Enjoyed our tour - We thoroughly enjoyed the tour. The tastings at the stops were yummy and time was allowed if you wanted to make any purchases. Jeff was our tour guide and he did a great job telling everyone about the island and surrounding areas as we traveled to and from the island. He is also very entertaining

Tasting and drinking in the island of Orleans, Quebec - Jeff , our tour/driver guide was terrific. He gave us an insight of the tour and the beginning of and took us to the beautiful island of Orleans Everywhere he took us was a great place and we were very well welcomed We bought several products from the region and tasted all of them. The best place to me was the winery, we were given 8 glasses of wine per couple and we enjoy being in the middle of the apple trees drinking their wines. The chocolate place was also fantastic We have to admit that Jeff was the one who made us enjoy everything at its fullest, his knowledge of the place and history is great He even bought strawberries for us and he had cold water for free Thanks Jeff for making our tour unique

Peter did a wonderful job... - Peter did a wonderful job narrating. All English speakers on our tour (US and Australia), and we immediately connected. The island is beautiful, and the hosts at all the stops were very friendly. Had four of my grandchildren with me, and the hosts were generous with samples for them.

Wine, Chocolate, & History - My husband & I took this tour while visiting Quebec City. Pickup & drop off were at the same location which was helpful. The tour was approximately 3 hours long. Jeff was our guide & did a fantastic job providing us with a history of the island & introducing us to the owners & staff at each stop. We personally enjoyed the caramel sea salt ice cream, the tastings of wine, & the variety of cider samples. Also those fresh strawberries!! I’m happy we brought some goodies home! Thank you Jeff for a great day! You really have a solid relationship with the vendors & owners of these locations. Definitely recommend!

Girls Trip! - We had a blast exploring the Island of Orleans today. Jean Francois (Jeff) was a wonderful tour guide! He presented the history of the area in an entertaining way, answered all of our questions, and kept things fun and light. We loved every place that we visited and it was clear the Jeff has nurtured genuine friendships with each of the vendors. The tour was a real highlight on our girls weekend!!

Fantastic day tour - So we went on the food and wine tasting 3.5 hours tour and Jeff was our guide. This tour surpassed all my expectations, it was so light breezy and quick. Tasted a lot of different wines and Ciders. All the 4 stops were fascinating. Last but not the least, Jeff was simply terrific. He was the reason the tour turned out to be surpassing expectations, he was funny, knowledgeable and so loving towards my 4 year old. It was my mom’s bday and he made it extra special. Thanks Jeff -Sanketh & Samira
