Hey guys, Samuel and Audrey here, and today we’re going to be showing you around Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada! This summer we had the chance to visit Halifax in partnership with Tourism Nova Scotia, and over the course of our visit, we went on some fun and unusual tours and also hit up some of the city’s must-visit attractions.
In this video we’ll tour the recently opened George’s Island and venture deep into the tunnels, we’ll go on a spooky after-hours ghost tour of the citadel, we’ll sail aboard Tall Ship Silva as we sample local Nova Scotia wines, we’ll explore the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic where we’ll learn more about the Titanic and the Halifax Explosion, we’ll ride a colourful amphibious vessel known as the Harbour Hopper, and a whole lot more.
The following is our Halifax travel guide, so join us as we share some of the best things to do in Halifax on your visit. Let’s go explore, shall we?!

That is amazing to hear Steph!
Nice I was on George's Island 5or 6 years ago but that was for a Stanfields concert it was awesome.I got to go back to check out the tunnels.

Halifax is a good place for relaxing, outdoor sports, cuisine, museum,......Hope I can migrate to here in future.
It really is!
I have always wanted to visit George’s island! So cool!
Cool to hear! Hope you can soon!
Halifax has many Libraries that are free hangouts unlike malls, tours & restaurants.
It's why we make & promote video about them.
We just posted about a library in Bedford.
Up next is a Clayton park library & things to do over there!

23:24-23:30 "Cowdanian maple". It looks like Samuel enjoyed some of the most AUTHENTIC Canadian ice cream he could ever find!
Hahaha...thanks Brady! That is definitely the case.
I love the 25 things to do in the different cities you go to Love this one on Halifax thank you Sam and Audrey

I will spend a few days in Halifax later this Summer, this is very useful and interesting. Thank you! 😃
Hi Guys,
I absolutely love these vlogs .Such beautiful days and just sharing the history of yesterday sure is a beautiful place .
Thank you very much Michael! It is one of our favourite new cities in Canada. Has what you'd want in a city but with more of a laidback town vibe. And the food is amazing!
Very interested and informative videos! ❣️Thanks for showing! Well done 👍
Another amazing video that place is beautiful thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching
Beautiful & historic city. It seems so nice to live in that place. Thank you for this amazing video. And you both make funny spooky impressions 😊.. Looking forward to your next video!
Thank you! 😃It is indeed a very liveable city Joe! So many young workers from other parts of Canada enjoying the lifestyle in Halifax.
Hey guys.i am a new subscriber and am enjoying your videos...watching from Cape Breton
Thanks Mary! Ah, that is so cool to hear. We had a great time in Cape Breton in 2019. We love traveling in Nova Scotia.
What a beautiful city, thanks for this video
Glad you enjoyed it! THank you!
Videography and commentary 👌
Thanks Waseq!
Great video! Thanks for sharing!
The face of dismay Audrey makes when she admits she will share her lobster roll was priceless.....great video the two of you and good luck with everything.
We should have ordered two! That was the best lobster roll of the whole trip!!😆
muy lindos sus videos los seguimos con mi marido siempre somos de pilar saludos para la familia grande tu papá lorena y ramón y nuestros hijos le deseamos lo mejor sigan asi besos
Very well done video. :) My first job out of high school was tour guiding at the Citadel. I miss living there
Thank you very much! We loved the Citadel.
Well done...brilliant ! You have done this excellent city, great justice ...one of Canada's best cities !
Thank you so much 😀We had such a great visit Dennis.
Lovely 😊 little intro to Halifax Nova Scotia ❤️
I’ve been living here since 2011.. and I even learned a couple new things 👍
Thank you very much Duane! Congrats on almost 10 years! Any places you think we missed?
You guys have done a great job showcasing Halifax!
Thank you very much! We had such an incredible time visiting Halifax :)
Thank you for this video, I really enjoyed watching it!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!
In St. Pauls, the church downtown, you can actually see the shattered window with the man's silhouette from outside!
Oh, thanks for letting us know Amelie! Had no idea.
Oh my goddess！！！！I’ve been there to study English for one year💕💕
That is so cool to hear. How was your experience?
Great video. You covered all the highlights for anyone who hasn't been here before.
A word about St Paul's church- when you went in the front door, if you'd looked up, you would have seen the debris. It's basically just a small piece of wood sticking out of the wall. The shattered window can be viewed from outside on Argyle street. Although, you will hear a lot of fanciful tales about the window, all they've done is sandwich the silhouette between two panes of glass to preserve it.
Thank you very much Sandra! Ah, we just missed it. Thanks for explaining that.
I love never-ending vlogs. Thank you for the great content.
Thanks for watching! We're glad you're enjoying the videos.
You guys do such a good job showing us everything!!! I also love the food you show us
Thank you very much Rose! We had such a great time in Halifax.
Loved your video. I am a born and raised Haligonian. I am very impressed with how well you both detailed the city. Digby scallops are the best and we have some of the best beer and wine here. Thank you and hope you both can come back and see the Cabot trail and or Peggys Cove.
Thank you very much Susan! We just loved our time in Nova Scotia. We actually got to do both of your great suggestions. If you're interested in more of our Nova Scotia content we've created a playlist here: ruclips.net/video/lqAl__AcsfU/видео.html
Beautiful and very informative video! Great job guys!
Thank you very much John and Cara!
Great video! And good to see our favourite travel vloggers back in action!
Thank you very much Chris!
Awesome tour of Halifax , love it .
Glad you enjoyed it! We'll have more from Nova Scotia coming out soon.
awesome travel tube site! thanks for sharing
Great video !!! Nice Halifax city, thanks for posting.
Glad you enjoyed it!
That's was good--of course Covid-19 has everything a little more subdued than normal but what can you do. I would say the biggest miss on your list is the Halifax Waterfront at night. At night the families move out and the partiers move in. Not rowdy though--just fun. Especially good if something like the TD Jazz fest is going on or if you're lucky enough to catch a Tall Ships in town. The Buskers event in late summer is also excellent. If you're travelling with a child you will definitely want to check out the Discovery Center. It is a children's science center on the waterfront near the Seaport Farmer's Market--if you don't have a kid try to borrow one so you can go! Cycling the rail trails is another great activity.
Thank you very much for those tips! We'd love to come back again someday.
Halifax is such a fantastic ＆ vibrant city !
Thank you! Couldn't agree more. We just loved visiting. Plans to return?
@@samuelandaudrey yes, but probably next year after pandemic 😅
Beautiful place. Wish to visit sooner or later.
Thank you! Hope you can soon!
My Great-Grandparents were the George's Island lighthouse operators in the late 1800's. Lucky I got to visit it last year.
That is amazing to hear! What a family history.
this is one of the best videos i've seen of you guys
It's virtual, but it was a very nice trip with you guys! A lobster roll makes me hungry, Thank you for sharing your story!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!
Can’t wait to go back to Halifax, I lived there in the 90s, still feel part of the community with all the people I stay in touch with.
Nothing like maritime hospitality, I’ll be flying out in August.
Great restaurant on Dartmouth side is John‘s lunch out of this world, Peggy’s Cove of course, my daughter wants to go see Netflix show Locke and key house in Lunenburg, Of course we’re going to go to the Oak Island museum, and visit Martinique beach.
Love from Ontario
Great video!! well done! Can't wait till we can travel again! and ofcourse make some travel video's
Thank you very much Hessel!
Beautiful video. The seafood you showed was wonderful. Maybe someday I'll get there.
Thank you for this video. We're planning a trip to Halifax next summer and this is very helpful. I enjoy all your videos
That's great to hear, Jorge! We hope this video will give you a few ideas. Summer is a great time to visit. 😊

Viví un año escolar en Halifax hace 20 años. Hermosa su gente! Sencillos y amables. Viniendo desde la caótica Buenos Aires, Halifax was like heaven to me! Gracias chicos por el paseo.
Muchas gracias Nora!

gracias mariela
Canada is so beautiful country 🥰 so much nice places to visit and try different kinds of food 🥰
Thank you very much LeAny! We feel really fortunate to be able to visit more places this year.
Thanks
Thanks for very informative video. Can you post something about Chocolate and Banook and like lakes, though?
I am laughing at Audrey missing the noon cannon shot! You are so funny! Love this video. Thinking of traveling from Vancouver Island to N.S. for the first time.
Haha, would you believe we went back with our dads the following summer and I missed the cannon shot again! The noise startled me so much I stopped recording. Also, BC to NS would be an epic road trip!
I want to go to Halifax! Sam and Audrey's video made me crave for trip to Halifax which I didn't know and care much about before.
Thank you! It is kind of a hidden gem. So many people focus on Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver but Halifax has its own unique vibe.
Thanks🎉
Yayyy my home ♡♡ welcome to Halifax!!
Thanks Sheena! We just loved visiting.
Wow that tunnel looks awesome I wish I could go there
Thanks Reena! One of our fav tours! Highly recommend it.
Excellent video - thanks!
Thank you very much Brenda!
I'm glad you enjoyed our city! Have you done a Cape Breton video? Louisburg is a great fortress to visit. Also, Sherbrooke village on the mainland is a great place to go!
Thanks Bonnie! We did do a Cape Breton video the summer before.
Awesome video, awesome place, food, visuals, and places. Thank you guys for another fantastic adventure. Canada is reay amazing. Debrian tradicir estos videos en español, son increíbles. See yoy in the next video.
Thanks so much!
This is one of my favourite videos of yours and my first video of your channel.
Keep travelling wish you the best for your journey!
Hola Sam and Audrey, no podían faltar este fin de semana, estamos almorzando y viéndolos a ustedes, hermoso el video con Sebastián Daniel, se los quiere mucho un saludo enorme desde Junín 🇦🇷👍❤
Muchas gracias Gabi!

Thanks! Great to hear and hope you can visit your friend soon.
@Jay M thanks Karen!

I used to live here. Love to Halifax. Peaceful community.
Cool video guys🌞🌞🧡! I love Nova Scotia too:)
Thank you very much Bajlandia! That is great to hear. We have many more videos from NOva SCotia coming out soon.
Awesome vid very informative
Glad you think so!
cool.
Thanks Roger!
Hi you two, I found your channel by chance, just at the right time. In September we're going to start in Halifax our 3 week camping tour via New Brunswick, Qubec to Totonto.
Thank you for the many beautiful impressions and tips, we will be glad to follow. Best regards from god old Germany
Good production!
СУПЕР!!! дуже класно))
:)
2 thumbs up guys .
As a resident of the city I think You did it justice
DML
Audrey, you are so cute!. Samuel, great videos, thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much! 😊
NS is laid back. The Halifax area is the only city, but you can drive there in 2-3 hours from anywhere in NS.
Outside of Halifax you'll find endless coastal scenery, and, inland, endless forests and friendly folks.
There are a lot of small/medium towns around the province, though.
There are also a lot of rural communities of maybe 100 people.
BTW Audrey reminds me of Danielle Haim.
Look her up. lol
Thanks! Couldn't agree with you more. Love the slogan of Canada's Ocean Playground. You're never far from the ocean or lakes. I've never seen so many oceanfront and lakefront properties. What a great province to live.
You can drive anywhere in N.S. from Hali in 2-3 hrs? Not legally lol
It’s just over 3 hrs to southern tip from Halifax and over 5 hrs to northern tip of Cape Breton. Just to clarify 😉
And interesting tidbit in the same vein is that no matter where you are in the province you are never more than 70km from the ocean.
@@tbz1551 I figured 3 hours or so to Cape Breton, but yes, it'd take a couple hours to cross CB.
It's about 45 kms from me to the Bay of Fundy and 65 to the Atlantic.
I could write a book on my experiences with tailgaters.
....and how I make them regret it.
Awesome tour stay safe!
Thanks! You too!
Great guide for Atlantic Canada's big smoke. Smothered by seafood, scenic seaside sites, swilling and sailing spots, Halifax has got it all. I didn't know there is an island there with fortifications named for moi, hehe :-)
Couldn't have said it better myself! Well, you're going to have to go visit again soon to check out your island!
Very beautiful Halifax all its landscapes. Greetings from Argentina
Thanks Matias! Reminds us a bit of Mar Del Plata.
Greetings from Halifax, stay safe
Hey, a fan of your channel who also happens to be living in Halifax; it would be so great to meet you guys!!
Thank you! Hope we can revisit again soon.
I’ve travelled to hundreds of cities and Halifax will always be one of my favourite cities!!! And yes! That raspberry beer is amazing! Lol 🍻
That is great to hear! Just loved Halifax.
Grew up on the dark side. Missing home, but living in BC is a close second.
Hope you can revisit again soon Paul. Where do you live in BC?
We are planning a trip to NS, thanks for the great list of activities! 👍
That is fantastic to hear! All of the best!
Congrats, regards from México i'm your follower
THank you so much! We really want to visit México soon!
Hey you guys. I love your videos!! Greetings from Argentina... CHE! 😜
Thanks so much Nahuel!
