I was unable to go...
I was unable to go through the experience since my son got sick. I was so disappointed to not be able to do it. I will say that they are very good and understanding though Next time my husband and I travel up we will be doing this experience at this place. I can’t wait

We had a blast! The hike...
We had a blast! The hike was stunningly beautiful. Francois was an amazing guide and his goats were so friendly and made for great traveling companions. We highly recommend! Highlight of our trip.

More Than a Hike!
The experience was truly unique. We love Viator for adventure, quality, and customer service. This experience was professional and personal. The goats were unique, friendly, and fun as was Luna the dog. Raphael and his father were more than professional in their leadership, knowledge, and ability. This tour thrilled young and old (us:) and our granddaughters had as fabulous experience. Thank you!

Absolutely amazing experience!!!
Hiking through gorgeous scenery made even more special by the sweet mountain goats—who added so much charm to the adventure. Our guide was warm, knowledgeable, and engaging, and the delicious stew by the campfire was the perfect finishing touch. An unforgettable experience from start to finish—highly recommend!

Why this scores 78
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Snowshoeing with mountain goats Private activity: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quebec City.
How much does Snowshoeing with mountain goats Private activity cost?
+
Prices start at $84 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 Snowshoeing with mountain goats Private activity take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Snowshoeing with mountain goats Private activity worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 109 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Quebec City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Snowshoeing with mountain goats Private activity?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Snowshoeing with mountain goats Private activity suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Snowshoeing with mountain goats Private activity?
+
Around 38 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Snowshoeing with mountain goats Private activity 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 Snowshoeing with mountain goats Private activity?
+
Included: Dinner. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Snowshoeing with mountain goats Private activity?
+
Meeting location is across the street from the house, parking lot under the electrical tower. Please don't go to the house, we do not love there and it is only used as a reference for the parking lot across the street. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Snowshoeing with mountain goats Private activity 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 Snowshoeing with mountain goats Private activity?
+
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.
