We met Luis, our guide, at the tour office where he explained the tour to us then we set off. We saw a lot of back areas of the city with important historical significance. It was very interesting. We also saw the usual points of interest. Luis is so knowledgeable and pleasant. It was a really enjoyable tour.

Guide Luis was great- very informative, energetic and friendly. It was VERY cold during our tour (wind chill of -10), but he made every effort to keep us warm, moving and still made it fun. We always take tours of new cities we visit and this one didn’t disappoint.

Small group walking tour that was exceptional. The pace was just right and our guide was knowledgeable. Even though it was very cold we enjoyed it and would highly recommend it.

Beautiful walk around Old Quebec City, with gorgeous views of the UpperTown, Lower Town, and a short but fun ride on the funicular. Highly recommend!

Our guide, Anais, was very engaging and provided a great introduction and history of Old Quebec City, describing the important buildings and cultural sites. It was a super cold day, so she included indoor spots a couple times, for us to warm up. She also pointed out other places to visit on your own. Worthwhile tour.

This is an absolutely must do while in Quebec City. Sam, was our tour guide, he was so excited to teach us about this beautiful place. He was detailed and could answer each question with detail and accuracy. We were impressed by his knowledge and all around good nature. His love for what he does shows and we learned so much. Thank you!! The tour was great. It is such a fascinating city.
