My husband and I went on this tour and thoroughly enjoyed it. We are foodies. The tour started at an Italian restaurant where we had a delicious salad, then in our next location we had French onion soup. Both great, but the last 2 stops were phenomenal. The food at the Continental and the dessert at Le Clan were out of this world. Wonderful tour

Truly delicious food even for a self proclaimed food snob. Final restaurant was Michelin Bib Gourmand. Marie was an absolutely lovely host, full of vibrancy and knowledge and history and fun. Attended solo but felt like I was out with friends. Highlight of my stay in Quebec City and cannot recommend enough.

This was the absolute highlight of our trip. Our guide, Luis, was so knowledgeable and personable. The stops on the tour were perfectly chosen, and the food was beyond delicious. Cannot recommend this tour enough. Our first stop was at Va Bene for a delicious fresh tomato salad served on burrata. We then stopped at Archibald for some delicious French onion soup. Then it was on to Le Continental for some fabulous flambéd shrimp. The last stop was at Le Clan, a fabulous restaurant that prides itself on using only Quebec or local ingredients- farm to table concept. We had an arctic char that melted in your mouth followed by a their take on a bread pudding type dessert. Every restaurant paired their dish with wine or beer. All in all, this was an excellent experience. We told the owner of the tour company Emilie that we were celebrating my recent retirement and we definitely felt like VIPs on this tour!

Marc_a, Dec 2025
My husband and I did the Quebec food tour and LOVED it! Nice variety of restaurants, good drinks, solid food and overall a must do experience if you want to eat your way through Old Quebec and see the town on foot. Since it was early in the week before the crowds arrived, we actually ended up with a private tour. Our tour guide Etienne was phenomenal! Educated about the area, great recommendations, very personable and fun to get to know. He made the experience a true highlight of our trip!

Great tour!

Delores_G, Dec 2025

Fun activity with friends

Paula_M, Nov 2025

If you’re on the fence, BOOK IT

Enjoyable evening with Marie

Jennifer_F, Nov 2025
Marie, our guide was a true delight. She was informative, fun and knows great food. We enjoyed short walking tours between restaurants. The restaurants chosen for the tour were charming and comfortable with friendly accommodating staff. I would highly recommend this tour for foodies and non-foodies alike.

Troy_M, Oct 2025
The food was wonderful and the tour guides are very knowledgeable. A full meal with paired drinks was provided along with some history. Worth the price and a great way to spend three hours in Quebec city.

Delightful food tour

Ruby_T, Oct 2025
Surprisingly good! Carol was a phenomenal tour guide and gave us good tips of what to see that may suit our needs. The food were exceptionally good. The price of the tour is truly a steal!

Amazing night

schreijh, Oct 2025
Had a tour with Vincent and he was great. He provided us with so much history about Quebec that alone would have been worth the tour……but the food was beyond amazing. His knowledge and relationship with the restaurants helped make our food portion of the tour so amazing. Wish we could bottle this tour and get the same service at so many places we have visited!

A must do in Quebec if you enjoy great food

Rick_D, Oct 2025
Absolutely the best food tour we have been on in any city. Our guide had selected 4 amazing restaurants for our 5 course meal. Every restaurant had fabulous food and wine/beer. In fact we returned to 2 of the restaurants for a full meal on other days we were there. In addition her commentary as we walked was super informative and very interesting.

Great progressive food tour

Rodney_M, Oct 2025
Great walking progressive food tour. The tour took us on a walk in old Quebec City providing great history of the area with stops at 4 restaurants for a progressive 5 course meal with alcohol pairing. Maria / Mary was an amazing tour guide. My only other thing is I would not recommend it if you have mobility issues. We walked over a mile on older streets some with cobblestone. There was also a couple of restaurants with steep stairs and I did not see an elevator. Loved the experience!

Excellent Tour Guide plus Great Food & Drink

Robert_F, Oct 2025
Carrol was an excellent tour guide. She had very nice details about all areas. She also knew where to eat & drink, which I plan to use tomorrow…had too much to eat & drink today. Overall, it was a great tour! BTW, we also had very special company in Dave & Karen. Thank you for everything Viator.

Foodie in Quebec City

Denise_P, Oct 2025
Be ready to indulge. The food was delicious especially the panzanella salad. Fresh and wonderful! French onion soup could have had more broth for me but really good! The flambed shrimp was amazing at the oldest restaurant in the city. The Michelin star restaurant served a bowl of some sort. I was not a fan but everyone else loved it. The dessert was pretty good.

Great Experience

Christina_S, Oct 2025

Great food. Small group tour- 12 in our group. Tour guide was very informative. Easy walk and funicular ride was nice.

Fantastic

Jack_B, Sep 2025
Etienne took our group to four great restaurants over three hours, sharing some city and culinary history along the way. He was good, too, asking about any food allergies. The first stop featured an incredibly fresh and tasty salad, the second soup, and the third and fourth small entrees. The final stop also included a nice dessert.

Eat and Enjoy

Brenda_W, Sep 2025
Expensive and well worth it. Our guide gave a little history of Old Quebec. Meals were gourmet and the small group size was just right. We toured in the rain and it was still our best tour

Awesome tour!

Anita_S, Sep 2025
Go hungry!! Do not even grab something small prior to the event. You will regret it! Our guide - Luis - was fantastic. His passion for the history of Quebec City and Quebec itself made the tour even more interesting. Yes, there is walking, but nothing most people can’t do. They start in lower old town and it ends in upper old town. We highly recommend this tour!!
