What our students said about Quebec

5.0

Rating: 5/5

One of the least stressful places to visit as a tourist. The whole city is very friendly to tourists and the old city can easily be explored for weeks on foot. Plenty of reasonably priced entertainments and cultural attractions.

Andrina

Rating: 5/5

If you are interested in hiking over the weekend (2-3 days hikes) on trails in the national forest parks nearby, you need an Uber/taxi ride or an own car. Public transport doesn´t work.

Overall the experience was superior to anything I had imagined. The only drawback was that the overall price was higher than I was expecting as the way I had originally calculated the cost from the website prior to contacting you appeared lower. I wasn’t expecting transfer fees and a carbon tax as additional charges. I think you need to say on the website that there are additional fees beyond the teaching contract.
