Green Gables Heritage Place in Cavendish is approximately 40–45 minutes from Charlottetown by taxi, via Route 2 and Route 13. Charlottetown Taxi can take you directly with a waiting driver while you explore, or include Green Gables as one stop on a broader North Shore island tour that also covers Cavendish Beach, PEI National Park, and North Rustico Fishing Village.

The most requested stops on a PEI island tour are: Green Gables Heritage Place, Cavendish Beach, PEI National Park, Brackley Beach, North Rustico Fishing Village, Point Prim Lighthouse, Confederation Bridge, Dalvay-by-the-Sea, Covehead Lighthouse, The Dunes Studio Gallery & Café, Basin Head Provincial Park (Singing Sands), and East Point Lighthouse. Your driver can suggest the best combination for your available time.

Absolutely — this is one of our most popular bookings. We pick you up directly at the Port Charlottetown pier, take you on a custom island tour built around your available shore time (typically 4–8 hours), and return you to the ship before departure. The North Shore loop (Green Gables, Cavendish, National Park) fits perfectly in a 3–4 hour shore window. Pre-book before your ship docks for guaranteed availability.

Tour duration depends entirely on how many stops you want and how long you spend at each. A focused North Shore loop (Green Gables, Cavendish Beach, PEI National Park) typically takes 3–4 hours from Charlottetown. A full-day island tour covering North Shore and East PEI takes 6–8 hours. A Charlottetown city tour alone can be done in 1.5–2 hours. We work around your schedule.
