PEI without Green Gables

[jasminelee]

What are the top things to see on PEI, if there is no interest in Green Gables? TIA

[Ashland]

We easily just enjoyed walking around the port town.

Far from Charlottetown but quirky are the Bottle Houses and the Canadian Potato Museum on PEI.

My husband & I had an amazing time this past September at the Island Falconry.  Peter is a very interesting fellow with great stories to tell as he introduces some of his birds to you in a classroom setting, where you can choose to have them perch on your arm.  Then he takes you outside to fly his Harris Hawk and you also can lure the bird in with a meat treat in your glove and have the hawk swoop in to land on your arm/hand and take the morsel.  Lots of opportunity to take photos and ask questions.  https://www.experiencepei.ca/tour/fun-with-falcons

Ditto this.  Fun with Falcons was an excursion offered through HAL when we did it, although I believe it is possible to do independently.  It was one of the best excursions we’ve ever done!

That looks really cool!  I'll have to remember Island Falconry when we do a cruise that goes to PEI. 

 

I understand the OP completely.  I read the first Anne of Green Gables book as a child and didn't connect with her as a character so I also have no interest in anything Green Gable related on PEI.

You could rent a car and see some of the beautiful pastoral scenery, visit the north shore with its beaches and cliffs and then walk around Charlottetown.

We will be on HAL and would like to go to the Island Falconry tour but don't want to do the ship's excursion to it. Is there any transportation that would take us from the ship to Island Falconry?
