The 1 day trip was what I needed. As a first time visitor I'll recommend this company. Mickey was a fantastic trilingual tour guide. He was very helpful with advises, the activity was well structured. I will book again in the future!
Angela, our Tour guide, and Simon, our driver, were exceptional! Angela is a blessing on this trip. Full of knowledge and multilingual in Mandarin, Spanish, French, English, and probably other languages. She seemed to be everywhere on the tour and it was always available with any questions. Absolutely fantastic pictures had a blast.
Our guide Yang was professional and was on time. He guided the group well, had a good sense of humor.
This was a really great experience. Our tour guide was hilarious and very helpful and very engaged. The bus driver did an excellent job of getting us where we needed to go on time and safely. The excursion was a perfect balance between the structured tour and our free time. Quebec city was wonderful. The falls were interesting. The tour was very well organized. Highly recommend! Shout out to Yung! Best guide ever!
William was a great tour leader. Although it was in English and French, there would be phrases in Spanish and he was open to questions in Spanish. Very cool
Very well organized! Buses were good too. Tour guide Jerry was really amazing and kept us entertained throughout the tour. He was always there with us. Nicely mapped. Driver also was very skilled. We had a great time without any hitch.
Great tour with Jerry! He kept it light and funny and was always there to answer questions. Thank you!
It was a very affordable and easy tour to take. It was exactly as advertised. Any extra costs were optional and very affordable. I’m so glad I made this day trip.
The tour was great and well organized. Coach bus was very comfortable. The driver and guide were super. What to know: the seats are assigned at the time of booking, however there is no way to know where is your booking, so be ready to sit in the back. I took one star off for this reason. Some people are sensitive to be at the end of the bus, and need to have a choice.
Great excusrsion from Montreal to Quebec! The water fall is beautiful and the city of Quebec is more beautiful! Jerry, our tour guide took great care our group. They stop halfway to Quebec for a quick breakfast and restroom break. More than enough time to enjoy the fall and take a ton of pictures. We enjoyed spending time in Quebec City, did the river cruise which was nice and provided a different perspective of the water fall from the river. Great value for the money!!!!
