Great walking tour of Quebec (City).

5.00My wife and I took an excellent walking tour in Quebec (City) today. Our guide, Charles T, was exceptional. He was dressed in amazing period clothing, speaking in a period accent and full of knowledge of Quebec’s history, architecture, culture, food and other things. He cleverly and thoughtfully guided us on the Taste of Quebec Walking Tour through Old Quebec. We stopped in three high-end restaurants and tasted samplings of traditional Quebecois dishes. The tour was fascinating, informative and fun. He even provided us with a 45-minute bonus tour that included some excellent gelato (make sure you get the maple flavour gelato). If you can only do one tour while in Quebec, this has to be the one.

4.00Food we tried was fabulous and interesting, from local chefs. Great to learn some history of Quebec and guide's knowledge was good. My only complaint is that most food tours I've done have 70-90% focus on food with 10-30% focus on history. This tour seemed abt 20-30% focused on food...we were often rushed out of the restaurants.
Best surprise of our trip!

5.00Our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. There wasn’t a question he couldn’t answer. He knew the restaurants intimately and shared their specialties with expertise. The time flew and we easily rated it as the best experience of our weekend in QC!

5.00Our guide was great - very animated and knowledgeable. Just a reminder - this is a walking tour and you do need to be ready to walk alot - may not be the best choice should you be tired or should it be very hot or rainy outside. Also, should it be your first time to Quebec City, it may be best to do a general bus tour to get the main highlights and then decide which walking tour may be of most interest.
