    Fun Tour

    Fun interactive tour with history and a great way to see the city at night. The actors were very good!

    Poor

    I am writing to express my disappointment regarding the Ghost Tour of Old Quebec that I attended with my wife. We booked this tour expecting an engaging and historical experience, but unfortunately, it fell far short of expectations. We joined the tour specifically to learn about the history of Old Quebec and hear authentic haunted tales tied to the area's past. However, our female guide struggled significantly throughout the evening: Communication & Language Barrier: While we understand that English may not have been her first language, her English communication was not clear or cohesive enough to deliver a proper tour. This made it very difficult for our group to follow along. Lack of Focus & Structure: Rather than delivering structured stories about the history and local legends, the guide frequently lost her train of thought, strayed off-topic, and failed to stay on task with her storytelling. Because of these issues, we were unable to enjoy or absorb the historical context and ghost stories we paid to hear. We appreciate that guiding tours in a second language is challenging, but given the reputation and cost of the tour, we expected a higher standard of delivery and historical narrative. We were going to do another one of your tours in Montreal when we get there but we are going to pass. We hope you will address this feedback with your team. Sincerely, Keith

    Fantastic experience!

    Fantastic, entertaining, and full of morbid (but with some humor) tales of past quebecois criminals. Several actors appear and interact with tour group members. Really fun evening!

    Interactive Street Theatre Crimes in New France: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quebec City.

    How much does Interactive Street Theatre Crimes in New France cost?

    +

    Prices start at $26 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Quebec City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Interactive Street Theatre Crimes in New France take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Quebec City is not rushed.

    Is Interactive Street Theatre Crimes in New France worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 36 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable nightlife in Quebec City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Interactive Street Theatre Crimes in New France?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Interactive Street Theatre Crimes in New France suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Interactive Street Theatre Crimes in New France?

    +

    Around 13 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Quebec City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Quebec City and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Interactive Street Theatre Crimes in New France start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Quebec City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Quebec City?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Quebec City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Old Quebec Classique Walking Tour with Funicular, Uncover Old Quebec: Fun Walking Tour with a guide-Gratuity based, Quebec City Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Quebec City?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Quebec City?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Interactive Street Theatre Crimes in New France?

    +

    Included: Ghost tour and a lot of fun!. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    What languages is Interactive Street Theatre Crimes in New France offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Interactive Street Theatre Crimes in New France?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Interactive Street Theatre Crimes in New France wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
