We currently have 2 vintage cars. One fits 4 comfortably, while the other is most comfortable with 3, though 4 can fit if you don’t mind being a bit snug!
We also work with other tour operators to increase capacity when needed. 7-8 guests can ride in the vintage cars, and we can have as many as 18+ when collaborating with other providers.
If you have a large group, do reach out!

As of 2023, we are now able to offer pick-up and drop-off services to Halifax as well as other communities such as Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, and Chester.
We use a standard modern day vehicle to act as the shuttle between the city and wine country. This allows us to get you from A-B much faster, and more economically.
At this time, we can offer pick-up for 2-10 guests maximum. Larger groups may be accommodated, please inquire for availability. Please note that there is an additional charge for Halifax and other outside area pickups.

Our vintage car is a sedan style vehicle that can fit up to 4 guests — 3 in the back and 1 in the front.
A second vehicle is available, though because it is slighly more narrow, 3 guests is a comfy fit, 2 in the back, 1 in the front. 4 can fit if you don’t mind squeezing in!
