The Halifax Hop On Hop Off Bus is an easy, flexible way to get your bearings and see the city’s highlights at your own pace. Riding an old-school vintage double-decker, you can dip in and out of Halifax’s best-known sights throughout the day, spending longer where you fancy and simply hopping back on when you’re ready to carry on.

The route links together the waterfront and downtown with many of the city’s headline attractions, so it works brilliantly whether you’re short on time or just want a relaxed overview before exploring on foot. As you travel, the guides bring Halifax to life with stories from its maritime past, the Halifax Explosion, wartime history and the events that shaped the city you see today. It’s a fun way to add context as you go, rather than just ticking off photo stops.

A popular stop for many visitors is Fairview Lawn Cemetery, where over 100 victims of the Titanic tragedy are laid to rest, and it’s a powerful, thought-provoking addition to a day of sightseeing. With your ticket valid for the full day, you can treat the bus as both transport and a moving commentary, letting you explore Halifax in a way that feels easy, efficient and genuinely enjoyable.
