As you step aboard our meticulously maintained carriage, pulled by one of our majestic horses, you’ll be transported back in time to an era of charm and elegance.
Your expert guide will regale you with tales of Lunenburg’s storied past as you wind through its narrow streets and admire its well-preserved architecture. From the colorful facades of the waterfront buildings to the “Castle on the Hill”, every turn reveals a new chapter in Lunenburg’s history.
Whether you’re a local seeking a fresh perspective on your hometown or a visitor eager to discover the secrets of Lunenburg, our carriage tour promises an unforgettable journey through time. Join us for a leisurely ride through the heart of Lunenburg’s old town, where history comes alive with every clip-clop of hooves.
