It was a lot of fun, great food and interesting history. He was good a great guide. His name was yves
We’ve done the walking food tour a couple times visiting the city of Quebec. We would recommend to anyone visiting the city.
Our guide was fantastic. We learned so much more than expected about Quebec while sampling food & drinks from 3 different restaurants along the way.
Enjoyed the detailed history while walking the old city. Guide had many facts to share and liked how the history was presented. The guide took questions throughout the tour from past to present which were helpful understanding the people who had lived inside the walls as well as present day.
Enjoyed our tour, the food was interesting and Jonathan our guide was very informative. There were 9 in our party which was an ideal size.
