Destaques

Explore Halifax's churches, gardens, memorials and historic graveyards on a self-guided walk of about 5–5.5 km and 90–150 minutes. Follow 23 mapped stops covering Tripvia's named stories, from Holy Cross Cemetery and the Public Gardens to Citadel Hill, the Old Town Clock and the Old Burying Ground. GPS-triggered audio plays as you reach each point, and a live route map shows your position. Download the tour before setting out for offline use, then start, pause and resume at your own pace. The optional location-based trivia adds a playful way to explore. This is primarily an outdoor, exterior-view experience with no in-person guide. Garden and cemetery gates have opening hours; museum, church and Citadel interiors require separate access or admission.

About Halifax

Halifax, the capital of Nova Scotia, is an Atlantic harbour city of seafaring history, a hilltop citadel and a long waterfront boardwalk.

Halifax was founded in 1749 as a British naval base, and the harbour is still its heart. Citadel Hill, topped by a star-shaped fort, looks over downtown and the water, and a boardwalk of piers, galleries and cafés follows the waterfront. The Maritime Museum of the Atlantic covers shipwrecks, the Titanic, whose recovered victims were brought to Halifax, and the great explosion of 1917.
