Experience Cape Breton your way on a fully private, customizable shore excursion from Sydney, Nova Scotia.

Sydney is the primary cruise gateway to Cape Breton Island, making it an ideal starting point for discovering the region's dramatic coastal scenery, historic landmarks, and rich Scottish and Gaelic heritage. With a private vehicle and flexible itinerary, you can choose the attractions you would most like to experience rather than following a fixed sightseeing route.

Select from some of the island's most celebrated destinations, including scenic sections of the Cabot Trail, the Alexander Graham Bell National Historic Site in Baddeck, the Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic Site, the Highland Village Museum, or other attractions that match your interests. Your driver will help organize the day around the available port time, with most itineraries allowing guests to comfortably visit approximately two major attractions. Travel in the comfort and privacy of your own vehicle without the fixed schedule or larger groups of a traditional sightseeing excursion. Transportation to and from the Sydney cruise port, your private driver or chauffeur, and entrance or admission fees for the selected attractions are included in the tour price, making it easy to focus on enjoying Cape Breton. Best of all, the experience is planned with your cruise departure in mind. Whether you want to discover Cape Breton's history, explore its Celtic culture, admire breathtaking scenery, or combine several experiences in one memorable day, this flexible private excursion gives you the freedom to create a day that fits your interests.
