We had a fabulous week with a group from the UK.
The Celtic Colours Festival did not disappoint. Exploring the Cabot Trail during peak Fall colours was a life long dream for our lovely visitors.

We found a few hidden gems, stayed in some lovely accommodations, enjoyed the famous Cape Breton hospitality, hiked amazing trails, and enjoyed local feasts!

Thank yous' go out to
Cape Breton Backcountry Adventures and Celtic Colours International Festival

Finding those local spots for a taste of Nova Scotia — fresh, locally caught lobster tucked into a buttery roll and farm-fresh strawberry shortcake made with ripe berries and fluffy whipped cream prepared by your guides.

Enjoying lobster rolls and strawberry shortcake while looking over at the iconic Peggy's Cove lighthouse and rugged granite coastline, with a salt-kissed breeze and seabirds in the background. That's what travelling with Great Earth Expeditions is like!

Checking out one of Cape Breton's many waterfalls — a small slice of the island’s rugged beauty.

Some of the falls here are just short, family-friendly hikes off the road, perfect for a quick stop, a picnic, or some photos, like this one at Egypt Falls.

Soaking up the Cabot Trail’s fall palette — this year’s peak colours are expected the week of October 10th.

Whether we’re hiking, cruising the coastal roads, or tasting local fare, Nova Scotia’s autumn charm is everywhere.

We’ll be guiding a small group through the Highlands that week on a custom tour, featuring Celtic Colours Festival performances, waterfall hikes, shoreline strolls, and plenty of time to savour all that Cape Breton offers. There’s a real advantage to a local-led travel company: we take you to some of our favourite places and immerse you in authentic local culture.

With autumn arriving, we on Canada's East Coast eagerly anticipate the brilliant autumn colours, and Cape Breton Island remains one of our favourite places to take them in.

Alongside the foliage, the hurricanes and storms that sweep the Atlantic produce some of the most dramatic shoreline action.

FOOD.

There is always good food, good company and great scenery.

Expect delicious bites, warm company, and breathtaking views. Homemade lobster rolls with seasonal local salads overlooking Peggy’s Cove lighthouse, gourmet sandwiches made from regional ingredients with the UNESCO village of Lunenburg in sight, or a stop at our guides’ favourite spot for the freshest fish and chips — we include all meals and snacks on your trip, served against unbeatable scenery.

Paddle, Picnic, Peggy's Cove.

Paddle, picnic, Peggy's Cove.

We spent a wonderful day out with a group from Ontario.

The water lay like a mirror and the seals kept coming over to check us out. They're curious animals who love investigating local kayakers, but they stayed at a respectful distance, which made spotting them into a playful challenge. As we watched one, another would pop up behind us. We would hear the deep breaths behind us and —lo and behold, another seal!
