Well another tour season has come to an end for 2024… and what a Season ! Up about 20% over 2023. 🤩

So many highlights and wonderful people from all over the world 🌎. The top tour is still Peggy’s Cove and a growing interest In our day trips to Prince Edward Island (8 trips up from 3 last year). Additionally, our multi day tours continues to be a growing market that we will be expanding next year … the most searched destination according to our analytics is ‘Oak Island’ to which we are looking to address the increasing demand to visit the area … stay tuned !!

We are actively taking bookings for 2025 … so if you considering booking don’t delay I do get booked early as do most reputable operators.

More photos and interesting stats to come … thank you again to all my guests & friends near and far that have supported my company ❤️

There were a few others we saw including Rick, Gary and Craig. Last day on the island as things are wrapping up filming for the season. We had a great meal before a nice coastal drive back to Halifax with a stop at the Fairviewlawn Cemetery to discuss the Halifax Connection to the 🚢

Down East Tours

Welcome to DOWN EAST TOURS ! We offer Private Guiding Services to allow you to explore and experience the Best of Nova Scotia and the Maritimes. We will show you all the ‘must see’ sights and show many of the Hidden Gems that others miss.

Mel Zilkowsky is the main guide and has been offering Private Guided Tours since 2013. He has guided many guests from all over the world and loves meeting new people.

The majority of our tours are 5 – 6 hours to our most popular sites such as Peggy’s Cove, Lunenburg, Annapolis Valley and Fisherman’s Cove and in 2017 we have added a tour to Oak Island ! (History Channel – The Curse of Oak Island)
