We were in Nova Scotia a few years ago, and the roads were very poorly marked. Got royally lost several times. When we went to see Peggy's Cove, got lost in Halifax. So I stopped at the first Quick Mart I came to, to ask directions. Clerk there said that this happens often, then she handed me a printed copy on a sheet on how to get to Peggy's Cove from the store. I would recommend that once you get into Nova Scotia you stop at tourist info center and get a good local map. Also do not trust GPS in the Atlantic Providences, as you may ended up on some one lane dirt road. This was told to us by Campground owner in PEI, where we stayed at Highland Glen campground. It is in the Anne of Green Gables area and would highly recommend it. They even have free passes to Green Gables.
Also you pay to get off PEI, not on. Since the ferry charges by the foot, and the bridge is a flat rate, my be cheaper to take ferry on and bridge off. I think that I saved about $25 or $30 that way, but I had a trailer
