This afternoon, we will be leaving Halifax until the end of the tour. You will be whisked away to the picturesque community of Peggy’s Cove, just west of Halifax.

On your visit to Pictou, you will be spending time exploring the Hector Ship Museum, where you will see a replica of the ship Hector that brought 189 Scottish descendants across the Atlantic Ocean to “New Scotland” to begin their new lives in 1773. The ship was originally a cargo ship, but time wore at its hull, until it had to retire in Pictou Harbour.
Following your visit at the Hector Ship Museum, you will have lunch at the Braeside Inn Dining Room, facing Pictou Harbour. You will have your choice of Seafood or Prime Rib for this meal.
When Lunch is finished, you will say farewell to the quaint village of Pictou and travel across the Canso Causeway to the small town of Baddeck.

Day 6:
Today, you rise early to travel the Cabot Trail. This 300 km trail stretches the Northern portion of Cape Breton Island, and passes through some of the most beautiful scenery available in the Maritimes. There will be plenty of stops along the way, so load up on film to take the memories with you. After a stop on the trail for lunch, you will continue onto the Fortress of Louisburg on the southern coast of Cape Breton Island. This fortress is a historic re-iteration of what it was like in the year 1744. The fortress was originally a base for the French’s exploration of the Grand Banks, off the coast of Newfoundland. However, as the years rolled on, the French decided to fortify the town, and the fortifications were finally completed in 1745 on the eve of the first siege against the town. Soon after, the fortress fell to the British, never to be used for military purposes again.
Along with visiting the fortress, you will spend an evening at the Louisburg Playhouse, taking in some of the Cape Breton culture and history before departing to Sydney for the night.

Day 7:
This morning, you will travel west to the small village of Sherbrooke, where you will tour the depiction of life like it was in Nova Scotia before World War One.
