Very entertaining, and so much history, everyone loved it, Angie was amazing, the whole crew did amazing, highly recommend it
Fun and interesting tour with a mix of walking and some long standing. Very informative to the history of how crime was handled over the years. The guide added drama and interaction with the participants.
Marianne was an excellent storyteller! Learned much about crime and punishment in New France! I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone with an interest in the history of criminal justice.
It was fantastic! Very entertaining and we learned a lot about old Quebec. The time went by very quickly
It is more about the functioning of the court than about the criminals. I do not like your survey because I prefer yes or no questions.
Nice evening walk with a great performance. Was a wonderful experience and look into the past. Jean was Quebecs executioner
Great information about the city. The guide was a lot of fun. Very interesting. Learned new things about the city.
We had a wonderful time with Mari-Vivienne! Her character was the perfect mix of creepy and quirky and she kept us entertained and engaged the whole time. We saw a lot more of the old town than I expected and the tour was just the right length. Thanks for a spooky good time!
This was an excellent evening out. Fun, funny, entertaining and informative. Highly recommended. Our guide, Marie Rivière no less, was absolutely brilliant.
We had Marrie at 8:00 pm on June 4th and she was amazing. This tour was a highlight of our trip.
