On MARCH 1 we booked a JULY 12, 2024 11:30am Quebec City tour with Local Food Tours and received…read moreconfirmation with instruction to arrive 15 minutes early at Restaurant La Buche, 49 Rue Saint Louis. On July 10 at 12:23pm we received an email message that our tour was being cancelled "due to circumstances out of our (the tour company's) control." The company asked if we would be available on July 11 or July 13 for rebooking (we were NOT available). Less than one hour later (1:09pm to be exact) we received another email stating "You can disregard my previous email. I was able to find a solution." We responded, "Thank you. We will plan on our original reservation." On the day of the scheduled event (July 12, 20024) we arrived early at the restaurant for our 11:30am tour. At 11:22am, seeing neither a tour representative nor other tour participants, I telephone the tour company but only got an answering machine message, spoke in French (which I could not understand). At 11:29am I sent an email to the tour company stating, "We are waiting at La Buche but see no guide. Please confirm today's tour is planned as originally scheduled." Around the same time we learned from the guide of a different food tour group (but with the same tour company) that the starting point of our tour had apparently been changed. WE WERE NEVER NOTIFIED !!! At 1:10pm I finally received a call from a company representative who apologized for the situation. Our travel plans did not allow us to "reschedule" the tour, and by this time our disappointment and frustration at having been "stood up" led us to demand an immediate refund of the tour payment. We had believed this food tour would be a true HIGH POINT of our visit to Quebec City. Instead, it became a COMPLETE DISASTER. We have traveled to many places internationally over several decades and never, ever experienced such a failure to communicate

The only problem was AFTER the tour, when I had to walk up the 200 steps and several steep uphill sections back to my parked automobile. Unless you are a young athlete, please take the Funicular back to the top! It's worth whatever they charge you. Also, street parking in this area is almost impossible to come by. Parking at a local hotel cost me $50 (Canadian). Be careful where you park.

Every single person that works here was helpful and welcoming. If you're considering renting bikes in Quebec, this is the place.

We have taken our tandem on a airplane before - this was so much better! Rental was reasonable. We reserved ahead but staff were flexible when our plans unfortunately had to change (I rode a single the first week when my partner couldn't get away). Staff went all out to make sure we had a wonderful visit. Cyclo provided well-fitting helmets, a lock, and bungie cords. Cycling is a great way to see this beautiful part of the world. Thank you Cyclo staff for a epic trip!

We stopped at the historical church of Basilique Saints-Anne-de Beaupre, the beautiful waterfall of Parc de la Chute-Montmorency, which was my favorite of the stops, a copper artisan shop (which I could have done without), and a charming chocolate shop in Ile D'Orleans which I loved. Our tour guide, Allen, was wonderful. He was full of knowledge, as his family is from the country side where he took us to, easy to listen to, and funny. The single deck bus was clean and comfortable. Each of the stops had clean restrooms. If you're looking for an inexpensive way to kill some time, learn a little history, and want to see the countryside, I recommend this tour, particularly with Allen as the tour guide.

We didn't expect four stops with just about 40 minutes left for each of the two places we really wanted to visit. The trip to the island was a surprise but it was just to see an ice cream / chocolate shop. Surely there were more things to see on the island. The copper demonstration was also a surprise. The artist was lovely and the cooper beautiful but is is definitely not something we were interested in. Another reviewer said cut this from the tour - I agree. I would have rather spent more time at St Anne's. The falls weren't as promised. The cable cars weren't running and the paths were still closed. So we viewed the falls from quite a distance. They should have told us the cable cars weren't operative. Very disappointing to say the least. St Anne's was lovely. We arrived just as mass started which was odd - we sat and joined services for a bit so we wouldn't disrupt the congregation. We should have arrived before or after mass not during mass. We had a car and could have saved $110 plus the bus driver tip and driven the short 15 - 20 minute drive ourselves. The falls and St Anne's are about 10 minutes apart. For the falls we would have parked at the top and walked across the bridge at the top (which was open) rather than view the falls from a block or two away. For the church, we would have arrived before mass so we could have walked around without disturbing the parishioners. If you don't have a car - this tour permits you to see St Anne's and the falls but I would make sure the cable cars are working (we were told they are closed until mid to late June 2023). Alternatively, if you don't have a car - I encourage you to check into uber. You could probably spend less for the three car rides and spend more time at St Anne's and at the Falls.

It was an odd visit to a tourist information center where one expects to find racks full of maps, brochures and restaurant flyers. The stark and empty room suggested that the information center was winding down after a busy summer tourist season. I saw a few posters on the wall but no brochures. Although I was the only visitor in the center, a woman gave me a number and directed me to stand on a non-existent line to speak to a representative. The representative gave me one map of Old Quebec and when asked, she had no brochures or flyers to give me. Note - some visitors might find the stairs and the heavy front door a challenge when visiting the tourism office.

We couldn't find anywhere near the city that rented proper motorcycles, so I looked into scooters! Quebec adventure tours was perfect. The guy who signed us in was a hoot. Spoke English as well as French, and he was funny! He did a perfect job of introducing us to the scooters (we've never ridden automatics before!) One of my favorite things is that he did a perfect job of balancing the fun of riding with the responsibilities and dangers. He didn't scare the new people, but made sure they understood how to stay safe and have a healthy respect for the bikes. The scooters were 50ccs (a fair bit smaller than my Kawasaki 1700!!) They were tons of fun. We toured around the island for about 4 hours. We'd driven the island many times before, but seeing it at a slower pace without the frame of a car around us was amazing. We got to see the island in a whole new light. I highly recommend seeing the island by scooter or electric bike, and I highly recommend Quebec Adventure Tours! A solid 5 stars!

Then we roamed the island and took in the beauty of the neighbourhoods and island views. There are public washrooms everywhere, just look for the little blue sign! We stopped at Cassis Monna et Filles for the best sangria I've ever had, on a serene hill with beautiful views and picnic tables or FatBoy cushions to lounge on and enjoy the surroundings. Our last stop was the Nougat store just up the road, where we got salted caramel nougat (my fav) and pistachio nougat. Could not recommend this more, and definitely looking forward to coming back again!
