We had a great time in our tour. We got to see many attractions and also had free time to do whatever else we wanted. There were numerous options available for the group. Our guide, Marilyn, and driver Mike, we're wonderful. They were very knowledgeable and made the tour fun.

The hotels were excellent, great rooms, very clean. The hotel in Quebec is located too far from the city. Would have been nicer to more central.
