Excellent Way to See the Cabot Trail and Baddeck! - Vishnu did a terrific job introducing us to the Cabot Trail and Baddeck. His information was helpful and engaging, and he provided us with invaluable context. He was able to answer all our questions. Can't imagine a better experience in this beautiful area. (And we stopped at a fabulous chocolate shop!)

Wonderful fall day! - Kulwinder singh (Jack) was our tour guide for the day and he was truly amazing. I felt like I hired a friend for the day. He was so nice and accommodating. He was professional yet personable. Kulwinder singh provided us with an amazing experience. Every shop, store and restaurant he took us to was excellent. He also gave us tips for Restaurant’s and place to visit for after the tour or if we got the chance to come back to Sydney. I would definitely request Kulwinder singh!…. The fall colors were beautiful driving to Cabot Trail and Baddeck💛

An Unforgettable Cabot Trail and Baddeck Experience! - We had an absolutely wonderful tour from Sydney, Nova Scotia, to the breathtaking Cabot Trail and charming village of Baddeck. Our guides, Jack and Arrie, were fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about making the day special for everyone. The van was spotless and comfortable, and they kindly provided complimentary water to keep us refreshed along the way. They even waited patiently while we enjoyed a delicious lobster meal surrounded by stunning scenery. It was truly the best day spent with my love, and Jack and Arrie made it even more memorable with their expertise and warm hospitality. Thank you for such an incredible experience—highly recommended to anyone visiting Cape Breton!

Cabot Trail - Our Cabot Trail tour was wonderful. Cabot Trail is a beautiful area. We hit it at a great time with lots of fall colors. The best part of the tour was our driver and guide Kulwinter. He told about the areas history and places to see. He was kind and attentive to everyone's needs. He was a real delight.

Best Guide Ever - This is among the best tours we've ever been on. The pickup was convenient and on time. The guide, Kulwinder, was knowledgeable, friendly, informative, articulate, and considerate. He asked several times if we were comfortable and if we could hear him. His car was immaculate. He gave us as much time as we wanted at each stop and still had us back to the ship before it launched.

Trip to fiords - Tour operator was great and very knowledgeable. The bus ride was long, but the scenery at the fiords was worth it.

Attempted Bait and Switch - We booked a tour with a maximum of 6 people only to have the tour operator (RED LEAF TOURS) try to put us on a bus with 40 other people. Tried explaining to us that he had a few broken down vehicles. After several minutes of discussion he located a driver for us and another family of three. The driver very nice and provided some information about the area. I’m not sure he was aware of itinerary but we did have a nice small group tour in the end.

Terrible experience - Book this tour at your own risk. We signed up for a small group tour that was to start at 10am. Waited until 11am for the rest of our “small group” and was placed on a large tour bus with 40-50 people from 3 other cruise ships with 3 different departure times. Was told that it was due to 3 ships tendering passengers unexpectedly. Coincidentally he had booked a tour bus and driver for the day. He had no sense of time at each stop and we were actually making arrangements halfway through the tour on how he was going to get us to our next port since we weren’t going to make the last tender as repeatedly promised. Should have trusted my gut and walked away from this guy. Absolute terrible and nearly ruined our entire cruise. Book at your own risk.
