Your tour begins with meeting your entertaining local guide outside of Uncommon Grounds Café in the Halifax Public Gardens. From there, you will begin your walk through the gardens. Halifax Public Gardens is one of the finest surviving examples of a Victorian garden in North America. The Gardens were founded by the Nova Scotia Horticultural Society in 1836 and were recognized as a National Historic Site in 1984. You will experience a peaceful stroll through the grounds, passing by stunning floral foliage.

Next, you will get to see the historic Camp Hill Cemetery, The Halifax Common (Canada’s oldest urban park), and Queen Elizabeth II Health Sciences Centre.

Following your guide, you will pass the Citadel National Historic Site. Citadel Hill led the British military to found the town there in 1749. Among the first buildings constructed was a wooden guardhouse on top, with Halifax’s first settlers building their homes at the base of the hill. Today, the Citadel continues to watch over the city’s downtown core as a reminder of Halifax’s past. This historical location is a must-visit site in Halifax!

After Citadel Hill, you will pass the Halifax Clock Tower, City Hall, and St. Paul’s Anglican Church. You will continue down to the beautiful waterfront, passing the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia on the way. The Halifax Waterfront is a bustling hotspot in the city with one of the world’s longest urban boardwalks spanning the length of the waterfront for 4km (2.5 miles). As you reach Maritime Museum of the Atlantic, your tour will come to an end with free time to explore the incredible museum on your own. You won’t want to miss this incredible Halifax experience!
