5.00Our guide Sam really knows his history of Quebec (and the Province)! Delivered with humor, his historical narrative about the buildings and streets of Quebec City Old Town was fun and engaging. I learned so much about the City’s history, culture, local life, and language as we walked and stopped periodically during the 2-hour tour. Sam was chock full of facts and details, and because of his tour I know I appreciate Quebec so much more than the average tourist.

5.00This walking tour is comprehensive as it provides both a walk around Old Quebec to see both new and old sites AND you get to learn about the history of Canada/Quebec/Old Quebec in the process! For those from other countries, the history will be likely new for you. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable of so much of the history.
