It was nice to get an introduction to Ile D’orleans in a short period of time without having to rent a car, worry about where to go and how to get there. Our guide Peter was very nice and informative too. The tasting portions were small (but we expected that from reading other reviews), yet the experience was fun. I really enjoyed seeing the “countryside” with apple orchards, small vineyards, pick your own pumpkin farms (we visited in late September), and charming homes on the drive.

Peter was a delightful tour guide. He took us to some wonderful sights and he was a wealth of knowledge. Plus, the weather couldn’t have been nicer.

Tour was great and guide was excellent. E-bikes a little complicated so be sure you are comfortable on a bike on open roads with cars.

It was a great trip! A visit to the island is a must do on a trip to Quebec City and this tour was well worth it!

Great way to spend an afternoon while visiting Quebec City.
