Nova Scotia<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"Nova

When to go:<\/strong> September – October<\/p>\n

How to get there: <\/strong>Fly into Halifax International Airport<\/a>. There are shuttles from the airport to many hotels. Since the province is so large and taxis can be a bit pricey ($50 from the airport into Halifax, this is one place where it might make sense to rent a \u201cgreen\u201d car for navigating between the regions. The bright side is that once you reach whatever destination you have in mind, you won\u2019t be needing much of the car, since there are so many places to walk and bike and hike.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Prince

When to go:<\/strong> July – August<\/p>\n

How to get there:<\/strong> Taxis and several tour buses are available to take you from the Charlottetown Airport<\/a> to your desired destination on the island. A number of companies offer shuttle services by van to and from Charlottetown (and selected other Island locations) and Halifax. These companies operate from various locations and on different schedules; contact each for details about their specific services. Once on the island, a car may be helpful, but there are plenty of opportunities for biking, hiking, and other means of getting around.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Things

When to go:<\/strong> June-September<\/p>\n

How to get there:<\/strong> New Brunswick has three major airports, in Fredericton<\/a>, Moncton and Saint John<\/a>. Once in the sprawling territory, the easiest way to get around is by renting a car (see our green car guide<\/a>) and driving between towns. Most of the towns themselves offer many things to do such as hiking, biking, canoeing, and otherwise getting around car-free.<\/em><\/p>\n

Newfoundland<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"Newfoundland

When to go:<\/strong> End of June<\/p>\n

How to get there: <\/strong>Newfoundland and Labrador is easily accessible from New York City by daily air service from Newark to St. John\u2019s with Continental Airlines.
