Christmas Day 2024.
we had reserved this tour for Christmas day.
we were excited to see the sites we were unable to see in our first 2 days walking in the freezing weather.
unfortunately, Christmas eve, my wife sprained her ankle while exiting a coffee shop. fortunately, the hotel provided us a wheelchair. yeah.
the morning of our tour, i wheeled my wife up the slushy hill from our hotel room and arrived at the meeting point almost 15 minutes early. i was unsure how long that was going to take due to the freezing cold temps, and the icy and slushy walkways and streets. good news, it was a sun shiny day. i parked her in the sun. you would not believe it was about 10 degrees out.
after seeing a small bus pull up to the meeting point, met with the driver, Dan.
a very pleasant local man. i expressed our position of her injury. he stated no problem, have her sit anywhere and we can stow the wheelchair in the back.
he was very accommodating.
we started our tour and without hesitation, Dan began rattling off historic facts of the city. we've been on many tours, but i was so preoccupied with my wife's ankle, i was surprised. whatever, Dan hit all of the major attractions of the historic city. his dialogue was good, but with a french accent. listen carefully to his story of the "broken neck stairs."
he also displayed superior driving skills over the narrow streets, the heavy amount of traffic and the icy and slushy roads. His knowledge of the city is exemplary.
he answered everyones questions thoroughly and with french pride.
we ended up at the Montmorency Falls. this was the only disappointment of the tour. they had closed many areas, i spose because of the freezing weather or christmas.
and the fact that my wife just stayed on the bus due to her ankle.
I got to see how beautiful they were!
this was not the tours fought, just making observations.
upon returning to the staring point, Dan offered to drive us directly to our hotel. perfect!
Dan went above and beyond to ensure our safety and comfort.
Thanks so much Dan!
