Board Halifax's beloved bright-orange amphibious vehicle for a dual land-and-sea adventure — rolling through the city's landmark streets before dramatically plunging into the harbour for a captain's-eye view of the waterfront. Theatrical, joyful, and genuinely unique.
What to expect
The tour departs from the Halifax waterfront and winds past the Citadel, the Grand Parade, and historic Old Town before the vehicle makes its famous aquatic entry into the harbour. Once afloat, the perspective of the city from the water — with its Victorian wharves, the MacDonald Bridge, and Dartmouth across the narrows — is completely different from anything you'd see on land. Live, enthusiastic commentary keeps the energy high throughout. The 55-minute experience is brisk, brilliantly paced, and suitable for all ages.
