I think our driver’s name was Surge? Or sounded something like that. Anyways he was great and very friendly. The tour guide was also very knowledgeable, kind, helpful. Took time to get to know us and where we were from. Gave us a good historical points throughout and then we had time to walk around on our own for about 2.5 hrs. Would recommend!

I don't remember much about the details of the trip but I do remember feeling lost, disconnected, uninterested, and just...bored.

Very nice experience, the city is beautiful, however, the time to walk in the city ends up being short due to the distances being long.
Definitely worth doing!...

It was great! We were conveniently picked up, and left on time. The driver was really good at explaining everything clearly while giving us history along the way. After arriving in Quebec City, our guide took over informing us about Quebec’s history. We went to the falls, then came back for free time. I was so impressed how everything was smoothly condensed into a day.

I think this trip is worth it, but beware. If you are getting hotel pick up, you have to confirm that 24 hours in advance. And your ticket doesn’t tell you that. I saw it in the app at midnight and we were supposed to be picked up at 8:00. Thankfully I messaged someone and they wrote back saying we were to be in the lobby at 7:30! Our driver and tour guide were great. Gonna get Covid after this ride. People sneezing, coughing, hacking and watching their movies LOUDLY with no headphones. Bring your headphones. And, follow the drivers advice. Be on time. 99.9 percent of us were on time, but one lady missed the bus. We had to turn around and go back and get her. One hour delay! Anyway…. Lovely day.
wonderful

The tour is really good, the driver is very helpful and friendly. The guide also very informative and friendly. They manage time quite efficiently and on time. It might be a bit of a shot time spending at the waterfall, but that’s reasonable and we got a lots of time to look around in the old quebec area. It’s a wonderful day in quebec with this tour.
Bus trip started 30...

Bus trip started 30 minutes late waiting on one couple. The rest stop they use for halfway point had DISGUSTING bathrooms, with clogged toilets and literally flooded floor. The tour also wastes time with an initial stop in old town for 30 minutes, then takes you to the falls for 30 minutes then drops you off again in old town. Feels like we lost an hour just unloading & loading bus for the short visits. Seems like a better use of time to do the falls visit first then just one stop in old town.
