  • New Blog Post: The Best Things to do in Amherst, Nova Scotia. 🚗 Explore Amherst and Cumberland County and discover some amazing things to do in the area. We recently spent a couple of days in the Amherst area and found some cool stuff. 💙 https://roguetrippers.com/the-best-things-to-do-in-amherst-nova-scotia/ 💚 . @amherst_ns @rogue_trippers
  • It's time to Gogh. We just experienced the fantastic @immersivevangogh exhibit. 🌃 This is a digital art show that encircles the audience in the beautiful Van Gogh paintings. Digital imagery of moving paintings are projected onto the walls and floors of a warehouse in downtown Toronto. All of your favourite Van Gogh paintings and some you might not recognize, come to life in this spectacular show of art and classical music. This makes for a very unique and exciting experience. 🌻 #Vincentvangogh #immersivevangogh #Roguetrippers
  • History, Scandal, murder, and intrigue. As we continue our plan to play tourist in our own back yard, we recently took a walking tour of Guelph with @jaywalkingguelph . Jay takes you to various spots around downtown Guelph where the stories actually took place. In our tour "The Unfortunate man: the story of William Harvey 1889", Jay recounts the tale of murder that shocked the residents of Guelph (and the nation). . Having lived in Guelph for approximately 20 years, we walked past these buildings many times, and never knew the tales they held within their walls. In addition to learning some of the history we hadn't known before, we also explored parts of the courthouse grounds that we have never seen before. Even when you live somewhere for a long time, there is always something new to discover right in your own back yard. . After the tour was over, we enjoyed a light meal of delicious tacos and margaritas on the patio of @lareina_519 A little rain wasn't going to stop us from enjoying ourselves. 🍹 #VisitGuelph #Guelphtourism #Roguetrippers
  • A couple of months ago we went for a little day trip through small-town Ontario. We were on our way to meet some friends for some social distancing socializing. On our way, we stopped at a very small-town bakery for some yummy buttertarts. . This bakery was on the 4th corner of the main (only?) Intersection in town...and the other 3 corners looked very familiar. It was as if we had been there before.... Or at least seen it somewhere... 📺 Such an unexpected find.... 🌹 #schittscreek #roseapothecary #Roguetrippers #buttertartquest
  • Welcome to Cape Breton Island. "Canada's Favourite Island." 💚 While we have been to Cape Breton Island many times, we are always drawn back. With so much beautiful scenery, gorgeous land and seascapes, fun activities, and down-home charm, how can we not want to keep coming back? 💙 Each time we always find new things to do, great sites to explore, unique places to stay at, and fantastic food to eat that gives us ample reasons to return. Time and time again. 💚 This time, our Nova Scotia pals Stacy & Jason took a little road trip up & around the cape. Read all about their mini-road trip through @visitcapebretonisland, on our blog...

  • Take a journey back in time to Ancient Egypt. ⚱ The Museum of Natural History in Halifax is now once again open to visitors, and they have a fantastic exhibit on display now: "Egyptian Mummies & Eternal Life." 📜 Recently, our friend Stacy was invited to visit the museum and explore the exhibit when they re-opened, and learn more about the history of the Ancient Egyptians. ⚱ If you are in #NovaScotia, (or the #Atlanticbubble), you, too, can explore the wonders of Ancient Egypt. @mnhnovascotia .
