LUNENBURG TRAVEL GUIDE | 18 Things to do in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada

[@samuelandaudrey]

BUOY = BOY or BU-OI or BOO-EE? Let's settle this debate! 🤪💦

[@tbz1551]

Boo-ee. East Coast pronunciation 👍🏻

[@leonardskim]

Boo-ee. From New Joisee.

[@feelingpaulie3943]

BOY..........as in buoyancy or buoyant, which is where it comes from........jeez!

[@blankchannel1881]

BU-OI

[@feelingpaulie3943]

@@blankchannel1881 so, pronounced "bu-oi-ant" for "buoyant" or "buoyancy"? Just interested to check the different dialects....

[@searlaitfinley7417]

as someone who grew up in lunenburg, to anyone planing a trip there, make sure you visit J3 pizza when in town. J3 has some of the best pizza you'll ever have! thank you so much for letting me see my town again!

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thanks for the tips! Would love to try the pizza next time.

[@rackdacks3852]

j3 pizza sucks it’s crust has 0 taste

[@rackdacks3852]

just get the mikes quick way pizza

Lunenburg was a picturesque, interesting city. A fun and educational time. Love to go back.

[@dominiquecosmatos1951]

As a Lunenburg resident, thank you for visiting and sharing our town’s beautiful sights, locations and activities. One recommendation for anyone who wishes to learn more about Lunenburg’s history is to visit the Knaut-Rhuland House Museum on Pelham Street. A museum interpreter can give you a personalized guided tour while walking through one of Lunenburg’s oldest houses (the museum).

[@cathysandercock8675]

We were there in August and you really captured the charm of the historic community.😊

[@stacyk9571]

I actually have the great pleasure of living in this beautiful town. My children were fortunate to attend the 1895 built Lunenburg Academy, the ‘castle on the hill’. (Now our town library and a Musical Arts Academy). 🥰🇨🇦✨

[@samuelandaudrey]

That is amazing to hear Stacy! What a beautiful town. Maybe the nicest we've seen in all of Canada.

[@angelamagruder5911]

Changes of food variety is always a good way to enjoy any outing!!!!!

[@samuelandaudrey]

I totally agree! Thanks!

[@cece354]

Thank you for the history of the schooner on our dime! I am sure the service in the ice cream place at Lunenburg is 100% better than the gelato place by the Trevi fountain in Rome!

[@stumaclean111]

Thanks for the very kind words. I love hearing from ‘out of Towners,’ ,who find our small part of the world and take it in. Hope you enjoyed! Please come back!

You guys are doing a really excellent job Vlogging your Nova Scotia tour. I'll definitely check out some of your other places when I get the time. One thing you didn't mention is that the entire town of Lunenburg is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site. My last last meal in Lunenburg was a pizza at the Salt Shaker Deli as well--so yummy. Sometimes the boat tours offer a puffin tour to Pearl Island. It's about an hour out, half hour or so there and hour back but it is worth it for the birds. Lots Atlantic Puffins, Razorbills, Kittiwakes etc. The puffins are so colorful, like Lunenburg. Looking forward to more of your Vlogs.

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thank you very much! Great point about it being a UNESCO Heritage town. Oh, going on a puffin tour sounds incredible. I've always wanted to see them up close. Next up is Mahone Bay!

[@karmesindryade]

Oh thanks again for another beautiful and inspiring video. Nova Scotia now is really on my top list of travel destinations. Funny thing: One of my grand-uncles (is this the correct term? brother of my grandfather) was Professor of Metallurgical Engineering at the Nova Scotia Technical College of Halifax after he and his wife emigrated from Latvia to Germany at the start of WW2 and then from Germany to Canada in the 50s. Later in the 70s they came back to Germany. As a child, Halifax (or Canada in general) to me was always "somewhere over the rainbow" 😀

[@samuelandaudrey]

Wow! That is such a cool story Enzio. Small world! Thanks for sharing that.

[@paulwheelan1106]

Lovely town,lovely people, great food and...Two of the best Tour Guides you could ask for...Keep it going guys xxxx

Hi Mark, we stayed at the Mariner King Inn (in their renovated rooms in the cranberry building). It was a nice place and we would recommend it. Places in Lunenburg do book up fast, so it's a good idea to book well in advance.

Great video and a great place to visit! Def on my canadian "to visit" list. Would you suggest fly or drive from Toronto? And where did you self isolate for 14 days?

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thanks Peter! Both are good options as you could make a stop in Quebec or New Brunswick along the way if you drive but a short flight would get you there faster. We had done a quarantine in New Brunswick prior to the trip.

[@hubbards]

There is another Memorial on the other side of the Bay close to Bayswater Beach. That is where you will find the Passenger list and where all the Remains are buried. Peggy’s Cove was just a Media Center. The actual work was being done on the other side . I was out on the water that night in a Fishing boat with Search and Rescue personal on board. It was a traumatic night for everybody involved.
