Nova Scotia holidays
Nova Scotia stole our hearts the moment we arrived - and we're sure it'll steal yours too. From the dramatic Cabot Trail to harbourside bowls of chowder in Halifax, this breathtaking Maritime province is one of Canada's most rewarding destinations. We've been selling Canada holidays for over 20 years, our team have explored it firsthand, and we can't wait to help you plan something truly special.
Need more inspiration? Our Content Marketing Manager, Hazel, recently visited Nova Scotia and loved her time there:
"Nova Scotia is stunning! We loved exploring Cape Breton and the breathtaking Cabot Trail - go with a guide to learn about the local flora and fauna. The seafood is fresh and affordable – all the lobster you could dream of - and Glenora Inn & Distillery offers a great tour with whisky tasting."
Holidays to Nova Scotia, Canada
Think of rocky shorelines adorned with quaint lighthouses, succulent lobster dishes caught straight from the sea, vineyards and majestic whales splashing in the water, and you’ll have conjured an image of Nova Scotia. Utterly charming, this Canadian maritime province evokes a gorgeous nautical vibe, with plenty of splendid outdoor recreation that will put a smile on anyone’s faces.
Nova Scotia’s wildlife is a big draw. Adorable puffins and cheeky seals can regularly be seen basking in the sun along the coastline, whilst a boat trip along the spectacular Bay of Fundy will grace you with unforgettable views of humpback and finback whales.
Halifax - Nova Scotia’s capital - is lively and vibrant, yet quaint too, with gorgeous Victorian-era Public Gardens, and a sparkling waterfront that just begs to be explored. Dip into cool cafes and wander through picturesque boutiques, or even indulge in a bit of wine tasting. We particularly love Amos Pewter, where you can grab a handcrafted gift or jewellery for a loved one back home. Lunenburg is a gorgeous town in Nova Scotia too, characterised by its brightly coloured houses nestled on the rolling hills of Fairhaven Peninsula.
With over 20 years of experience crafting Canada holidays, our team don't just know Nova Scotia from a brochure - many of us have walked the Cabot Trail, eaten our way around Halifax and watched whales breach in the Bay of Fundy. When you call us, you're getting genuine, firsthand recommendations from people who truly love this destination.
