You may pay with your credit card using my Square terminal or by cash at the end of the tour.
How do we prepare for a winter visit?
Temperatures in Quebec City range between 0 to -30C (32 to -22F). We can also have up to 3 meters (9 feet) of snow. Therefore, you must prepare accordingly. Bring warm boots, extra pairs of socks (merino wool are fantastic), sweaters, warm coats, mittens, scarves, hats (wool are preferable). If you don’t have all the ''equipment'', you can easily buy it in local shops. I also don’t recommend high heel boots, since Quebec is built on a cliff and there are a lot of hills to walk up and down. Even though the City maintains the streets regularly, some sidewalks may be a bit icy and slippery.
If you have questions, I have answers!
