The Money Pit

We had a private tour of the island. Charles Barkhouse is super knowledgeable and was very helpful in explaining everything. What a great experience of Canadian history!

Great show, really enjoy the research that highlights the deep history of Nova Scotia!The efforts of all the people past and present.Thanks again,for all those involved.Stay safe!Update,as I watched the television show ,searchers opening up old flood tunnels, I get nervous seeing them digging without safety harnesses.Yes ,old tunnels can collapse remember the curse.Be careful! Stay safe.Thanks again great research and show.

Very well done and documented. Sensitive material also handled admirably. They seem to always give credit where credit is due. And I look forward to after they find the gold,go on to their next project and allow the 1st Nation to catch up on their history!

I love the show although I’m surprised they have made a wash bed and have a pump from the ocean to wash the mud of as it come out instead of relying on the metal detector . They have probably been missing s lot of items

Did a tour around Oak Island, learned a lot about the mystery of the hidden treasure!

I realised after watching a whole series that I was far too young to watch this show at 49 years old.It is snails pace repeats and more repeats and I just want to run onto the set with a shovel and dig down.Gary Drayton has found the most and made metal detecting less nerdy.

They offer a great tour. It took approx. 2.5 hours. Charles Barkhouse hosted the tour. He is a brilliant and charming man. At the end of the tour we got to meet Dan Blankenship. That was an honour. Tip: join Friends of Oak Island to get first dibs on tour tickets when they go on sale. They usually sell out within a few hours. The tour walk is 3/4 km up and the same back. Bring water, sunscreen and bug spray.

Been watching since day one. While I feel certain there is something extraordinary that is yet to be found, it is aggravating the way the show is presented. It’s soap opera style is an insult to the average viewer. It might not be so bad if they didn’t retell the whole story every episode. Maybe five minutes of new information for each hour of programming...really? Is that all the team learns in a weeks time? If something were found, it would be ten years after the movie and books came out that the program would get around to showing it.Also, it is curious that none of the finds are shown without multiple edits. Why not show one trinket that is unearthed and identified without any editing to prove that these finds aren’t planted?One last thing, according to google maps, they put up the coffer dam in Sheerdam Cove, not Smith’s Cove. Smith’s Cove is where the swamp is located. Just saying.....

This is the spot where amateur archaeologists as far back as the 18th century have been uncovering weird anomalous artifacts associated with the European sect known as the Knights Templars, which are most associated now today with the Freemasons.Upon exile from the mainland of Europe, involving primarily France, Germany, Great Britain, Belgium and Austria, following the Friday the 13th Massacre in the year 1307. The Knights Templars went into hiding for fear of execution by the ruler of France, King Philip IV, who had conspired the idea that instead of paying back the Knights Templars the money he borrowed for his kingdom he, alongside other powerful rulers in the area who also owed money to the Knights Templars for rebuilding the entire area that was once ravaged and destroyed by the medieval 1000 year War known as the Crusades.Inside King Philip IV devious plan he concocted and set his plan out to be that rather then pay back the enormous amounts of money he had borrowed that preferably it seemed a more suitable plan of action to launch an assault upon their whole fraternal order, as well as expel them from existence due to what he had ruled black as Blasphemous Acts" upon his GOD

Tour was very well done and organized. They went in depth about the history of the island and did not sell you on the show. Our tour did go past the 2 hour window, but we didn’t mind. Seeing the island was worth it, and if you can get tickets, you should.
