Informative and fun - the guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. Experienced a lot of the city within a short period of time.
Informative and delightful guide who knows the history of Quebec City well. If doing this tour in the winter as we did, make sure your feet are warm as this is 100% an outdoor tour where you’re standing on snow and ice quite a bit. It was a great way to get a feel for where things are to start our stay there.
Guide was great. Tour covered lots of ground and helped us know where we wanted to spend the rest of our time in Quebec City.
the guide was entertaining and knowledgeable. the tour felt christmasy because of the decorations and it happened to be snowing but only less than ½ of the tour was about Christmas traditions--the rest was about the history of Quebec--still interesting. the pace could have been faster because the day was very cold.
That it is not about Christmas or Christmas decorations! The tour guide was excellent and gave a well informed tour but I thought it would be about seeing Christmas related things.
A delightful tour! So informative and engaging. Great guide. Well paced. A must for first timers and frequent visitors like us.
A fabulous guide (Christian) lead us around Old Quebec with a sense of humour & an obvious love of the history of the city. He easily slipped in & out of his character ( a farmer from the 1600’s) as he shared his knowledge. He made each member of the group feel special as he remembered where we were from & made references during the tour. Loved it!
Excellent tour guide, made the tour very interesting. Excellent overall history of old Quebec! Loved the hot chocolate especially on such a cold day!
Local guide was informative and entertaining; we were able to learn about the history of OQC and Christmas along the way.
