What travelers are saying
Great tour and perfect for our introduction to Québec City! Francis was warm and welcoming and so knowledgeable about the city's history and culture. He shared great information throughout the tour and offered recommendations for our time there. Wear good walking shoes, as this tour does cover a lot of terrain and many hills and stairs. Highly recommend!
The tour guy, very knowledgeable and discussed very interesting topics and issues
Clients said the toe was great.
A very beautiful city enhanced by the energetic and informative guide. Highly recommended.
Great overview of the Old Town! What a wonderful, knowledgeable and humorous guide! Perhaps a bit more information about going inside the tourist information center and getting a sticker would be a good thing for meeting instructions. Otherwise, a good way to spend a few hours getting a feel for the area, along with history, architecture, and even restaurant suggestions. Definitely recommend.
Very good, loved walking through Old Québec.
Great job by piere
What a great tour. Lots of history lots of great info and a beautiful city- regret that it was snowing so badly that we didn’t take any photos- also perhaps mention in your information that in snow street parking is not available and that covered parking has a low height max. We had or truck and it didn’t fit so we had to park down by the water. It worked out but we almost missed our tour looking for parking for over a half hour. Would absolutely do again.
