This was a unique and wonderful way to spend a beautiful day exploring the Isle d'Orleans with no stress.
This was a very pleasant tour. The food and drink were excellent and our guide and driver were great. My son and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
We had the BEST day! Our driver and tour guide Lynn were top notch. We were royally treated to spectacular views of Montmorency Falls, a beautiful tour of Ile d’Orleans, and wonderful food and beverage tastings at lovely boutique farms, and at the same time receiving a fantastic narrative of the area’s history. The camaraderie was such a joy. A heartfelt thank you, for making this the highlight of our weekend getaway. Nancy and Dev
Wonderful tour with many great things to see and eat. Our guide was top notch! Even brought us hats for the cool weather. I 100% recommend this tour.
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Lynn, was a fantastic tour guide. She was so knowledgeable. We enjoyed all the stops. We finished the day, happy, full, tired and extremely satisfied we spent the day with Lynn.
My wife and I had a wonderful time visiting Montmorency Falls and exploring Ile d’Orleans on a beautiful October afternoon. Our guide Pierre was excellent. He clearly has a passion for the foods and people and natural beauty of the Quebec region.
Our agritourism tour of Île d'Orléans was an unforgettable experience. We had the pleasure of visiting local farms and vineyards, where we tasted incredible homemade soup, local wine, charcuterie, and delicious scones with jam. This tour was a true highlight of our trip to Quebec, offering a wonderful taste of the island's rich agricultural culture. Our tour guide (Lynn) was passionate about Quebec history, culture as well as the local farming culture. We really got to experience the beauty of Quebec. Highly recommended!
My husband and I did the half-day trip to Montmorency Falls and Ile d’Orleans, with Marie as our guide and Alex as our driver. It was one of our favorite activities during a trip to Montreal and Quebec. I was a little nervous when I realized that most of the stops either had alcohol or things we didn’t eat, but everything turned out quite well. We had a beautiful day and felt like we were part of the locals going to the island for the day to taste the various offerings. Marie was a great guide - knowledgeable, warm, and easy to be around. We went to Bunker Farm to taste the squash soup, squash chips, maple syrup, pickled vegetables, and berries. Then, we down the road a bit to an apple orchard/winery and had a beautiful charcuterie board with sparkling apple juice. From there, we went to a goat farm shop and did a goat cheese tasting and had goat milk ice cream. All in, we would highly recommend the experience. And, it was a nice break from being in Old Quebec City (which we loved, but the trip was a lovely complement).
Unique experience with a wide variety of local food products. Beautiful countryside and loved seeing Quebec from a different perspective.
What an amazing way to see the falls and the island and experience the culture! We met wonderful, creative people and learned about their businesses. It was a very personalized way of touring. Danielle, our guide, and Alex, our driver, were so friendly and knowledgeable.
