Recommend this tour, had a great time - Our guide Carolina was amazing, the bus was clean and driver was safe. We had a nice time in Quebec City, we did not rake the river tour opting for more free time in the city. Carolina conducted the tour in 3 languages, very impressive.

Great time in Quebec - We had a great experience. We were picked up on time and they already assigned us seats in the bus . Our guide was helpful and knowledgeable and spoke 3 languages . When we arrived in Old Quebec , we were met with another local professional tour guide who lead the group in the walking tour ! It was a great experience for us !

Viewing the falls and... - Viewing the falls and walking the streets of Old Quebec. It was very enjoyable and relaxing. The town square was also very enjoyable. The enticers at the town square were also fun to watch. It was a long day but worth it.

Impeccable - Everything worked perfectly and was as organized as advertised. We were picked up on time in front of our hotel and brought back again. William was an excellent travel companion, he was gladly listened to! The guided tour in Quebec itself also had a very good tour guide. From start to finish, we had a good impression of the organization and were able to experience a well thought-out day trip to Quebec.

Well organised excursion to charming old Quebec City. - Long day from Montreal but worthwhile if you’re short on time. Falls were thundering and views there are quite breathtaking. The one hour break there was about right. The one hour walking tour of old Quebec City with local guide Richard was very good. And there was plenty to see and do during the free afternoon hours. We departed at 5:40pm for the non stop return drive to Montreal, almost 3 hours long, but that was all right considering the long daylight hours. Overall, the excursion was very well organised with hotel shuttle pick up at 6:45am and drop off at 8:30pm. Would recommend this excursion.

Great for first-time travelers to Quebec - Long day of touring but is well worth it! We did not purchase the additional river cruise and so ended up on our own for about 4 hours and enjoyed walking around beautiful Old Quebec, dining and shopping. Our tour guide, William, was excellent. He spoke at least 4 languages! William was entertaining, efficient, organized and truly made our tour so enjoyable! The pick up/drop off service to our hotel was a plus.

Good experience - The trip was well organized. Overall good experience. We got picked up and taken to the bus. The bus journey is around 6 hours both ways so takes most of the time. Otherwise you can walk and do way more if traveling to a specific place.
