It was fine. I wish it had been longer and more things explained in greater detail. For example the churches.

Great way to get an easy overview of Old Quebec City.

With just one afternoon in Quebec on our way to Nova Scotia, this was a great last minute way to learn about and see the most interesting features of the old city. The walk was easy/moderate (moderate only because of hilly streets and lengthy stairs!) and the views were great. It was easy to pause the tour if you wanted to spend more time in an area.

Quebec City history at your own pace

The audio tour was great for our family to get in some history while we explored Quebec City. We were able to pause the tour when we wanted to shop and then pick it back up when we were ready for the next stop.
