Amazing tour, and our guide Michael had an incredible voice and theatricality! Interesting to learn about the more sordid history of the city. Lots of walking, so be prepared for that.
Was guided by one of their tour guides, Thomas. Excellent experience! Especially the last part of the tour. I would recommend going on a hot day to get some chills. The ghost stories gave me the heebie-jeebies!
Micheal is the best! Gave us an awesome retelling of the stories of Old Quebec and was entertaining the whole way through!

What a fun way to get an overview of interesting sites in Québec. Our guide Valérie was engaging and entertaining, and did a great job handling a big group on one of the busiest tourism days of the year. Be prepared to do some walking, but the pregnant woman in our group was able to keep up without problems.

(Translated) It was really great! I would have liked the group to be smaller, but hey! It's a successful activity, that's a good sign. (Original) C'était vraiment super! J'aurais aimé que le groupe soit moins nombreux, mais bon! C'est une activité qui a du succès, c'est bon signe.
(Translated) Thrill guaranteed !!! The guide told us stories with so much feeling. (Original) Frisson garantie !!! La guide nous as raconté des histoire avec tellement sentiment .
Valerie was an amazing tour guide! She was enthusiastic, engaging and I was at the edge of my seat for most of the stories. The last part of the tour, especially left me with chills running down my spine! Yikes! What a nice tour! Recommend!
good tour
I should say that that was far best walking tour I have experienced. Very nice idea, different approach, very kind people. Thanks to Teresa for bringing me in 1800.
This tour was well beyond our expectations and so worth the money. Michael was our tour guide and was absolutely incredible, his story telling was not only engaging but had historical facts. This was the highlight to Cristiano's trip. Thanks again Michael
Was the perfect amount of cheesey and history. Loved hearing different stories about old Quebec and strange things people did. Our guide was interesting and knowledgeable - although when she told the stories it was very scripted either she was newer or they must have to say the exact words. When she told anecdotes or answered questions she was much for personable! Be prepared to walk and go up hills. Pace was slow and little breaks were given to break up the hills. I wish that we could have entered more buildings but i understand. We did go into a dark and old building to end the tour and that was neat!! Would love to go around halloween.
Cool.
Long walk around Quebec. Not particularly spooky. The guide is more of an actor that tells stories about the city. Very cool though. Interesting stories. Be prepared for lots of walking and hills.
(Translated) (Roman Guide :)) Great evening, thank you for making us discover a different aspect of old Quebec! (Original) (Guide Romain :) ) Super soirée, merci de nous avoir fais découvrir un aspect différent du vieux Québec !
The tour was fun and very interesting. Our guide was super friendly and patient when walking up hills with older persons in our group. I recommend this to anyone who likes dark history!
Our tour guide was Thomas! we were hanging on his every word it really sucked you in it was very captivating. He has the most perfect evil scary laugh!!! The use of the pauses between the scary parts of the stories gave me goose bumps, a girl dropped the lid of her popcorn lid on one of them, it was perfect. Love the Quebec history integrated with the ghost stories. %100 would recommend any tourist coming to Quebec
Had a wonderful experience with Thomas! He is very professional, enthusiastic, great at acting and telling stories. He kept the pacing just right for every and had enough details to engage the audience. Highly recommend!
Fun and entertaining tour. A great tour guide full of interesting historical tales about the area. Most of the locations are not overly spooky but the stories that are told can be. The tour also ends in one of the most haunted buildings in Quebec. I wouldn't recommend you take young children due to some of the story content. Note: bring your walking shoes.
fun tour of quebec with interesting stories of quebec's haunting history
Definitely worth the $22. They do a great job telling stories. There is a point where you walk up 3 hills though so wear comfortable shoes.
This tour was reccommended by locals!
This tour took me on an exploration of the old city that I never would have done by myself. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and highly entertaining. A great way to spend a couple of hours in the evening.
This is a must do!!! So much fun and the guide we had was awesome and so well spoken. Truly cool stories????
(Translated) Excellent, to see !!! (Original) Excellent, à voir!!!
Great experience well worth the time and money! Thomas was especially charismatic, knowledgeable, and a great storyteller. A good blend of history and entertainment as well as exclusive access to a few locations you wouldn’t get to see without the tour (I won’t ruin the surprise). Check it out for yourself; you won’t be disappointed!
Marie Rivière and her cast do an amazing job. Very entertaining and knowledgeable. The 2.5h goes by so fast. A great way to see Old Quebec and learn some history.
Wonderful tour, Thomas was great! Would definitely recommend.
We loved our tour! Our tour guide was Ben! He made this tour amazing! Thanks Ben!! Highly recommended!
I married a ghost here.
Our guide Thomas gave a great tour with many stories of the sordid past of Quebec. While not all of the tales were ghost stories, his performance and delivery made them all captivating and informative. It also gave us a great tour of the city, taking us to places we would not have seen otherwise.
This was a lot of fun
(Translated) Enjoyed my evening, it's interesting to see history in such a fun way. Suitable for school-aged children and adults (Original) Bien aimé ma soirée, c'est intéressant de voir l'histoire de manière aussi ludique. Conviens aux enfants d'âge scolaire et aux adultes
Michael made this the best tour! It was an amazingly informative tour with a great narrative with the right amount of intrigue and humour. If you find yourself in Oldé Québec, take this tour as soon as you arrive, you'll have been provided a great historical account of Quebec, as well as a good tour of the land to continue your explorations in the following days... Well done Michael ????????????
when i was like 3 and lived in canada i remember going in there but not having a tour just looking inside, there were moving paintings and it freaked me out i never went back in but i was a baby haha
Going on an evening during the week, is probably the best time to do this. We just finished one this evening. Having a small group and a wonderful tour guide made for a intimate experience of knowledgeable historic tales and bone chilling tales of things that went on in old Quebec. Enjoyed the tour and highly reccomend it!
(Translated) The experience as such is good, but I did not find the narrator / actor very good. He failed to get us into the stories. (Original) L'expérience en tant que tel est bien, mais je n'ai pas trouvé le narrateur/ comédien très bon. Il n'a pas réussi à nous embarquer dans les histoires.
Yes it's a teeny bit cheesy but still fun and great value. The guides are well versed and friendly, and the route chosen is charming. The last stop inside a church was super memorable and creepy! You start down below at the port and end up in the old town near Chateau Frontenac. Just dress warm (we did the 8pm tour in English and for sure it was chilly!), and you'll have a blast! Also note that the meeting point is not at the office, but slightly further along the same street.
My husband and I went to Old Quebec for a mini honeymoon and from the moment we drove into town we were questioning what was with the interesting people wearing cloaks and holding lanterns. We found out that it was a ghost tour... not something one typically does for a romantic honeymoon, but it we were very interested so we called them to get on their wait list. The next day they called us back with availability. Unfortunately this was the night we had already planned to make our "most romantic night", dressing up, reservations for an expensive dinner, staying at the Chateau Frontenac, etc. We decided to do the ghost tour anyway... and wow we're glad we did. The tour was extremely reasonably priced, especially for how long it was. Our tour guide Thomas was such a good performer. watching him and listening to him was like reading a very good book, the way he described stories had be seeing them! Words can't explain how much fun we had and if we ever go back to Old Quebec for another holiday, you can bet we'll do this tour again! We've already recommended it to everyone who has asked us about our mini-honeymoon.
(Translated) Our guide was Guy-Philippe and we loved it! The group was too large for our liking. It spoke a lot and spoiled the mood a bit. I found that the 90 min went super quickly and I would have taken more! The historical side is super interesting, the ghost side could be even more present! (Original) Notre guide était Guy-Philippe et nous avons adoré! Le groupe était trop nombreux à notre goût. Ça parlait beaucoup et gâchait l'ambiance un peu. J'ai trouvé que le 90 min a passé super rapidement et j'en aurais pris encore! Le côté historique est super intéressant, le côté fantôme pourrait être plus présent encore!
(Translated) I know Old Quebec well, but this guided tour accompanied by ghost stories made me discover another surprising facet of the city. I don't remember if our guide told us his name (a bearded man with brown hair who is a little gray), but he did an admirable acting job. His very low-key, silent and mysterious air between places suddenly transforms into a captivating storyteller who even borrows the voices of the characters from his stories (he managed to get me smiles on several occasions). It was captivating and very entertaining, I could have listened to it for hours on end. Well done. (Original) Je connais pourtant bien le Vieux-Québec mais cette visite guidée accompagnée d'histoires de fantômes m'a fait découvrir une autre facette surprenante de la ville. Je ne me rappelle pas si notre guide nous a dit son nom (un barbu aux cheveux brun qui grisonne un peu), mais il a fait un travail d'acteur admirable. Son air très discret, silencieux et mystérieux entre les lieux se transforme soudainement en un raconteur captivant qui emprunte même la voix des personnages de ses histoires (il a réussi à me décroché des sourires à plusieurs reprises). Il a été captivant et très divertissant, j'aurais pu l'écouter encore durant des heures. Bravo.
Our guide was Michael and he did a fine job. The tour was mostly fun and just a little corny, but that's typical of these things. But, what was not typical was the very brisk pace expected from all as we dashed from one site to another in order to stay within the allotted time; it will likely be very demanding for most people even slightly physically challenged. (As my wife is) We understood the tour required moving between the lower and upper towns, but we didn't expect to have to move up the steep and winding streets at such a pace. There *REALLY* should be some caution in the tour description for potential guests who are older or slightly physically constrained. *Be aware that if you join this tour you will be expected to keep up a very brisk pace while climbing steep cobblestone streets. (After coming here to write this, I noticed some previous reviews that also expressed the very same concern. But, still no effort has been made by the tour company to modify the tour's description) Also, during our tour, a mother and young daughter had to leave due to gory retellings of historic events. To be fair, our guide warned the group just prior to the gory details, but again, this is something that should be cautioned by this tour company -- in advance.
great walking tour of old QC. learned lots from the knowledgeable guides. well done!
Great tour! Nice to learn the dark history that no one ever talks about.
Absolutely loved the Ghost Tour of Quebec! Our guide Thomas was fantastic - he was animated, enthusiastic and we were all hooked on his every word! He was very accommodating of mobility issues and always made sure that everyone was together before starting the next story at the next location. Excellent guide. The price was right too - 5 stars!!!
It was great, Thomas was a great host and did an amazing job recounting the stories of The history of this amazing city. Bravo! 10/10 definitely recommend.
Thomas was a fantastic guide, full of spirit and a genuinely fun storyteller. Would recommend!
(Translated) Very fun, thank you for this beautiful evening. (Original) Très amusant, merci pour cette belle soirée.
I love Quebec City and have been there before, but had never taken this tour. I was aware of some of the stories told, such as the sinking of the Empress of Ireland. I did not know of the darker sides that Michael, our tour guide, related. He had a very commanding voice and the evening was so interesting that we were stopped a couple of times as we walked about the cobble stoned streets and asked for information as to how others could join such a tour. It takes you into places that you wouldn't normally see and at times that those places are closed. It reveals tales that they might not tell you...such as the public hangings. At the end, we went into a church and that's where I snapped my photo, more for a lark than anything else. I was surprised at what I got back. The people in the group with us were from various places, mostly in the U.S. They were a fun bunch. As I said, Michael was very engaging. I would highly recommend that people do this tour.
Had a great tour of the city! Thomas is a great storyteller and kept us well entertained. The tour is honestly a must I feel. My 2nd visit to the City and my 2nd tour with Ghost tours of Quebec. Hearing the history as you see the sights in such a fantastic and historic city is amazing! 10/10 def recommend
The cast of creepy chracters was phenomenal! I really enjoyed the tour and the chilling stories they invoke. It was not only well acted and very fun but interesting and thought provoking. Thomas and the very hilarious yet also terrifying members of the tour only added to the experience! I felt continuously involved in the plot of the characters and was onboard for every step of the way! I loved it.
Valerie was great!!! It was definitely entertaining and a good way to spend an evening. I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting! The only thing I would say is that $20 per person may be a bit much, but honestly I don't regret spending it on this tour.
Good information and length but our guide sucked... Our tour guide introduced himself as an actor, not a historian so he might not be able to answer some questions, his job is to entertain... I assumed that meant he might be able to answer... Something... Off script. He knew the script incredibly well, even apologized once for not repeating the words exactly but he only talked when he would arrive at a script location, the five minute walls in between each stop he spent on silence. A good tour guide should be able go off script in between and entertain or at least be able to answer something... Most questions the group asked he ignored, as if he didn't hear them and the ones we made sure he heard he had no answers, questions that should have been pretty common. If you get a good guide you'll probably have a great experience as it is very interesting content and you get to see some great sites around the city.
First, our guide, Thomas, did an amazing job even though he wasn't feeling the best. This is a great activity to do after all the museums close. I got a great little tour of the city, learned a lot of history, and while it wasn't so scary that I wouldn't sleep after, I was a little creeped out from time to time. Thomas, the guide, did a great job at bringing the stories to life and answering any questions we threw at him. Once the tour ends you'll wind up in a perfect spot to get a drink or dessert. Highly recommend!
when i was like 3 and lived in canada i remember going in there but not having a tour just looking inside, there were moving paintings and it freaked me out i never went back in but i was a baby haha
Great tour. Thomas was awesome!
(Translated) Excellent time !! More actor than historian, but that history was beautiful, young and old alike spent a memorable evening. (Original) Excellent moment !! Plus comédien qu' historien, mais que l'histoire fût belle les petits et les grands ont passé une soirée mémorable.
Just a series of stories told dramatically, less about haunted places or ghost sightings. I was hoping to be taken to a building, and told about the ghost that lives there. not my kind of ghost tour, but the guide was super entertaining and dramatic. Ends with a really cool inside look at an old Church in the dark.
Excellent tour guide, fascinating stories about the darker history of Quebec. Includes a surprise visit at the end which topped off the evening. However, we had a stroller in our group which had to leave halfway through the tour. Bringing one is certainly not recommended. And I hope management discourages the use of them in the future. Also, you need to be in decent shape to walk on the steeper parts. Definitely worth the admission though!
(Translated) Superb experience The guide was on top, to do. (Original) Superbe expérience. Le guide était au top, à faire.
I recommend it this tour is fun and educational at the same time.
Didn't find it scary at all!
(Translated) Excellent way to discover another facet of Quebec. Thanks to Cassandra for guiding us so well. (Original) Excellente façon de découvrir une autre facette de Québec. Merci à Cassandra de nous avoir si bien guidé.
Amazing tour. What a fun way to discover the city. Highly recommend. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and a great entertainer/performer.
(Translated) Terrible service no respect for distance not good plate really disappointed but faithful even had the coconut chain its all the same (Original) Service affreux aucun respect de la distanciation assiette pas bonne vraiment déçu mais fidèle a eu même la chaine coco son tous pareille
(Translated) We made the trip to the Upper Town, it was great to be off the beaten track. Valérie our guide / storyteller is passionate and what to say about the way she brings the facts Wow !! I recommend this activity because we are still learning about our beautiful city of Quebec. (Original) Nous avons fait le trajet de la Haute-Ville c'etait super d être hors des sentiers battus. Valérie notre guide/conteuse est passionnée et que dire de la façon qu'elle apporte les faits Wow!! Je recommande cette activité car nous apprenons encore sur notre belle ville de Québec.
(Translated) Very interesting and entertaining! (Original) Très intéressant et divertissant !
Booked a tour last minute and we were so happy we did! Michael was our guide and he was amazing! He is an excellent story teller and we really appreciated the emphasis on historical accuracy throughout!
(Translated) Excellent way to discover Quebec otherwise, a unique serious experience with a splendid setting and a guide (Michel for our part) who made us live the legends and various facts as well as the history of this magnificent city! (Original) Excellent moyen pour découvrir Québec autrement, une experience unique grave à un décor splendide et un guide (Michel pour notre part) qui nous a fait vivre les légendes et faits divers ainsi que l'histoire de cette magnifique cité !
(Translated) We loved our guide was great !!! She told the stories so well that we walked in. And these really beautiful there! Those on that have to go back there for the others to browse. (Original) Nous avons adoré notre guide était super !!! Elle racontait les histoire tellement bien que l'on entrais de dans. Et ces vraiment beau la bas! Ces sur qu'ont y retourne pour les autres parcourt.
(Translated) I have done the tours several times and each guide has their own way of telling stories which means that the experience is renewed each time. (Original) J'ai fait les circuits a plusieurs reprise et chaques guides a sa propre façon de raconter les histoires ce qui fait que l'expérience se renouvelle a chaque fois.
(Translated) Last Saturday, October 18th, we wanted to take a guided tour of Old Quebec with "The Ghost Tours of Quebec" but we hesitated because the weather turned cold in the winds and the rain. We finally went there WITHOUT any regret: very interesting visit and excellent guide; we recommend this activity regardless of the outside temperature. Thank you (Original) Samedi soir dernier le 18 octobre , nous voulions faire la visite guidée du Vieux-Québec avec " Les Visites Fantômes de Québec " mais nous hésitions car le temps a viré au froid dans les vents et la pluie . Nous y sommes finalement allé SANS AUCUN regret : visite super intéressante et guide excellent ; nous recommandons cette activité quelle que soit la température extérieure . Merci
(Translated) We saw nothing because everything was rented ... visit the pink salon nothing else (Original) Nous avons rien vue car tout etait loué...visite du salon rose rien d'autre
(Translated) Thank you Cassandra for this moment full of stories and humor I will do it again with my wife. Continue like that. See you soon. Didier (Original) Merci Cassandra pour ce moment plein d'histoires et d'humour je le referai avec ma femme. Continuez comme ça. À bientôt. Didier
Great stories and locations on the tour. But the hills on the roads we travelled were ridiculously steep, should have a disclaimer. Would recommend to the physically fit
Very good tour guide/ actress . She was loud and clear and made sure everyone was well entertained . We also got to visit a haunted church which was really good
(Translated) Really good evening thanks to Thomas. (Original) Vraiment bien comme soirée merci à Thomas.
The experience was so enjoyable, informative and entertaining.
Tour Details - August 17th 2017 8pm English Tour Guide - Michael WOW! what a great addition to our Quebec trip. For 20 bucks per person we had a guided story telling of haunted past events around Old Quebec. Michael put on a great performance and was an excellent guide. My wife and I brought two kids both aged 6 years and our nine month old baby. Old Quebec is a tough city to navigate with a stroller let alone trying to keep up with a tour however we were lucky and had help from people on the tour which made navigating easier. Hands down a great experience and for the price the best dollar for dollar entertainment value.
(Translated) Good visit! First visit for our guide Emmanuelle! She was very theatrical and a very good storyteller. We enjoyed the visit very much. Just long enough and just enough stories. To do! (Original) Bonne visite! Première visite pour notre guide Emmanuelle! Elle était très théatral et très bonne raconteuse. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié la visite. Juste assez long et juste assez d'histoires. A faire!
The tour was quite long, around 2 hours. It was interesting to hear the city's history through a "scary" point of view but overall it wasn't anything special as a tour.
(Translated) Great, another way to discover old Quebec. Very entertaining with a brown culture bonus. (Original) Génial, une autre manière de découvrir le vieux Québec. Très divertissant avec un brun de culture en bonus.
Had a great time. Went with my husband and two children. They enjoyed the stories. It rained at the end if our tour which added to the spooky ambiance.
This tour was hilarious. Not your typical ghost tour.
We had such a great time on this tour. Best $22 each spent all weekend! Learned a bunch about the history of the town and was enjoyable even though it rained for the first half hour!
(Translated) Just make reservations For later polite staff who answered our questions I will get back to you with details later after our group's visit. (Original) Simplement fais des réservations Pour plus tard personnel polie qui s répondu à nos questions je vais vous revenir avec des détails plus tard après la visite de notre groupe
(Translated) The guide Denis is very interesting, he has a good voice and is very expressive thank you (Original) Le guide Denis est très intéressant,il a une bonne voix et est très expressif merci
(Translated) Superb evening it ended very well the day very teacher, we drink his words when he tells thank you so much (Original) Superbe soirée ça fini tres bien la journée très prof, on boit ses paroles quand il conte merci beaucoup
Not that scary.. but try to visit in the night. But midnight it won't be open
(Translated) I really liked our guide Nadia! She was very expressive, and I really liked that she told us stories from other people who live in the village !! I have to admit that visiting the church in the dark gave us friezes !!! Thanks again:) (Original) J’ai beaucoup aimé notre guide Nadia! Elle était tres expressive, et j’ai bien aimé qu’elle nous raconte des histoire vécu par d’autre personne qui on habiter dans le village!! Je doit admettre que visité l’église dans la noirceur nous a donné des frisons!!! Merci encore:)
(Translated) Original way to visit the lower town of Quebec off the beaten track. Excellent actor. Group of 26 a little too big It would be nice to see shadows and red eyes appear in a window As well as hearing sounds. Unforgettable experience to live. Thanks to our guide Michel who was excellent. Visit on July 27, 2017 .. (Original) Façon originale de visiter la basse ville de Québec hors des sentiers battus. Excellent comédien. Groupe de 26 un peu trop gros Il serait agréable de voir apparaître des ombres et des yeux rouges dans une fenêtre Ainsi qu'entendre des sons. Expérience inoubliable à vivre. Merci à notre guide Michel qui a été excellent. Visite du 27 juillet 2017..
(Translated) Tour done with Mélanie. A very nice experience, I recommend! (Original) Tour fait avec Mélanie. Une très belle expérience, je recommande!
(Translated) Very disappointed, visit canceled the same day; our sick guide. No replacement, no backup plan except postponing our visit to another day. I come from outside Quebec, being already there I had a very bad surprise. (Original) Très déçue, visite annulée la journée même; notre guide malade. Pas de remplaçant, pas de plan de rechange sauf remettre notre visite une autre journée. Je viens de l’extérieur de Québec, étant déjà sur place j’ai eu une très mauvaise surprise.
Marlène is excellent!!

(Original) Excellente expérience! Je ne compte plus le nombre de fois que j'ai participé à un tour. J'amène chaque ami et famille qui sont de passage à Québec. Un incontournable!
Joseph was great. Very knowledgable. Would definitely recommend when visiting Quebec city.
We had a great tour!! Fun, interactive group. Interesting and saw a part of old quebec we didn't know existed.
(Translated) We just spent an excellent evening in the company of Nadia the actress / storyteller. She is passionate about her job and her stories and knows how to make us travel through the streets of old Quebec. My husband was not a ghost lover, yet we got caught and we loved it! You may be discovering places in Quebec that you don't know. Thank you so much. Benjamin and Sophia (Original) Nous venons de passer une excellente soirée en compagnie de Nadia la comédienne/conteuse . Elle est passionnée par son métier et par ses ces histoires et sait nous faire voyager au travers des rues du vieux Québec. Mon mari n'était pas un amateur de fantômes, pourtant nous nous sommes fait prendre au jeu et nous avons adoré ! Vous allez peux être découvrir des endroits de Québec que vous ne connaissez pas. Merci mille fois. Benjamin et Sophia
Great tour and great stories. Tour guide Sarah was fine. Website says tour is 90 minutes but it is longer than that, and the only way to come close to the 90-minute mark is to speed walk between stops. Should really be a warning on the website about the speed at which you must walk and the number of steep hills you must climb in a row. If you are asthmatic and it is a humid day, make sure you have your inhalers. I almost didn't make it, and had to use my medications about two-thirds of the way into the tour. Would have given it 5 stars if we weren't so rushed between stops.
