About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- paulaH7321LS0 contributionsGreat day trip to QuebecWe had a wonderful well spent day trip from Montreal to Quebec. Our tour guide Mr Yu was amazing, knowledgeable and had provided the organized trip. He speaks English, French and Chinese throughout the trip, that's already impressive. We had not had early breakfast in the morning and it's great that the trip includes McDonald's stop along the way to grab the breakfast. Then we headed to ice hotel, if you had not purchased the ticket during booking you can pay cash at the bus. The next stop is water fall. Then the last stop is beautiful old town Quebec. Mr Yu has helped with many recommendations, we had the best maple latte and pistachio rolls in Le Petit Dep coffee shop. We appreciate their flexibility to allow us to join the trip one way and brought our luggage on the bus because we are staying a night in Quebec, next day return back to Montreal by train. Not to mention our driver Mr Steve, he is very efficient driver with a skill, a pleasant guy. I would recommend this trip if you have limited time to visit Quebec. Trip itinerary is slightly different in the winter vs summer.Written 18 January 2025
- 48lingyih0 contributionsFun excursionIt was an amazing trip! We got lucky to see the ice hotel since it opened a little early. Old Quebec is so beautiful too. The guide and driver both did a great job. Such a magical experience!Written 1 January 2025
- 308cristing0 contributionsMore time at the Falls, less in Quebec CityWhile Quebec City was beautiful, three hours of free time felt rather long on such a cold day. I believe we could have received more helpful guidance about things to do around town, possibly indoors. Restaurants were packed and hard to get into without a reservation. I would rather have spent more time at Montmorency Falls--we had enough time to walk to the base of the Falls and back but the suspension bridge would have been more amazing! The Falls was really the highlight of the whole day for us. Furthermore, I wasn't terribly impressed with our guide, who was definitely trying but with whom I didn't feel made a very personal connection with any of us.Written 31 December 2024
- cindyjan140 contributionsSuch a good experience!We were able to do a lot of things in this one day tour. We went to the ice hotel, waterfall, and old Quebec. They stopped at multiple locations for us to take a restroom break and small snacks. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Will definitely join a tour from this company again in the future. Thank you.Written 29 December 2024
- quincy d0 contributionsQuebec City tourOur guide Hugh was great as well as the driver. We visited Quebec City and after a short guided tour we had some time for our own exploring. The guide gave recommendations for life much which was helpful. We had addl stops to see the Falls and the ice hotel ( if you pay extra ). Overall a very nice trip.Written 29 December 2024
- Daydream433520588260 contributionsGood, quick tourOur guide, Richard, was quite knowledgeable of the city and made the hour of standing in freezing weather both informative and fun.Written 11 December 2024
- Rebecca M0 contributionsExplore and Get LostGot shuttled to the main bus that took us to Quebec. I thought it was nice there wasn't that much talking during that time so me and hubby can caught up on some sleep to be ready for the main walking and tour. We opted to just do the tour and walk around town which was and amazing time for us. We had plenty of time to get lost explore and try some amazing food in local spot. Isn't that the point of traveling to experience and discover new things? I know that's what we were there for.Written 25 November 2024
- O2357ZDcarmenm0 contributionsGreat day!The tour is well organized. We had just enough time to see the water fall and explore the city. Our tour guide and bus driver were great.Written 16 November 2024
- Y6187CSluzp0 contributionsExcellentLong day but excellent professional service. Complete tour. Convenient pickup and drop off after returning Very pleased with tour.Written 9 November 2024
- ShannArtLife0 contributionsInformative and EntertainingThis was an amazing tour and it exceeded my expectations. The host Chao was informative and took his time explaining things so everyone knew what the agenda was. He also had a great sense of humor! As a tourist, I learned a lot about Montreal and Quebec City. I was also able to add on/purchase another activity that I didn’t originally book which I appreciated. I would take the tour again if I could! I definitely recommend to fellow tourists who have a day to spare and don’t mind a 2+ hour bus ride.Written 6 November 2024
- cathyd0 contributionsGreat intro to QuebecOur guide William was the best. Besides speaking Chinese, French, English and Spanish, he was super organized. Really liked that we had assigned seats. Lee, our driver, got us to and from Quebec safely. Bus did have a couple issues - emergency bathroom was broken and the charging outlets didn’t work until we were on our way back. Trip was great and timing was just right at the different stops. Pickup at our hotel was as scheduled. We received several texts from tour operator with details. Highly recommend this tour.Written 29 October 2024
- F5904PNdannyl0 contributionsTerrible trip experienceThe trip not worth for $129 pp. We stop at Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac for more than 4 hours then head to Montmorency Falls for 20 minutes. Trip end and head back to Montreal.Written 20 October 2024
- Lduke290 contributionsOld Quebec City TourGreat experience overall from booking to end of tour. Free Pick up and drop off at our hotel was a great perk. Tour bus was clean and comfortable. Our tour guide Mr Yu was awesome. He spoke 3 different languages.Written 20 October 2024
- chrissophinos0 contributionsGreat City, Worthless Cruise!Nice place, quaint and historic! We had a nice trip but it is a long day. The falls were impressive but an hour was too long. The old town was cute but there was just no time to see upper Quebec. The problem was the cruise- it was worthless! We were too far from shore to see any sights and the food was expensive and tasteless. Avoid at all costs. The tour guide was pushing everyone to do the cruise but it was not enjoyable. We missed time in Old Quebec which is quite beautiful! Lesson learned.Written 19 October 2024
- 293dickh0 contributionsWet and cold, but worth itEven though the weather did not cooperate the tour went very well. Everything was on time and just as promised. The guide was very personable and concerned for everyoneWritten 15 October 2024

We took this tour last Sunday, it was supposed to rain, but we were so lucky to have
it as a nice sunny day. We enjoyed the trip, first stop at the waterfall, then free time to explore Quebec City at our pace. Our tour guide knows so friendly, we learned a lot about the history of Quebec from her, she also showed us the most popular restaurants, we love it, though it took quite a long line for the table. The only pity, my husband didn't take the cable car, because he's afraid of heights. Someone says here, it's expensive, but personally, I love it and it's only 16 bucks, and I saw rainbow while taking it!

I went to the Full-Day Québec City and Cruise Tour with my friend and it was a great experience. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and helpful in guiding us through the city and the attractions. Would definitively recommend if you have never been in Quebec City or if you just want to visit the city again.

It is a long day but a fulfilling one. Eva was a terrific guide and was very helpful throughout, and was impressively fluent in English, French and Chinese. The tour of the lower part of Old Quebec (with a local guide) was informative but did go a bit long. Fortunately it is optional and we had a great time exploring after we moved on to do our own thing. The boat ride to end the day was relaxing and enjoyable. Would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Montreal who is looking to spend a day in Quebec City.

The time actually spent in Old Quebec was not as long as described in the itinerary however the real problem was the bus. It had NOT been cleaned before we boarded. The seat pockets had empty drink bottles, old food wrappers and used serviettes etc. This is not acceptable especially during Covid! Then once we got on the highway to Quebec City we realized that the bus front door was broken and one side of door flapped continuously during the drive. We drove through a terrible rain storm on our drive back to Montreal. During the drive our Tour Director had decided to lie down across the seats and go to sleep. I have never seen a Tour Director sleep on the tour bus. During the drive the rain starting coming in through the front windshield (no I'm not kidding). The driver needed help trying to mop up the water while he was driving the bus. He had to scream at the Tour Director to wake him up for help. The broken front door had water coming in and the front window shield was leaking under both visors. In addition the driver was driving way too fast during the storm and one of the other passengers stood up and told the Tour Director to tell the driver to slow down. Thankfully he did.
Old Quebec is lovely but I definitely do not recommend this tour company!

First, the falls and old Quebec City are beautiful and we were lucky to have visited on such a lovely day. And you have plenty of time at both places . However, the positives of the trip really end there. There were a lot of negatives to this specific tour, and I only booked it due to availability on my needed date, otherwise I would have taken the tour with another company. So let’s start: 1) The bus is extremely uncomfortable and was not a big coach bus meant for long distance travel. It was more of a school bus, and thus the ride was extremely bumpy and loud…I got severely motion sick. I even asked the tour guide when boarding the bus if I could have a seat towards the front to help with my motion sickness and he just said no and assigned me to a seat in the back (everyone has an assigned seat by the way). Even other passengers commented on the terrible bus ride and also got motion sick, so it wasn’t just me. 2) It was extremely difficult to hear through the speaker because the bus was so loud and bumpy. 3) if you book through Viator/TripAdvisor, your tour includes entrance to the falls. But if you book it through their website, it does not. Neither includes the cable car at the falls, which I feel like should be included if there is no cruise. Anyway, if you want to do the cable car, the company charges you 16.50 +3% credit card fee. Now, if you buy your cable car ticket yourself when you get there, it is $2 less! And you only need a one way ticket to the top since that’s where the bus picks you up anyway. But the extra $2 per person that chooses to do the cable car adds up…it’s just robbery. They can’t even say the extra money is for park entrance fees as that’s already a separate cost of 5.50 if you didn’t book through Viator/TripAdvisor. 4) most tour buses include charging outlets for your electronics given that it is a 12 hour day, but this bus has nothing at all. 5) at the end of the tour, we were supposed to be dropped off to a driver once back in Montreal to be driven back to our hotel. Except, the tour guide did not even call some of the drivers to let them know we were almost there. So by the time we arrived back in Montreal, a few of us had to wait for the driver to be contacted. In the end, I wouldn’t recommend this specific tour. You’re better off taking the train from Montreal…it’s more comfortable.

My recent experience on the Full-Day Quebec City and Cruise Tour fell somewhere in the middle of my travel adventures: not overwhelmingly impressive but not entirely disappointing either.
The city itself is a sight to behold, brimming with historic charm and scenic vistas. The architecture stands as a testament to a rich past, while the picturesque St. Lawrence River adds an appealing aquatic touch. These elements create an ambiance that could have provided a wonderful day out, but certain aspects of the tour failed to rise to the occasion.
Our guide, an elderly lady full of enthusiasm, was diligent in delivering information about the city. However, her explanations largely felt like rehearsed scripts from online tourist websites. Nothing she shared felt exclusive or offered fresh insights, which would have made our experience more enriching.
Moreover, the tour was conducted under the glaring midday sun. Despite the heat, there were no arrangements made for shade or respite from the scorching rays. This lack of consideration for the climate made it uncomfortable to fully immerse oneself in the narratives and sights of Quebec City.
Upon interacting with local shopkeepers, I felt a sharp departure from the warm Atlantic Canadian hospitality I am accustomed to. They seemed more focused on conducting business than creating genuine connections with the visitors. This somewhat commercial atmosphere resulted in Quebec City not giving off a particularly homey feeling, but rather a place geared towards maximizing tourist expenditure.
While the city's beauty is undeniable, the overall experience felt somewhat lacking in terms of hospitality and local charm. It was more akin to a transaction rather than an immersion in Quebecois culture.
In conclusion, the Full-Day Quebec City and Cruise Tour is worth a visit for its natural beauty and historic appeal. However, be prepared for a somewhat impersonal experience, and don't forget to bring along your sun protection.

The tour guide Quan Xin Ren was very rude and charged us for activities that were not mandatory and that we had already taken on previous trips, he threatened to get us off the bus in the middle of the trip at the gas station if we did not pay for them.
In addition, the bus was making a loud noise, almost unbearable.
It was one of the worst trips, I am not going to recommend this tours again and this is the last time I use their services.

They were on time, very polite, and provided pick up and drop off to my hotel. Communicated everything to us. The walking tour guide was very knowledgeable and local to Quebec City. These guys were awesome! Totally recommended booking with them. The tour included a boat ride and trip to falls. I personally didn’t love the boat ride but it is included so you don’t have to pay for it separately and it is optional if you prefer to spend more time walking around Quebec City. Your planned well and there was definitely enough time to do things between activities so didn’t feel like we were rushing between places.

I went to the Full-Day Quebec City and Tour Cruise along with my boyfriend. It was our first time exploring this beautiful city and I was amazed by the breathtaking views and restaurants. A big thank you to our tour guide, Eddie who made this trip memorable. He had an extremely friendly and welcoming approach with all the passengers. He explained well the trip and even gave some advice about shops, restaurants and historical places to visit in Quebec city. Throughout the trip, Eddie had been entertaining and didn’t even realize how time passed by so quickly. We definitely recommend this trip!!!

This was worth the trip. It’s a 3 hour bus ride from Montreal but the bus was comfortable. Our guide, Eddie, was courteous and knowledgeable. The Montmorency Falls was beautiful and just outside Quebec. Quebec City was like being in a French town, very beautiful old world feeling with tons of great places to eat. The boat cruise was a great photo op of Quebec City and gave us a chance to relax before the bus ride back to Montreal. I just wished there was an App that helped us tourists guide the historical landmarks and art of the city. I’d definitely do the tour again, and recommend to my friends and family.
