I learned so much about Quebec's history and culture from this tour. The guide was able to take me on a journey from the founding of the city to the present day. I have a better understanding of the historic relationship between America and Quebec - from the American Revolutionary War to the Treaty of Paris. I would highly recommend this tour.
