This was an amazing experience! Quebec City is full of beautiful historic architecture. Our tour guide had a professor level expertise of the city and presented with a wonderful combination of charm, humor, and knowledge. Do not miss this tour while you are here!

Great orientation to historic area of Quebec City. So glad we did this. Do this first and then you know where you want to spend more of your trip.

It was a wonderful way to explore and learn about the city and its history. It made the remaining days more interesting as you could draw on your tour for insights into what you were seeing.

Our tour guide, Etienne, was a local and gave us a great history of Quebec City, in context of the greater region. He was personable and a wealth of knowledge. Also, it was a very cold day, and he was conscientious in giving us warm-up breaks along the way.

Good history lesson loved the sights. Did this on the first day we were in the city and it gave us great ideas for the other things we wanted to do the rest of our time.

We had an amazing tour with Sam! Learned so much about the history of beautiful Quebec and got to see so many spots we would not have otherwise known about. 10/10 highly recommend! Our kids (11, 8 and 8) loved it as well. Sam made it very family friendly and accessible to all ages.

Really interesting tour with a great guide in freezing temperatures! Our guide explained the history of Quebec and also talked to us about college life in the city, which kept everyone interested (there were four college kids on the tour). She was also very aware of the temperature and tried to take us inside whenever possible. I highly recommend this company.

We did it in late December. The roads were icy and slippery but our guide took us to parts were we could safely walk and enjoy the city. Unfortunately the funicular was closed but we got tickets to do it on a later date. The guide was knowledgeable and we all enjoyed the 2 hours.

The walking tour was excellent. Our guide was superb! Knowledgeable, kind, and she shared more information about the history, architecture, culture, and interesting tidbits only a Quebecois would know. Perfect day, perfect walk, highly recommend.
