5.00Paul was very knowlegable and cordial. He was right about the ferry. I had not considered that as an option on our excursions. He recommended several restaurants. The ones we visited were excellent.

5.00Excellent tour to introduce us to the history of Quebec City and to Quebec. Sam was an excellent guide, using pictures as well as the area itself. He brought to life the past! The tour covered the highlights of upper and lower town, as well as pointing out current places of interest, restaurants, goats milk ice cream which was very tasty (we tried it after the tour). Highly recommend this two and a half hour walking adventure. Lots of walking but so interesting! Well worth it!

5.00This was a very good walking tour that provided highlights of the old city of Quebec. This tour went from the riverside to the citygates and back, both in the upper and lower city. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and was able to answer every question we asked. Our tour guide provided us with history and culture and was clearly proud of her city and province. Our tour did not have time to enter any of the sites, but our guide told us how to get into many of the historic sites and where to eat and how the city had changed and was continuing to change. This is a great introduction to the city of Quebec.

5.00Our guide Philip was passionate , engaging, and full of energy. He made the tour both fascinating and insightful, bringing the history, culture, and politics of Old Quebec to life through his excellent storytelling. We learned so much and remained captivated throughout the experience. Philip was also very attentive to the group’s comfort, frequently stopping in shaded areas and pacing the tour well. Beyond the tour itself, he shared excellent recommendations for restaurants and highlighted places worth exploring. Thank you for a memorable experience.
