell Rocks reveals sandstone formations shaped by the highest tides on Earth, followed by two days on Prince Edward Island and its pastoral scenery, lively Charlottetown and the Anne of Green Gables Museum.

The tour culminates with visits to Cape Breton Island's Alexander Graham Bell Museum in Baddeck and the Cabot Trail, which snakes through Cape Breton Highlands National Park’s thickly forested river canyons and offers several lookout points to take in the coastal cliffs and the Atlantic Ocean. The holiday includes a mix of guided tours and free afternoons, finishing with a leisurely morning before departure.
