If you like to bring back home some great photos from your vacation, this tour is what you're looking for. I'm a licensed tour guide in Quebec City but also a professional photographer. In addition to giving you a lot of information and knowledge about the city's rich and diverse history, I will bring you to places that are not included in the traditional guided tour circuits. You will find that those places have great photo opportunities and you'll make people jealous when you get back home and show your photos on social media. As I'm a photographer myself, I will be able to give you tips to create beautiful images of the city. Since I've been living here for almost 40 years, I know about all the great photo spots and the little details that will make a difference. When possible, we will choose the tour's starting hour to take advantage of the great light at the end of the day. Walking this city is by far the best way to discover all its little hidden gems.
The itinerary will be a bit different for every tour depending on the starting point but will include the following: * Place Royale, the birthplace of Quebec City * Rue du Petit-Champlain, voted many times as the most beautiful street in Canada * Château Frontenac, a beautiful hotel that has become the symbol of Quebec City * Parc Montmorency, for a great alternative view on Château Frontenac * Terrasse Dufferin, a wonderful boardwalk with stunning views on the St. Lawrence River * Terrasse Dugua-de-Mons, for the greatest view on Château Frontenac, the river, the terrace and Old Quebec * Quebec City Fortifications, with its magnificent gates * Québec's National Assembly, our parliament building inspired by Le Louvre Museum in Paris * Fontaine de Tourny, right in front of the parliament building * Séminaire de Québec, my favorite part of the city, quiet and so charming This is subject to change due to special events in the city or roadwork being done.

This is a walking tour only, our feet will provide all the transportation needed (and they're very good at this!). Quebec City can be hilly but our itinerary will be mostly downhill.
Rue des Carrières, Québec, Québec, G1R 5J5 Canada
I really like to start my tours at the Champlain Monument (on Dufferin Terrace), the heart of Old Quebec, for the history of the city to unfold along the tour. But it it's important for you, I can pick you up anywhere inside the walls of Old Quebec. Please dress comfortably (good walking shoes) and appropriately for the weather. A camera lens or smartphone that has a 24mm to 50mm equivalent focal distance (a 24-70mm lens is ideal but not required). A tripod/monopod is not required.
