Let me introduce myself, I am a people-oriented and resourceful person, born in the magnificent Quebec City. I studied in a private college and I obtained a Quebec Diploma of College Studies in Tourism. I am a Historical Tour Guide who has many years of experience. Having strong communication skills in English, I really enjoy meeting tourists from all around the world and I am very enthusiastic when I talk about New France History. A good time to visit Quebec City is end of May and June, it's not too hot and not crowded. It is possible to do a Young Family Tour with a maximum of two young children + 2 adults. If you want to see a lot of details in Quebec City or Levis City's architecture here are four Walking Tours : * Place Royale, Ferry Boat, City of Levis Private Walking Tour (Magnificent view of Quebec City on the other side of the Saint-Lawrence River) * The Fortified Quebec Private Walking Tour * The Best of Old Quebec Walking Tour * The Winter Walking Tour of Old Quebec (From November 1st to the end of April, you will need warm clothes) I also offer four Car Tours : This year (2026), I will not do any Car's Tours after October 31st * Orleans' Island /Montmorency Falls * Kabir Kouba Waterfall and the Wendake Natives' Village * The Montmorency Fall and the Sainte-Anne-Basilica * The Highlights of Quebec. * Traditions meet modernism ********** Please note that all my Car Tours are for a maximum of 3 adult passengers, I own a car not a Minivan ********** Compared to other cities in the world, Quebec City is not very old; however, it is the oldest city north of Florida (St. Augustine being the oldest city in North America, founded in 1565) Please note that I will not do two tours on the same day, so you will have a good quality tour. Also, if possible, don't book at the last minute. * Licensed Quebec City Tour Guide since 2004 * Diploma of Collegiate Studies in Tourism * In 2004, I was a nominee for best student in English Class * I have been a nominee for best student in Tourism Class * Province of Quebec Authorised Tourists Driver

This 3-hour, Private Walking Tour provides an interesting perspective of Old Quebec. End of May and June are very good times to visit Old Quebec because the city is not crowded and it's not hot. While recounting short anecdotes , you will enjoy hearing about the daily lives of our ancestors and how the city has evolved. You will appreciate Old Quebec historical and romantic aspects as the 18-century houses and the prestigious Château Frontenac. You will enjoy the breathtaking view on a Terrace ! As we walk in the narrow streets of Historical Lower Town (Place Royale) you will have the chance to see where Canada was founded in 1608, and hear my interpretation regarding 417 years of History. You will appreciate the historical figures of two magnificent wall paintings. If you have a Walking Issue, please tell me before the tour, this way I will have time to plan a different itinerary.
