Sunkissed Mommy Posted August 7, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 7, 2014 We are having a tour/excursion dilemma! We're going to New England/Canada in October on the Brilliance of the Seas. It will be DH, myself, and DS (19 months old). I know the "must do" places in each port but we're having a real hard time making a decision on what we want to do. I have an entire spread sheet of ideas and I feel like we're stuck!! Here are the options I narrowed down for each port that are a possibility for us. If I missed something that would be good for our little family please feel free to add. Halifax, Nova Scotia Citadel, tugboat from Thomas the Train, HOHO Bus, Titanic Graves & Maritime Museum of the Atlantic, Peggy’s Cove, Boardwalk Saint John, NB Saint John City Tours (Link), Reversing Rapids Railway Tour (RCI), Bay of Fundy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryann ns Posted August 8, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 8, 2014 You will need to rent a car or take a taxi (pricey) or tour to go to Peggy's Cove. It is beautiful. Theodore Tugboat is wonderful for kids and parents too. After all it is a cruise on the harbour. I had lunch on the harbourfront yesterday and enjoyed watching the ferries, Harbour Hopper and Theodore Tugboat go back and forth. There was also a tall ship under sail and a navy ship.

Sunkissed Mommy Posted August 8, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted August 8, 2014 In Saint John are there specific tours that bring you to Bay of Fundy at both high and low tide??? We'd really like to see both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryann ns Posted August 8, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 8, 2014 High and low tides are six hours apart. You would need lots of time and two trips (or one long one.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes me so sad. I will contact them to see if the tug will at least he there so he can see it and we can take some pictures by it.
