Fun fact by fact, bite by bite, we fell in love! - This tour exceeded our expectations! Our tour guide, Lynn, told us Old Quebec City was her playground and her knowledge of history, culture, food, and Quebec events impressed us throughout the experience.
With her in the lead, we fell in love with Old Quebec, fact by fact, and bite by bite.
We met awesome chefs, tasted delightful creations, and made lots of memories.
The tour also introduced us to great shops and restaurants and this convinced us to extend our trip so we could spend another day in the city. See you, again, Quebec!

Exceeded all Expectations! - Delightful evening led by a personable and engaging tour guide. Our 4 stops were at completely different restaurants with delicious and unique food offerings. Best part was getting to know fellow travelers and sharing the experience. Do this early in your visit to Quebec City..or anytime! One of the best tours my husband and I have ever taken; so enjoyable.

Simply divine - Lynn, a historian, led this food tour which is no ordinary one, but a “gourmet” experience with dishes and restaurants curated and vetted by the discerning guides. A thoroughly enjoyable experience with insider knowledge of Quebec history, local perception, peppered with numerous anecdotes that made the heirloom tomatoes and divine foamy mozzarella cheese infused with CO2 come to life. From beginning to end, it was a culinary wonder, and the historical nuggets fed your traveler’s curiosity. Unexpectedly high standard offering single-handedly makes us want to return again & again to this fabulous city.

Excellent food and history tour of the old town - Amazing restaurants with generous amounts of food. We started with a tomato salad with mozzarella cheese foam, then a french onion soup, prawns flambé with rice and carrots and asparagus at Conti , and at our last stop guinea fowl and a dessert. Lovely wine or beer pairings. Our guide, Lynn, was excellent and provided information about Quebec's history as well as the food. The tour is quite expensive but the quality of the food is exceptional. Probably the best food tour we have ever done.
