Delightful tour in old Quebec

We walked into the TripAdvisor office and then booked online. Our tour guide was Alaine B, not only was she extremely knowledgeable about the history of the city answering any questions we could have, She also knew the city well enough to direct us around active construction. There was a number of school tours happening at the same time and she did a very good job of orating to us so that we could all hear properly. Despite the cold weather, she kept everyone engaged and warm. As a person who spend a lot of time in Quebec city, she had a lot of personal anecdotes to share as well as an interesting tidbit about her personal history. I will recommend this to my Friends and family.

A culturally grounding experience

We did our walking tour with Mark, and he was great. He provided historical background, and provided perspective of how it's impacted Quebec culture to-date. He was very engaging and tried to address everyone's questions.

Fantastic Walking Tour of Old Quebec City

We thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour with Louise, she was fantastic!! She was very informative and shared her knowledge of the history, architecture and love for Quebec City. We saw so much, as well as, learnt so much through Louise’s passion and humour that kept us wanting to learn more about the city.

Quebec city walking tour

Lots of walking and seeing major sites along with history. Well worth the price. The guide was very knowledgeable. Took a good 2.5 hrs- only downside was we did not go into any buildings. However, gave us excellent feel for the city and history.
