Today I have visited the city and I liked it a lot. Everything was nice and well prepared. I especially liked oure guide, eva. She was very nice, told us a story about the city before we arrive. She also is cheerful and energetic. I loved evrything about this trip.
The quebec tour was fantastic its definitely a must see. The trip started with water falls and then ended with us roaming old quebec love every second of it. Our tour guide eva was fantastic too.
I had a great day With my son And enjoyed everything, specially the Guide Eva who help us Discover the Quebec City the whole thing was amazing
Activity fee is not included. The guide will collect fee only by cash in the bus, $50 per adult. Actually, most of fee is not needed. For example, Observatoire de la Capitale in Quebec City is very boring, not worth to pay for it. Also, the cable car in Montmorency fall is not needed if you are not interested in cable car experience. The fall is very closed and it will have more fun if you walk to the fall. The most interesting place is the old Quebec City and it is free. Suggest that if you choose this tour, don’t pre-pay any activity fee in the bus. But if you do that, the guide may not be happy🤣
I think this trip was definitely worth every penny! Our tour guide Eva was highly professional and enthusiastic, and everyone had a wonderful time. My favorite part was the free time at Château Frontenac. There was plenty of time to take photos, grab a bite to eat, and browse the souvenir shops.
Time to walk around Quebec City at the end of the day was a good way to get a mix of history during the trip as well as exploring at our own leisure. Eva was a great tour guide, offering interesting tidbits throughout the trip and was very friendly with the travellers all throughout the trip! Me and my family appreciated her attentiveness and flexibility when it came to tour activities ✨ Thanks again Eva!
Wonder experience with wonder travel. The waterfalls in Montmorency was so spectacular and the old town of Quebec was such a must see. Thank you Eva our guide for the best time
Experience was really good. Amazing trip provided to Quebec and Eva the tour guide operated the tour systematically and everytime on time as planned.
Great tour! I truly enjoyed Quebec City and Montmorency falls. Everything was on time and clear instructions.
Definitely much better than driving. Ride was comfortable. Guide was pleasant and helpful, but some difficulty with language barrier. Be aware that pricing of this trip is ride only. Created a lot of confusion for many passengers. Had to pay in CASH only on the bus for 1) entrance to Montmorency Falls, 2) cable ride to top off Falls, and 3) 360 degree overlook in Quebec. Would be smoother if paid ahead of time or credit/Cash App/venmo were used.
