Private Tour: Montmorency Falls & Ste-Anne-de-Beaupré from Québec

The tour guide was knowledgeable and we appreciate him being so friendly. We got to know about the facts about the history of the falls, while we walked along the scenic trails. Visit to the basilica was the ideal way to unwind after having explored the beauty of the falls. It ended up being a a memorable day trip for us.

This half-day tour covered two major, unmissable landmarks efficiently and satisfied my interests in history, nature and architecture. It was an experience of the Quebec area beyond the walls of Old Quebec.

Our tour guide was very easy to work with and flexible. We loved our tour and would definitely recommend it.

The tour was well-organized, and our knowledgeable guide provided us with a useful information about the history and culture of the region. The Basilica of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré is an awe-inspiring structure with stunning architecture and beautiful stained glass windows. Our guide provided us with interesting facts about the history of the basilica and its significance to the local community.

On our trip to Quebec City, my husband and I took this bus tour. Our first stop was the Montmorency Falls, which were quite a sight to view! We were told that because of the lack of rain the falls were not as powerful as normal. However, it was thrilling to walk along the boardwalk and get closer. As we approached we saw a rainbow and had other tourists take our photo with the rainbow and the falls! We might have liked to stay longer so that we could have ventured up to the top of the falls, possibly riding the cable cars. We were afraid to do so though. Next we went to Ile d’Orleans and had lunch at Le Chocolaterie! I must say they were very quick in giving sandwiches to these who wanted them. And the food was good! We did come back here the next day on a separate tour of Ile d’Orleans and felt there was duplication between the two trips. The next day we had time to purchase chocolates! The third stop was Cuivres D’Art, the studio and museum by Albert Gilles! We saw lovely copper gifts as well as copper doors that were made for churches around the world. Next we visited the magnificent Sanctuary of St Anne-de-Beaupre. Fortunately it was not crowded while there and we were able to wander through the church and contemplate the stain glass windows, the crutches and canes that were left by those who were cured of various diseases or disabilities. My husband had been to this church as a child with his parents and two siblings. In the gift shop we found some small remembrances. My one complaint was that we returned to Quebec City at least an hour late. At each stop and even before we left, people were left getting to the bus and thus elongated the tour. I think the bus driver/guide should have reminded people to be considerate of others and get to the bus on time! We did enjoy learning about the various places we toured and felt our guide was very knowledgeable!

My partner and I recently embarked on a private half-day excursion from Quebec City, and it turned out to be one of the most unforgettable experiences of our trip. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting Quebec City.

We had a wonderful afternoon. Our tour guide was awesome. She was so knowledgeable about a wide variety of topics. The pleasant conversation lasted all afternoon. The basilica was breathtaking and the falls are not to be missed. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience

Feeling all the might of the 83-metre-high waterfall Parc de la Chute‑Montmorency, was quite an experience to remember. It is a gorgeous natural landmark. And we viewed it from many angles and took photos for memories. We had a great time in this tour.

Sanctuaire Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré is worth seeing and has spiritual significance. The guide was quite engaging and shared interesting tales of some ancient times.

Two prominent landmarks were covered in this half day tour. The Montmorency Falls is majestic and a natural wonder. The tour guide told us about the religious significance of the Ste-Anne-de-Beaupré Basilica. The guide’s expertise and knowledge enhanced the overall experience.
