Halifax History with Food & Spirits

• Four Hours

This tour generally takes a little longer as we drive around Halifax for some historical facts, but then park ( minimum 3 stops)  to have some seafood and depending on the person; local cider, wine or craft beer.

I try and use older buildings to keep the theme going, but the schedule changes depending on what day of the week you book (some restaurants close on Monday or a Tuesday) and also if parking is an issue near our destination
