Hello! Welcome to our Nova Scotia travel guide – designed to give you practical advice about visiting Nova Scotia.
It’s winter now, so check out some great Nova Scotian activities for the cold weather. Or, plan for your summer vacation…
Learn where to go, what your trip will cost, what to do with kids and see itineraries for what you can do in a short visit, in a week or 14 days.
Find out how to get around by car, motorhome, bus, shuttle bus, train or even bicycle!
Visiting Halifax? We also have ideas about where to stay (including near the airport) and what to see and do when you visit the capital city.
And don’t forget to save time for our many beautiful regions like Cape Breton and the Annapolis Valley. There’s so much to explore:
- Where can I go in Nova Scotia? What can I do in a few days or in a week or two weeks? Which places shouldn’t I miss? What are the best museums?
- In Halifax, tell me what to see and do, the best places to stay, how to get around and what to do with kids?
- Where can I go whale watching? Try tidal bore rafting? See great beaches?
- How much should I budget? What currency do I need? Can I use American dollars, my credit card or ATM card?
- Can I arrive by plane, ferry or road?
- Is driving a good way to get around? Can I rent a car? What if I don’t have a car? How about trains and buses? What about transport for disabled people?
- When should I come? What can I do in the summer months of June, July and August? What’s it like in September and October?
- What kind of accommodation will I find? Do I need to book ahead? Are there hostels?
