How to plan for a mountain vacation in Nova Scotia?

The first step to planning your mountain vacation to Nova Scotia is to decide what dates you want to go. In the winter months, fresh snowfall means you could hit the slopes at ski resorts near Nova Scotia, while summer invites you to enjoy scenic hikes. It's a good idea to choose the type of accommodation you'd prefer, too. On Expedia, you'll encounter a vast array of options in Nova Scotia, from famous chain hotels to charming cabins. The vacation planning page has more tips for organizing your Nova Scotia mountain vacation.


What amenities should I look for when booking a mountain resort in Nova Scotia?

When booking accommodation for your mountain vacation to Nova Scotia, check to see if where you're staying has heating. Nova Scotia's mountain air means it can feel fresh at night. If you're craving a special stay, look to see if the hotel offers mountain view rooms, or has a pool or hot tub to unwind in the evenings. Expedia's handy search filters include all these amenities and more, making it a breeze to book the right place to stay on your Nova Scotia vacation package.


Why should I choose a package for my mountain vacation in Nova Scotia?

Choosing a package for your Nova Scotia vacation often works out cheaper thanks to the savings you get for bundling up your flights and hotel. You'll typically find it costs more when booking these separately. On Expedia, the green label even shows you how much you're saving. Packages also tend to be more flexible, meaning it's more likely you can cancel for free in case your 2025 plans change. You can usually secure your package by paying a small upfront deposit, whereas booking flights separately requires full payment.


What does a Nova Scotia package typically include?

Return flight tickets, your accommodation, and applicable taxes are typically included when you book a mountain vacation package to Nova Scotia . Hotels may include breakfast and Wi-Fi, while the airfare may include checked luggage. Certain resorts may even include ski passes. As each Nova Scotia vacation package is different, be sure to double-check what's included before you confirm. If you want a hassle-free trip, consider booking Nova Scotia all-inclusive vacation packages as these include all meals.
