My girlfriend and I recently stopped in Halifax on a cruise ship and had booked a Bluenose Sidecar Tour prior to our arrival in Halifax. As promised, Vicki and Kevin were pierside as promised with all the necessary gear to make our day with them a spectacular adventure. The sidecars were very comfortable as where the leather jackets to ward... More

Different way of seeing things, the fresh air feels good, & interactive with both pedestrians & each other with the in-helmet speaker systems! Vicki is a character to meet! More

Great personalized tour. The guides provide everything necessary, including a heavier overcoat if the weather is cooler than expected. As you ride along, everyone on a single bike/sidecar has wireless communications with each other so you're constantly chatting about the sites, asking questions, hearing stories about the history of the area. This is, without a doubt, the best way to... More

I just want to thank Vicki and Kevin for taking me and my 7 and 9 year old boys out today. A beautiful afternoon in every regard: immaculate and smooth running classic sidecar rigs, a sunny day, and a great choice of an "off the beaten path" Nova Scotia location to visit. Definitely a ten out of ten points experience!... More

If you want see Halifax without the crowds and like a little adventure, this tour is for you. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the sidecar experience, the fishing villages, and especially meeting and talking with the locals in Halifax. The personalized service was wonderful, and everything was provided to keep us toasty warm if necessary while we were touring.... More

Kevin was the perfect guide for my afternoon of touring. He was knowledgeable and interesting. I learned a lot about Halifax and the Peggy's Cove area as we viewed the stunningly beautiful scenery. If you are in Halifax, don't miss the opportunity to take this tour! More

My fiancee and I recently visited Halifax by cruise ship & didn't want to do one of the cruise sponsored excursions. Thanks to TripAdvisor we found Vicki & Kevin's unique take on tours and weren't disappointed. We originally wanted to do the Peggys Cove tour but another cruise passenger had already booke them for that so they offered us an... More

Had a great time with Vicki and Kevin. They really knew the area and the people and personalized our afternoon. We talked with people on our cruise who drove past attractions too big to fit a tour bus. We were able to go in and see things they only waved at. Riding around Halifax in sidecars was a unique experience... More

Myself and my boyfriend did the Halifax city tour with the blue nose side car tour! What an amazing and different way to see the city! Our date that we originally had booked ended up raining and Vicki and Kevin were quick to accommodate us for the following morning! A great thing about this tour is that they will customize... More
