The tour was excellent. Tour guide Sam provided great information about the history, politics and culture of Quebec. We toured on a snowy winter day and they even had warm snow boots available for guests without appropriate footwear.

From start to finish, this was a fabulous tour. The place we met was a really nice building and we were able to come in and regroup before heading out on the tour. Our tour guide, Sam, was extremely personable, knowledgeable, and fun! He did an excellent job showing us around the city, explaining the history and fun facts, and answering all our questions. We would definitely book another tour with this company!

The group was limited to 10 people which is a plus. Luis was a good guide on this two hour journey on the history of Quebec. We went to places I don't think I would have thought to enter or had the ability to enter. We took this tour on our first full day which was great as we got a good lay of the land and places we went back to later. Highly recommend. I just wish that a short tour of the Fairmont Hotel was included, but a separate tour was required for that activity.

Best tour we’ve had in Canada. Our guide was amazing. He is local so he knew about everything! Learned about history and the town. I highly recommend this tour.

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.
