History and True Crime Tour - My mom and I went on this tour together and had a wonderful time. We learned alot of history and true crime on the tour. The tour was mostly down hill so it was ok for my mom to walk around. The tour ended near a bus stop and we were able to hop on to get back to our hotel.

Fun! - This tour was so much fun! We heard about different crimes that had been committed in QC in the past and punishments the people received. We saw the old jail and where people were executed. Some of the facts I don’t think I would have found out about any other way without the tour.

Great experience and fun guide - Creepy fun and educational. It was like taking a history lesson from Beetlejuice as the teacher. Be prepared for the hills and uneven cobblestones.

Gruesome fun! - Even with the rain we had a great time! Our guide Valerie was hilarious and really engaging with our 11 year old. Love the dark humor, gruesome history, and seeing Quebec lit up at night!

Disappointing walk: 1h30 walk. 75% of the locations unrelated to shared crime stories. - Sitting around listening would have had the same impact. Very friendly and captivating host, but her material left something to be desired, and the story was a little stretched. We were ready to go halfway.

This was kind of dumb. Too gruesome and freezing cold. - The tour was a lot of walking. There wasn't any tour of the jail cells like I thought. The explanation of torture was very gruesome.
