Supernova Tours -

We capped off our five-day trip to Halifax with a South Shore Adventure Tour from Supernova Tours. Elaina and Mike picked us up at our hotel and were our guides for the day!

Elaina and Mike are super friendly and accommodating. It was great to get to know them and have conversations with them as we drove to Peggy's Cove. As residents of the area, their local knowledge is off the charts! They even satisfied our interest in Oak Island. They took us on a slight detour on our trip and stopped by the famous island so we could get a peek!

Peggy's Cove was amazing and we spent our time there taking in the sights of the ocean crashing along the shores and the famous lighthouse.

Lunenburg is beautiful with a busy waterfront and lots to see. Elaina and Mike's local knowledge of the busy crowds and streets proved to be helpful - getting us to an excellent drop off point and pick up location for when we were done our time in Lunenburg.

While all the sights were beautiful, a real highlight was getting to see caves at Ovens Natural Park! Elaina and Mike made sure we were equipped with the information we needed to explore these caves along the ocean and the walking trail. Not only did we get to see and explore the caves, we saw a pod of dolphins swim by the shoreline!

Before returning us to our hotel, Elaina and Mike made sure we stopped at a small park in Halifax to see a piece of anchor shaft from the Mont-Blanc, one of the ships involved in the Halifax Explosion. This large piece of the anchor (1,140 lbs!) was sent 3.8 kms through the air and landed in what is now a park. Again, it was our conversations with Elaina and Mike and their local knowledge that led to this little extra detour!

Supernova Tours was the highlight of our trip! We had a great time with Elaina and Mike and highly recommend their tours. If you are planning a trip to Halifax or the South Shore area, be sure to check out the tours from Supernova Tours. Thanks, Supernova Tours!!!

I want to thank Supernova tours for the wonderful day trip to the South Shore, we saw amazing places, specially Ovens Caves. They are spectacular. Our guides were very friendly and helpful. I fully recommend their tours!

Thanks to Supernova Tours, we had a memorable visit to Lunenberg, the Ovens, Blue rocks, Oak island and Mahone Bay.

Mike and Elaina were responsive when coordinating the pick up location and they made great suggestions of alternate activities in case of poor weather.

Thanks to their recommendation, we enjoyed a tasty lunch at a local pub in Lunenberg where we enjoyed fresh seafood.

Our tour guide Mike was very accommodating as we navigated through our planned tour, allowing us flexibility between planned stops. We were even able to see a Bluenose! To our surprise, we had the chance to visit Oak Island, even while the filming crew was on site.

Even though this is a new business, they have been proven reliable and hospitable.

I recommend them to anyone wanting to explore this region with ease and awe.

Amazing last minute tour with Supernova Tours to Peggy's Cove and Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. Knowledgeable and friendly guide and great customer service overall. Would highly recommend their south shore excursion if you can. PS - try the lobster roll at the Cove!

We were in Halifax as a cruise stop. I booked a private tour for 7 with Mike. He was prompt, communicated very promptly and was a great guide. He took us to some great local spots as well as Peggy’s Cove. Do not hesitate to book with Mike and Supernova Tours for a GREAT day in Halifax!!!

Today my family had a tour with Supernova Tours. We started the day at the Ovens Park, followed by a drive to Lunenburg where we had lunch and saw the Bluenose 2. Afterwards we took the LaHave Ferry across the river and walked the boardwalk at Rissers Beach. It was a great tour of the South Shore and we will return for another one soon!

Thoroughly enjoyed the South Coast Adventure Tour with hosts Elaina & Mike. They are well-travelled and made the day seemed like travelling with good friends (lots of laughter too). They asked us if we had any preferences for things to see (we did want more time at Mahones Bay and Ovens Caves) and pointed out sights while driving along the highway and country roads. They are both knowledgeable about Nova Scotia and answered all our questions. Hated to see the day end, but each of us on the tour said we will definitely return next year.
