Fantastic tour! Loved everything about; from the comfy car ride to the amazing stories and historical details about the area. Enjoyed at great lunch in Fisherman's Cove in Dartmouth. Made a few stops and got to walk around some of the historical sites and monuments. Paul was an absolute delight. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be going on another tour next time we are in town!
