2.Christmas Magic in Old Quebec

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 61 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $28

Review of Quebec City’s Christmas Magic walking tour, with Old Quebec sights, market samples, hot chocolate, winter tips, value, and honest drawbacks.

“Tour had some good information but not as much overall Canadian history as would have been nice. Some parts of the tour felt boring and unnecessary when we walked to an old building (now apartments) to talk about a nun that was not that significant. The kids were easily bored and half our group faded out before the tour was over. We did not tour the markets or have a treat from the market as advertised, just some hot chocolate from a stand near a hotel. It just overall was not that engaging.”

3.Victoria and Butchart Gardens Christmas Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 43 reviews · from $203

Review of the Victoria and Butchart Gardens Christmas Tour from Vancouver, covering ferries, free time, lights, price, timing, and practical tips.

“Very long day and a lot of travel for the relatively short time in Victoria and Buchart Gardens. Both are great destinations but I think this is too much for a one day tour.”
