Not for picky eaters, but a great tour if you are a foodie - Had a great experience on this tour (Saturday evening in early September). I never caught the guide's real name as they take on historical character personas (with costume) during the tours, but he was very good. We went to 3 high end restaurants and a gelato stand in the Old Town. The portions were not large, we actually ended up needing to go to a restaurant after the tour, because we were still hungry....which is not like other food tours we have done that gave too much food. Loved the history stories and sights in between the restaurants - we learned a lot. The food is creative, so probably not enjoyable for kids or for picky eaters. There was an alcohol and a mocktail option at the 3 restaurants. Note that there is a lot of time spent outdoors and quite a bit of walking, so make sure to dress appropriately. And, this is Quebec City, there are hills, so wear comfortable shoes.

Food, Fun and Facts! - Our group of 5 Senior Ladies booked this excursion during our birthday celebration for one of our friends. We loved that the group was small, the restaurants were very hospitable, the food delicious, the tour guide was knowledgeable and made the tour interesting and fun. Great experience!

Quebec City Fall 2024 - Our guide was excellent. He told us the history of Old Quebec and took us to 3 very interesting and unique restaurants. The included drinks were good as well. The gelato finished the tour off perfectly. We would definitely recommend this tour to friends.

Such a wonderful way to spend 3 hours - Jean Claude guided us on this entertaining and educational tour. We loved it. He was very personable. He made eye contact and engaged the group. The pace was perfect for those of us when we had trouble with the hills. 4 stops for food, 4 wonderful restaurants and plenty of history. If you ever get a chance to take this tour, do it!

Charmant et instructif! (charming and informative) - What a fun way to explore la ville ville de Québec! Jean-Claude was so charming, informative, knowledgeable and personable - wearing period costume and engaging us in a well paced tour broken down into 4 centuries of history - and FOOD! The selected restaurants were excellent, accommodating my food intolerances graciously ... we thoroughly enjoyed this fun tour of this beautiful city! ( the walking distance was not excessive, but there are hills and cobblestones) Merci bien!

Quebec City - The tour covered a lot of interesting places, and the 4 food stops were very tasty. Though our guide had a lot of information, it came out very scattered, so much of the information was hard to follow.

Tour felt incomplete - The guide was extremely informative, friendly, and knowledgeable. However, the tour did not include the most charming and interesting part of the city. The entire lower part of the town was skipped. The guide never even mentioned that part of town and the description of the tour mentioned taking the funicular so it was a surprise that the tour didn’t include this part of the city. Thankfully, we found it during our own exploration. Food tastings were unique and delicious
