Traveler Tips

If it's busy, take the cable car up, but then walk back down, it will be quicker.

The Falls are gorgeous and it is somewhat of a climb but well worth it once you make it to the top.

The Falls are beautiful and worth the trip but unfortunately not enough time there.

Ashley_C, Aug 2022

Great trip out of the city! Best way to explore everything without renting a car, highly recommend! Perfect amount of time at each stop on the tour.

Excellent Tour

ED_A, Aug 2022

The drive and especially Kim the tour guide were outstanding. Kim was engaging, humorous, and very informative filling us with local history in an interesting manor. We would highly recommend this tour and tour guide.

Loved 3 out of 4 stops

Augustine_B, Aug 2022

The Falls, the Church and the artist’s atelier were excellent. At the Chocolate store I expected a tour/demo experience of chocolate making. We were dropped off for about 30 minutes and expected to buy chocolate and ice cream. Waste of time for me. The island itself where chocolate store was located was lovely.

Great trip. Would have...

Steve_M, Aug 2022

Great trip. Would have liked more time built into the schedule for the falls. Did not have enough time to ride the tram.

Great experience

Pat_B, Aug 2022

copper shop as amazing. Falls were so pretty. Granddaughter climbed to the top-she loved that. Over all great. Driver’s Commentary was great but he needed a new mike. Lots of static. Good tour

A petit taste of Quebec history.

Rosemarie_O, Aug 2022

John was a fount of history with added humor. Kept track of schedule. Considerate of passengers and addressed issues that may occur.

Lowest price guarantee not honoured.

Wayne_G, Aug 2022

I have found that I could have booked this same trip directly through Unitour at $20. Cheaper per person. When I contacted Viator to request a refund under their lowest price guarantee, they said the price they were offering was the suggested price by the tour operator. So really their lowest price guarantee is not honoured. I will stay away from booking anything with Viator in the future.

Awesome

Seema_S, Aug 2022

Wonderful tour of fall , chocholate factory, copper museum and church. Tour guide was very nice and informative. Must try. Recommend if you have less time and want to see more in quebec.

Wonderful way to visit Quebec cities sites

William_M, Jul 2022

The view from the top of Montmorency Fall with the sun reflecting on the mist. As well as the visit of the Basilica, the work of art on the main entrance doors and the stained glass. Don't miss the ice cream & chocolate experience at (Chocolaterie de l'ile d'orléan) decadent! The tour drive & guide added the wonderful experience!

Very nice day exploring...

ErvinJ_M, Jul 2022

Very nice day exploring the outside of Quebec. The tour guide was funny and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

Great to see and learn

Steven_J, Jul 2022

When we could not get to the pick up point on time, we were sure that we had missed this tour. I called to explain that we would not be on the tour, and was offered a re-schedule, which we took and enjoyed. The stops were exceptional and quite a variety. The driver-guide was humourous and informative. With only a short time for our vacation, it was good to see the countryside. It was a great addition to our Itinerary.

Church, copper, chocolate and waterfalls

PennyKyler, Jul 2022

The Basilica was amazing. It is July and the falls are not running as forceful as they might in March or April or May The stop at the copper tooling company was nice. Learned a lot Our Driver was amazing

Making Memories with Mom

Debra_H, Jul 2022

My mom and I had a great tour of the country. Our driver was very courteous and made sure we had ample time to see everything. He also gave us a tour of the homes along the river and was very informative about Quebec and the surrounding areas. We had a lovely day. He also had a good sense of humor. He planned our trip carefully so as not to be stuck in traffic and miss the sights.

Montmorency Falls is...

Frances_L, Jul 2022

Montmorency Falls is breathtaking as is the cathedral. Our tour guide was wonderful. I thought we would not enjoy a bus tour, but it was great!

Great for multi-generation family trip

Amy_H, Jul 2022

Our tour guide, Alain, was very knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed each stop and felt that there was plenty of time to have a nice visit. There were two teen boys in our party and they enjoyed the trip as well. They even had time to climb to the top of the falls, take some photos, and then be back in time for a soda and report to the bus on time. Seeing a part of the countryside and the island was a great compliment to our stay in Old Quebec. Snacks and restrooms were easy to get to at several stops along the tour. We took the afternoon tour.
