From Farm To Tide

Go beyond the famed wine and food to include the history and tidal landscapes on a private tour of the Annapolis Valley.

Explore the picturesque countryside with knowledgeable guides who share intriguing stories and insights. Taste captivating local wines at Benjamin Bridge winery which is Nova Scotia’s sparkling wine house. On a day-long adventure, we stop to enjoy a gourmet lunch paired with exquisite wines at Le Caveau, the Valley’s oldest winery.

We pair those fantastic wine and culinary delights with a trip to Hall’s Harbour to step into the lowest tides in the world. Photograph unforgettable landscapes along the chiselled coastline. We then drive to the elevated ‘Look Off’ for panoramic views of the Valley’s rolling farms and vineyards as they slope towards the ocean.

Discover the region’s Mi’kmaq, Acadian and British heritage. We’ll uncover stories of resilience and relive engaging stories of the Acadian people at the Grand Pre National Historic Site that inspired the tale of ‘Evangeline’.

To have the best day of your Nova Scotia adventure – book this unforgettable full-day tour to experience the Annapolis Valley where taste buds, history and the tides collide.
