Halifax Vacation Packages
Halifax possesses the community spirit of a little port town and the liveliness of a harborside city. Atlantic Canada’s largest city and the capital of Nova Scotia is home to over 400,000 people, and millions of visitors pass through its port each year. The atmosphere of local culture burns bright with Haligonians’ pride in their heritage, landscape and achievements.
The city is tucked into one of the largest natural harbors in the world. The port played a role in the British Empire, two World Wars and the aftermath of the Titanic disaster. Learn about the history of the port at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic.
Stroll along the Halifax Harborwalk, a boardwalk that spans the harbor side of downtown across two miles (three kilometers). Public artworks, historical monuments and harbor views guide the way.
Catch a ferry to see the harbor from the water. Ferries leave from the Halifax Ferry Terminal along the Harborwalk. The two ferry routes to Dartmouth and Woodside are integrated with the affordable metro bus system, making them cheap and easy to use. Enjoy a clear panoramic outlook of the Halifax Harbor. Dine on fresh Atlantic seafood at one of the many restaurants and cafes along the waterfront.
Within ten minutes walking distance from the harbor, you can find yourself in the center of downtown Halifax. Explore the historic Grand Parade, with Halifax City Hall on the north side and St Paul’s Anglican Church and Province House in the south. The compact downtown area is easy to explore on foot.
Head further inland and you’ll come across Halifax’s leafy green sanctuary. Citadel Hill, the Museum of Natural History and Public Gardens Park await you in this quiet, tree-lined neighborhood.
Halifax Stanfield International Airport is located 22 miles (35 kilometers) from downtown Halifax, and is serviced by regular flights from all over the world. Arrive in August to maximize your outdoor adventures by the sea. Atlantic Canadian winters are relatively mild but you’ll need to rug up for the colder months.
Accommodation in Halifax
As can be expected from the state capital of Nova Scotia, Halifax features a broad selection of lodgings. You're sure to find the perfect home away from home amid the 78 Halifax hotel options on Expedia's lodgings page.
If you and your travel companions are keen on finding a place at the more upmarket end of the spectrum, check out the Halifax Marriott Harbourfront Hotel, located at 1919 Upper Water St, or the Residence Inn by Marriott Halifax Downtown, at 1599 Grafton St. If you find that those spots don't suit your requirements, the Cambridge Suites Hotel or the Inn on the Lake, an Ascend Hotel Collection Member may offer all the amenities you need.
If you're here on a stopover and only have limited time for a quick tour of Halifax's star attractions, be sure to check out the Halifax Marriott Harbourfront Hotel or the Residence Inn by Marriott Halifax Downtown, which are both located near Halifax Citadel.
