This was a really fun and relaxing way to get out on the water. The folks who took us out were really nice and fun.

An excellent boat tour. I booked direct with the company on their website. Very easy to book and very easy to find as we visited by cruise. Gorgeous Boat, I love that it started life back home in London, UK! It’s now an electric boat and was so quiet! A great captain and great guide! A very relaxing sail along Halifax’s harbour front. Sit on the back seat for great views! Highly recommend!

Quaint little boat that is quiet and allows for guide to have good conversation with passengers.

We had a fantastic time! James was a lot of fun. We learned a lot about Halifax in one hour.

It was a wonderful, calm, and relaxed boat trip. The themed atmosphere and, most importantly, the excellent crew — Captain and our guide Nancy — made it unforgettable. Words cannot describe the experience. I truly enjoyed it and would definitely recommend it. A must-have!

This was such a wonderful tour. Relaxed, interesting stories and lots of questions to ask. The boat is beautiful, the Captain and guide were lovely and the tour gives a good overview of the city side of the harbour. It’s not a high octane thrill ride, if that’s what you’re looking for, but it was a great way to see the harbour on a beautiful afternoon.

Excellent Harbor Tour! Thank you.

What a beautiful and wonderful way to see the Halifax harbor. The guide along with the captain provided an amazing tour. Very knowledgeable and extremely fun time.

We had a truly wonderful time on one of the Harbour tours yesterday afternoon, captain Collin and our tour guide (I believe it was Tiana) were so friendly, informative and lovely. It was a perfect way to spend an afternoon on our second day visiting Halifax. What a beautiful and memorable way to see the harbor and learn more about the local history. Highly, highly recommend!!

A wonderful relaxing experience, guided by a cheerful, kind and well-informed couple. Highly recommended!

A very enjoyable experience. All the staff were friendly and very accommodating. Didn’t just blurt out facts and figures but took the time to talk to people in the group. Small group and electric boat added to the tour experience. Well done.

Great Tour, loved the silence of the electric boat. Only 7 people on board, so it was kind of a private tour. Highly recommended!

Great boat ride no engine noise as it is an electric boat. Small group hence it felt like a personal tour and Dog friendly got to bring my little dog ( Buggie ).

Kara and Colin were amazing. We were the only guests so basically got a private tour. Kara could not have been sweeter or more knowledgeable on local history. Highly recommend.

It was a lovely serene trip around the harbour with interesting commentary and on a lovingly restored boat. Highly recommended.

Small capacity all electric boat with great Capt and awesome tour guide. Was a great way to spend an hour of our vacation

We stumbled upon this tour when we were walking along the water on Saturday evening. I spotted the small, but elegant looking boat and saw it was electric. The sign next to the ticket booth indicated they had tours starting shortly with open seats. Our tour guide (whose name I forgot) was simply wonderful. She was very knowledgeable but also left plenty of room for all of us to ask questions. We learned about the geography, the history, and some major events that took place in the harbour. It was just the right amount of info delivered in the right way. We had a smaller group and by the end it felt like traveling among friends. The electric motor made it super quiet and we didn't have to shout or be shouted at. Our captain navigated the water very well and we felt safe the entire time. I cannot rave enough about the tour and the staff. I would highly recommend this tour!

Loved how quiet and peaceful this tour was. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot on our boat tour while relaxing. We even saw seals! Would definitely come back again.

Great tour—friendly guide and super interesting!

An excellent relaxing ride with local flavour beyond what you can read in a history book.

Wonderful experience! I highly recommend this boat tour. Beautiful quiet boat and excellent guide. Smaller groups make it more intimate and conversational than larger tours.

Just a delightful way to tour the harbour with a small group on a very charming boat with a very personable guide and skipper. So glad we did this.

Great scenic tour with knowledgeable guide and captain! The quiet ride made conversation and questions very pleasant and easy.

Knowledgeable guide and captain. Thank you for the great trip on a very unique boat

This was an incredible boat ride for one hour at a very reasonable price. The Tour Guide and the Boat Captain were very knowledgeable, and pointed out a lot of interesting sights as we toured the habor. When the Boat Captain relayed the history of the litle electric boat and its history it was simply fascinating with the length of time the boat had been used, and in three different formats. Chatted a bit with the captain (I'm very former U.S.Navy)and we swapped some stories; his were much better than mine and he was very friendly. And a good boat handler. Just a great experience

Highly recommend taking the tour on your first day. Excellent way to get a feel for the area.

It was quiet and relaxing! A perfect night on the harbour!

The cruise was fantastic! It was a hot afternoon so it was nice being out on the cool water. The boat is electric. It is very quiet, you can talk with the people you're with, or just take in the sounds of the harbour. Brianna was our tour guide. Instead of just shouting facts at us she made us feel like we were out on the water with a friend, letting our conversation cover what we were seeing, but also just getting along with our cruise mates. Our captain Carlo was an expert on the boat's history and participated in the friendly conversation that Brianna facilitated. It was a great experience. Can't recommend it highly enough!

My mom and I had a really good time on our tour, it was a really nice and quiet boat. Highly recommended, very relaxing 😎.

Very nice tour of the harbour in a cute and quiet little electric boat. I was glad because it was quite the intimate tour with 6 other people, which I found preferable to big boats with a big crowd. The captain was funny and had a few good stories to tell. The guide told us about the history of the place. Both were very nice and welcoming. I highly recommend. Ideal for kids too.

It was a beautiful evening 😍 to take a cruise on Halifax Harbour. The sun that brightened our day was setting in the west and a 90% waxing moon was rising in the east. The sea was calm 😌. The Violet Mac cruised almost silently around the harbour as the passengers can enjoy the sites and have a guided tour. I would recommend this tour 😄!!

This was the perfect way to enjoy Halifax Harbor! The boat was a sweet, quiet, comfortable vessel. We loved that it was battery powered. And 1 hour was just right. Highly recommend!!

Loved it! Really super trip on a very quiet, relaxed boat. The small relaxed & quiet trip is in sharp contrast to the noisy, busy & commercial Harbour Hopper & it suited us down to the ground. We loved every minute of it!

We had an absolutely wonderful voyage on your boat it was my mom's birthday and she had a wonderful time thank you sooo much

We did the sunset tour at 8pm which was really nice. A charming boat and relaxed ride around the harbour.

My husband and I recently enjoyed a harbour tour and it was amazing. The small group size and quite boat create a lovely experience. We were fortunate to have Leanne as our captain and Leah as our guide. Their friendly nature, sense of humour and knowledge of the area made this a spectacular part of our trip to Halifax. Highly recommend!

Boat ran very quietly so we could hear our tour guide. Very nice trip.

We had a great Pride tour. Very skilled captain and lovely to be on a boat so quiet for the tour. Very knowledgeable tour guide as well!

This was a great way to see Halifax! Small size group lets you feel as if it's almost a personal tour! It is an electric engine, so no shouting to be heard either! Our guide was Leah, she is very knowledgeable about the area having grown up here, but the best thing about her is her personality. She shared so many personal experiences and stories! It was more like spending time with a long-lost friend! We highly recommend this! Wish we took more pictures but we were having such a great time we forgot!

Thanks for letting us reschedule. We enjoyed ourselves very much!!

Me & my friends loved the relaxing Pride history tour and felt totally safe on it. The tour guide and history guru were wonderful as well. I will continue to bring friends on this sweet boat...that's also environmentally friendly 👍🏼👌🏼 I've been on this beautiful boat 3 times now, and I will continue to go in it for the rest of my life.

This was such a sweet place! We went out on the Violet Mac, guided by Tonisha. The boat really is as quiet as advertised. Both our guide and the captain were friendly and fun to talk to, and it was clear they enjoyed their jobs. We learned a lot and had a fantastic time!

Relaxing, peaceful tour on the harbour. I enjoyed the info given by the guide but also liked that he did not talk non stop making it more relaxing. Even though I have lived in the area my whole life I still learned something new! Would highly recommend!

Wonderful and intimate tour of the Halifax waterfront. The quietness of the boat allows for normal conversation with the friendly guides. The boat is also very comfortable. Would recommend! 🙂

After an initial cancellation due to inclement weather in May, my family and I had a wonderful experience with Halifax Harbor tours in June of this year! Jen, our guide, and Carlos, our Captain, (I hope I got the names right) were spectacular in their roles - helpful, informative and above all, friendly! They were more than happy to help and accommodate any questions that we tourists had. Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking at exploring the harbor. And of course, the beautiful boat, modified to run electric, was powerful and noiseless.

A very pleasant, enjoyable and educational tour. We enjoyed the cruise yesterday afternoon. 🌞🌊❤️🇨🇦🇺🇸

Outstanding tour. great captain and guide. the quiet electric motor and small group size made for our best excursion in canada! thanks!

Amazing experience, fantastic tour guide and captain. Made the experience really special for us and our small kids too.

Le guide était bien, la croisière calme et silencieuse. Le bateau électrique fait toute la différence

New and modern hotel with all amenities, wonderful comfy beds, great linens and very helpful staff! Also great location to explore Halifax from-- would definitely stay here again!!
