Good tour even with the rain
Luellen_L, October 2026
Good tour! Joan was a excellent guide and gave lots of current and historical info on PEI. We learned about lobster traps and fishing, and oyster farming. An hour at the Anne of the Green Gables gave us plenty of time to tour the house and explore the grounds. Our weather was raining ans blustery, and Joan and driver Harold made the best of it for us. Enjoyed getting to see the countryside. Definitely recommend!
