This is a great way to learn some history behind this iconic building! It was really lovely to get a behind the scenes look at some of the Chateau!

Thomas was an excellent tour guide. He mixed humor with a lot of interesting historical information. I learned so much just within the first 10 minutes of the tour.

Great tour and tour guide learning the history of the hotel and some of Quebec. Wonderful to see some of the lovely rooms of the Chateau Frontenac.

Really nice review of the history of the area and of the hotel. It would have been nice to see one guest room though

Your was ok. Didn’t really see much! Too much standing in one place listening to guide talk a very long time-much about nothing!!!

Excellent historical review of building and events that occurred. Especially liked coverages around World War 2.

Our tour guide Thomas was great. Knowledgeable & funny. It was our first stop when we go into Quebec & we enjoyed learning the history of the hotel.

Learned a lot on the history of the Chateau de Frontenac. Very interesting era but still relevant today. I would recommend this to anybody visiting Quebec.

Fun, informative. Brilliant guide. Highly recommend. It’s only an hour but it takes you through the back rooms.

It’s mostly a trip to the falls and time at the falls. Still, quite good. I think they should extend it by about 30 minutes to see more areas of the city.
