Highland Tours Cape Breton

Motorcoach Cabot Trail day trips out of Sydney, designed for cruise-ship passengers and visitors who want the highlights without the rental car. A long day, but you cover the loop with a guide and a driver who know the road.

What to expect

• Air-conditioned motorcoach with reclining seats
• A full-day loop with major Cabot Trail stops
• Lunch at a pre-arranged location, usually included
• Driver-guide running commentary the whole way

Don't miss

• The photo stop at Pleasant Bay or French Mountain lookoff
• A quick walk on the Skyline Trail (time-permitting)
• The view from the Cape Smokey side on the way back

Good to know

• Long day — 9 to 12 hours typical
• Limited time at each stop; this is a highlights tour
• Wheelchair-accessible coaches available with notice
• Cruise-passenger pickups easy from the Sydney terminal

Pair it with

• A short Sydney waterfront walk before pickup
• Dinner at Flavor on the Water after the tour
• A morning at the Miners' Museum the next day
