      Good presentation of the Quebec history of the lower area and the upper area but very limited info of other areas in the historical area such as shopping , 3/4 of the tour took place on the upper deck around the hotel as well as the church and monastery, by the time we got to the lower section we had 10 minutes left on the tour

      Our guide, Dominique was passionate about the history, architecture and food of Quebec. She was proud of her heritage and her city and was enthusiastic about sharing her passion with her guests. The group was a good size so we could hear everything and she managed to keep us moving and together, even though there were road closures due to the Popes visit. There were so many interesting places highlighted that we could go back to visit to explore in more depth.
