"Kattuk Expeditions provides stellar outdoor experiences in Nova Scotia. They are fun and entertaining and get you exploring Halifax, public parks and preservation areas in new ways. You must try the geo-cache activity for your group. It's always tons of fun and a great team building exercise!" - Claudia, Downeast Destination Management
"If you want a unique event for your staff, family, or group of friends, you've gotta try Kattuk. Fred is the most fun & personable guide you'll ever meet. He'll teach you everything he knows about the landscape you're hiking, the secluded islands you're kayaking around, or the city where he's hosting a geo-cache hunt. I've been on several of their tours & events over the years, and always have an amazing time." Daniela, regular customer
