Living History in Quebec City

5.00We have just completed our walking tour of Old Quebec City with Denis and found it to be highly informative. There was so much history shared as well as seen as we walked the streets. We learned so much more than we could have anticipated and it was the attention to the 'details of their city' that was fascinating. This is a great way to begin your stay in Quebec City and to be 'wowed' by the charm of the buildings, shops and restaurants. Highly Recommend.
Awesome tour!

5.00Took a tour with Anais of Old Quebec. She was fantastic. Some walking. Took the funicular up to upper part of Old Town. Gave us lots of history. We were there for St Patrick’s Day parade which was great but once she knew that she provided all kinds of Irish history for Quebec. Recommended a great restaurant Bistro Hortus. She was great saw a lot of the old town and what we didn’t she told us the places to go.

5.00It was very informative and interesting. We got to learn all about Quebec’s history. Our guide was very kind and was extremely helpful. It is a lot more about Quebec’s relationship with other countries than interactive which was fine. We got to go down small paths that only a local would know. All and all it was great.
