Price for coach trip ton Montmorecy falls was expensive in it self, having to add cost of return flight on elevator nearly doubled cost. Save money and go up on elevator and walk down stairs on way back.

Marcel was an excellent driver AND tour guide. He made sure there was the right amount of time at each stop. Marcel adjusted the order of stops to take advantage of the spectacular morning weather. We enjoyed the beautiful Montmorency Falls first and chose to walk up some of the steps overlooking the Falls. Beautiful rainbows appeared at mid-day. We were surprised and delighted with the stop at the Albert Giles copper museum. One of the owners (now run by the 5 daughters of the founder) demonstrated the craft. We then wandered about to admire the intricate works by the late founder as well as the current descendant owners. I bought a lovely necklace/earring set designed by Sophie, a third-generation niece. The finale for us was the visit to St. Anne deBeaupre, the church where my late mother-in-law had visited. It was wonderful to visit this beautiful church with intricate copper doors designed by Giles. Thank you, Marcel, for a well conducted tour.

Unknown to us this was the day of the Quebec marathon, so things were somewhat chaotic in the city. However, being one of the largest tour operators in the area you would have thought Unitours would have know and, more importantly, contacted people with reservations. They were quick enough to charge my credit card but failed to mention that the departure location was changed to about a mile away! So, when no bus was to be seen and the place full of runners, police and security guards we started to panic. We were at the designated place 20 minutes ahead of time but not until we enquired at the tourist office we told of the change in plan and directed where to walk. We finally arrived at the new location and saw about half a dozen busses but none marked with any kind of signage. We asked one driver and he pointed to a blue bus. That driver pointed to a red bus and that guide scanned our ticket and told us we were too late. We kept asking but he had no record of our reservation. He then contacted the office who waved some kind of magic wand and put us on another bus. Total chaos. Not the slightest sign of any kind of organization. Nobody knew what was going on. When the bus finally left, 0ver 30 minutes late, it took another 30 minutes to travel one block. OK, not the bus companies fault but with some kind of planning they could have picked a better location. So now an hour late leaving the city we were rather rushed through the various stops. The only thing that salvaged a one rating was that the driver knew his stuff and did a good job guiding is through the various locations. Would have rather spent more time in the Basilica than the 15 minutes we were given (allowing for walking a restroom stops). So, a really bad start for which I blame the company and a pretty good trip for which I praise the driver/guide. PS. Having a driver also act as guide is a significant safety hazard. One should not talk on the phone and drive so why make your drivers talk. Too cheap to hire guides I expect. Not a good company.

Relaxing and informative. Yves did a wonderful job of explaining the scenery, the history, the architecture and wildlife as we drove, and he did it with tasteful humor. The stops were well planned and enjoyable. The basilica was amazing and surrounded by beautiful trees in full color. At the falls there was enough time for those who wished to ride the trolley car. Yves made the trip very special and I appreciated his wealth of local knowledge and lore. Highly recommend this tour

These are the top two sights around Quebec City and it makes sense to combine them into a half-day excursion. The falls are actually taller than Niagara and easy to enjoy up close. The basilica is a short visit around the grounds or inside and worth a stop.

This tour was so much better than I had anticipated. The places we visited were interesting but the very best part was our driver/guide, Francois. He was engaging, entertaining and educational. The Ste-Anne-de Beaupre Basilica was stunning. The copper factory was most interesting. The Montmorency Falls were beautiful. And who can go wrong with an ice cream/chocolate stop. The two decker bus was clean and comfortable. We got to see countryside and neighborhoods outside of the walled city. Plus a tour of the Island of Orleans was very pleasant.

We started this tour off on the with a real challenge. We arrived about 20 minutes early at the designated meeting place … there was no one there. We asked a security guard nearby who directed us to stand nearby. Somehow we missed the tour bus and guide. At precisely 2 minutes after the designated arrival time, we received a phone call from Unitours telling us we had missed the bus and had to take a cab to the next stop on the tour. We are not sure why they could not have called us a minute or two earlier so that we could have made the bus. We were glad to finally join the tour but we left wondering about why a tour company would treat visitors to Quebec City so rudely. The tour visited some interesting places but we were disappointed. The guide was also the bus driver. He drove and talked most of the way … many people on the bus just talked over him.

Excellent and informative, we especially appreciate tour guide Peter. The tour covered all the major historic and architectural feature if this lovely city. Peter was humorous, knowledgable and personable. He welcomed us personally and made us fell welcomed

The stops and guide were terrific! Only drawback was the huge 60+ seat double deck bus took 5-10 minutes to load and 10 minutes to unload at each stop.

It was a great trip. Very well planned, very comfortable & we were given enough time at every location we visited. The bus we were on, had issues with cooling, but that was resolved at our 1st stop itself where the organisers got in a new bus.

Excellent itinerary in tour but tight schedule. I would suggest that the tour needs at least 1 more hour. The places visited were excellent, and each one held its own charm and interest. As this may be our one and only visits to these places, we were not given enough time for even the briefest of encounter. The copper museum, we were given 20 mins,had so much to see on the show, let alone make any purchase. It took us 5mins+ just to get off the bus. Isle de Orleans was superb but again rushed. So I recommend tour , but operator please give us more time to enjoy. Don't just grab our money and make us run.

Great tour. In addition to the beautiful falls, the church was really spectacular. The stop for chocolate was good, too. FYI There are also sandwiches there. If you order the ice cream with chocolate, be aware that it is very thick. Not a basic American dip cone. Lol. The copper arts place was interesting. Great way to spend an afternoon. Great tour- our driver was Francois.

What a great variety of stops. Loved Montmorency Galls and the church. Our driver guide, was SO informative as well as funny. Would definitely recommend this tour.

A great way for transportation to Montmorency Falls. It is the Blue Line bus and you can reserve ahead. We booked for the 10:45AM. The two decker blue Bus was at intersection by Tourist Center in Old Quebec on Rue St. Anne. It was only about 15 minute ride to the Falls. We had time to walk the lower promenade, take cable car to top, walk to bridge over the falls, stop for lunch at the Manoir Manor Restaurant and Terrace, return on cable car then catch the Blue Line Bus at 2:00PM (14:00) for return to the city. Arriving early was great as it got crowded later in day. The Blue Line bus was perfect. Additionally, it was a beautiful sunshine day for enjoying these fantastic waterfalls. We had plenty of time to explore the falls. Highly recommend the Blue Line Bus. The Bus Driver was excellent, too. We left on time and he returned on time for for leaving the Falls.

OK tour, the falls were nice but the rest of the trip other than the copper museum was a bit disappointing. Other stops made were at a chocolate store and the church. The chocolate store was jammed with other people on tour as well.
