I'm Melanie MacLeod, and travel has been my passion for as long as I can remember. Growing up I travelled with my family and that passion has carried through my life. I love to travel and sell travel. Making travel dreams come true is a daily event. I love the fact that my clientele know they can rely on me and that I will go the extra mile. I am going into my 30th year in this business and I still love my job, and the fact that I now work for myself. At TPI, we'll take you there !
Daily tours to see puffins, other seabirds, seals & bald eagles. Educational, uniquely narrated 2 3/4 hour tours. Rain or shine in our covered boat, with most windows removable for glass-free photography. Puffins guaranteed until mid to late August.
We are the longest-running boat tour in Cape Breton, operated since 1972 by the same family – now with our third generation of Captains! We have had over 100,000 satisfied customers, including the Princess of Japan.
It is an ecologically sensitive tour that will be enjoyed by young and old alike. Our boat, the "Puffin Express", new in 2010, is wide, roomy and very stable, while also easily maneuverable so we can get as close as possible to the Islands and the birds. You will have easy walk-on access to her with only five steps down. We have optimized our seating plan for easiest interaction with the captain and crew.
