      About this trip

      This fantastic tour features the Royal Nova Scotia International Military Tattoo Festival, The Bay of Fundy, Halifax, Saint John, and the beautiful Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia!


      Join Best of Times Travel as we head to Nova Scotia Canada. Our tour begins as we travel to Saint John, New Brunswick. We spend 5 days exploring the beautiful shores and countryside of Nova Scotia. We begin with a brief overview of Saint John, famous for its Reversing Falls in which the force of the Bay of Fundy tides cause the Saint John River to reverse direction twice daily. Then travel through the scenic Fundy National Park to Hopewell Rocks on the Bay of Fundy where the largest tides in the world have carved out gigantic flower pot shapes which practically disappear when the tide is in. Then it’s onto one of the highlights of your trip: the Royal Nova Scotia International Tattoo. The Tattoo is unlike any other show in the world. Military bands, pipes and drums, choirs, gymnasts, dancers, military displays and competitions offer the most exciting 2 1/2 hours of entertainment ever found under one roof! Enjoy luxurious accommodations at our resort hotels. Delight in scrumptious meals and exceptional service. A ton of fabulous views, tours, and more make this program the perfect getaway!

      We truely enjoyed the trip —— hotel was great our tour manager did a good job keeping everyone informed. On the return home the stop was the Baseball Hall of fame——— now it took about 1 hour 10 minutes to get thru customs ( not the tour agency fault) then a 4 1/2 hr ride to Cooperstown. So we basically had 1 hour 15 min there (really) you had to decide to do lunch or hall of fame. We choose the hall BUT it really was not enough time to enjoy all there was to see. Promoting the Hall of Fame on this trip would be very disappointing if that stop was part of making the decision to go on this trip.

      Our experience was 5 out of 5. The tour folks, Kathy, Stephanie and driver Joanne were fantastic. It was like they were part of the group as well as tour directors. They were knowledgeable and quite helpful. The Falls were quite mesmerizing. There was so much to do in a couple of days. Being able to set your own schedule one of the days gave us the freedom to pick what we personally wanted to do on our own. I wish we had more time for the baseball hall of fame. You really need a whole day in Cooperstown. But it was still a pleasurable experience. The fun started on the bus when we got to meet some nice people. Financially and the timing fit perfectly for us. It's a 'must do'.

      Fantastic show. I love the way Ricky Nelson's sons talked about lives growing up with their father and showed the videos. The venue was great.

      We drove ourselves to this one to save some money which was nice. We arrived at 11:30 as directed and it was nice to have a salad and bread waiting, but the rest of the meal took 2 hours. Show didn’t start till 1:30 - too long to wait! The meal was good, the lemon cake dessert was great. Gunner and Matthew were very enjoyable. I liked all the background information they gave us about the Ozzie and Harriet show, and their lives and the life of Ricky.
