Journey to the very heart of Cape Breton Island and enjoy the breathtaking scenery of the famous Bras d'Or Lakes.
Stop at the geographic center of Cape Breton Island, where you'll visit the Nova Scotia Highland Village — a 50-acre living history museum overlooking the Bras d'Or Lakes. Take a chronological journey through 180 years of Cape Breton's Scottish architecture, hosted by costumed guides well versed in conversational Gaelic and local history.
Your next destination is the village of Baddeck, where the Inverary Resort awaits to host a delicious group lunch. Baddeck was home to Alexander Graham Bell — inventor of the telephone and Cape Breton's most famous resident.
Visit the Alexander Graham Bell National Historic Site to learn about Alexander Graham Bell's early life and dive into the innovative mind of this world-famous inventor.
While in Baddeck, you may also enjoy some free time to explore the village independently.
