Ghost tour in Quebec City to immerse yourself in the world of crime in New France.
We've been on ghost tours in many Canadian cities, but this one will remain in our memories! We followed the ghost of Marie Rivière who transported us into the world of crime in New France. As we walked through the streets, alleys and squares of Old Quebec, we were told sordid (and real) stories, as well as the punishments incurred by criminals (we thank society for having evolved!). Several other tours are offered, including one for Halloween and Christmas in New France. We highly recommend it!
