About Moonlight Travel

Your passport to adventure under the shimmering night sky

Moonlight Travel started in the Halifax area with a simple idea: travel should feel magical, and it shouldn’t cost a fortune. We live on Canada’s East Coast, where the nights are dark, the stars are bright and the next adventure is often just a short drive or a well-timed flight away.

This site is where we share what we learn: where to fly from Halifax for less, the Atlantic Canada road trips that deserve a spot on your calendar, the travel essentials that save money and stress, and the bucket-list wonders worth saving up for.

What you’ll find here

  • Cheap getaways from Halifax. Practical guides to the routes, seasons and booking habits that help you find better fares from Halifax Stanfield (YHZ).
  • Atlantic Canada road trips. Itineraries for Nova Scotia, PEI, New Brunswick and Newfoundland and Labrador, with the stops, hikes and tips that make them unforgettable.
  • Travel essentials for Canadians. Plain-English advice on eSIMs, travel insurance, car rentals and tours, written with Canadian travellers in mind.
  • Bucket-list wonders. Northern lights, dark-sky escapes and natural wonders to inspire your next big trip.

How we write our guides

We want you to be able to trust every page on this site, so we follow a few simple rules:

  1. No invented prices. Travel prices change constantly. Instead of quoting numbers that will be wrong tomorrow, we show you where to look and encourage you to check current prices.
  2. Facts from the source. Where we can, we check details with official sources such as airports, airlines, Parks Canada and tourism boards, and we say when information was last checked.
  3. Honest recommendations. Some links on this site are affiliate links, which help keep our guides free. We only recommend products and services we’d use ourselves, and we always disclose it. Read our affiliate disclosure for details.
