This is an informative tour that provides a nice overview of the history of the citadelle. The weather doesn’t stop the tour and most of it is outside so dress appropriately. Do visit the small museum ahead of your tour as it will enhance your experience.

It was just OK, and I suspect for people with little knowledge of Canadian history, it would’ve been challenging to understand. Compared to other national park/military tours this was fairly lacklustre. Guide was good and informative but the tour itself wasn’t particularly interesting. However, the view from the top is amazing and likely worth it. Be prepared for the outdoors - it is very windy up there and the ground may be wet and mucky.

My sons were fascinated by the tour, and so was I. Our tour guide, Zack, was very knowledgeable and had a good sense of humor. That really helped, since it was extremely hot and this was our last stop of an exhausting day. We learned a lot about the history of Quebec. This is a must-do if you’re visiting Quebec City. (BTW they have tours in both English and French.)

Went for the early military musical parade which was great. Music good and no problem watching. We were due to take a tour but wanted to change the time for that which was not a problem. William was our tour guide. First class job. He was clear and asked all questions. We then watched the changing of the guards.

We arrived at 10:00 am for the band. Amazing half an hour serenade! Then we took the english tour with Julian. He was funny and very informative! Lastly if he museum had great history exhibits. We learned a lot today!

We had a great experience and really enjoyed the tour. The price for admission was very reasonable. The tour was about an hour long and learned a lot about the Citadelle. You also can’t beat the views of the city when visiting. We also enjoyed watching the changing of the guards. Would definitely recommend a visit here when visiting.

If you're in Quebec City, this is a must. We arrived in time for regimental music performance and 10 a.m. on the parade ground. The 30-minute concert was great and not what I was expecting from a military marching band. Yes, they played some traditional stuff, but then they played arrangement of both a Bill Eilish and a Bon Jovi song. The museum highlights the struggles French Canadian members of the armed forces faced and how they overcame them. It looks at the contributions to NATO and UN peacekeeping roles as well as the sacrifices made in WWI and WWII. You can also have you photo taken with mascot goat named Batisse.

I took the guided tour with Brandon in November 2022. Brilliant tour guide and answered all my questions. One question, in particular, was about my ancestor Sir Guy Carleton; he said that there isn't anything on him at the citadel but that he was taught about him in school growing up. Knowing there would be some literature on him, I researched him more. The citadel itself was impressive, but I loved the little museum inside. If I am ever in Quebec, I will definitely visit again!

We visited the Citadelle on July 9. Free parking is available in the Citadelle. You can only visit the Citadel with a guided tour. There is also an opportunity to visit the residence of the Governor General. On certain days the band of the 22nd Royal Regiment plays at 10am. After or before the tour you can visit the museum of the 22nd Royal Regiment.

The Citadelle de Quebec is an interesting place to visit. We bought our tickets ahead of time which saved us some wait time, but it is not necessary. For security reasons, visitors cannot stray from the group and wander about on their own. The guided tour was a disappointment. It felt rushed and we learned somethings, but not that much. I would have liked to read and view the exibits, which looked facinating. We had no time to do this and were told to take a picture if we wanted to instead. We stayed to hear the band play and that was great.
