Getting There
By plane

Most travelers flying into Nova Scotia enter through the Halifax Stanfield International Airport, located 35 kilometers (22 miles) from downtown Halifax. The airport is serviced by the major Canadian and American airlines, as well as many smaller regional airlines.

Queens County is located on the southwestern coast of Nova Scotia, approximately 1 1/2 hours drive from Halifax or Yarmouth along Highway 103. The most effective means of touring the county is by car, as there is little in the way of public transit.
