The best way to learn quickly and enjoy the views! - Bring a bottle of water and use the bathroom before you start! There is no place to really use the facilities along the way.

Excellent tour!! - Our guide, Tommy, was great! He was very knowledgeable about the history of Quebec City and the development of French-Canadian culture. He took us all around the different historical sites of importance and provided specific details about the First Nation, French and British rule and its influence today.
