We had a wonderful two-hour walking tour of Upper and Lower Québec with HQ Services Touristiques (Our Tour Leader was Etienne). Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the city's history come alive. The tour was well organized and covered many of the main landmarks. The pace was comfortable, and the explanations were clear and engaging. We learned a lot about Québec City's culture and heritage. It was an enjoyable experience and excellent value. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Québec City.

The early start makes a big difference. The quiet streets and cooler temps are wonderful just as Phil and his knowledgeable hospitality.
It was a wonderful experience! We had no issue finding parking or the location. Our guide Anais Morel is incredible! She is so professional, warm, and inviting! Highly recommend her! She asked if there was something special we wanted to see or learn about.
