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 9th * 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. ********* If you are over 6 feet tall please book with another guide ********** 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

Diane did an excellent custom driving tour for us. We are older and cannot do much uneven ground walking. We saw all the main spots plus some off the beaten path ones. We thoroughly enjoyed her narratives about each spot. She is very knowledgeable about Quebec City. Highly recommend her.

We had a great tour with Diane. The driving tour mixed with strategic walking areas was just what we needed. She's very knowledgeable about all things Quebec. She knew a nice place for us to have lunch along the way. Two thumbs up!

There were two of us on a tour of Upper and Lower Quebec with a stop at the falls. Everything went well. Good pace. Really enjoyed it.

Diane did a fabulous job, even considering the crazy circumstances with the bike race that closed down so many streets in Quebec City. She was in constant communication with me, providing different touring options, and making sure we were ok with the changes. Because of the bike race, we had to meet her 1/2 mile away from our ship, but this was fine. Her tour of the outer suburbs was charming - her expertise on the local architecture was obvious. She brought us to a lovely fudgerie where we spent quite a bit of money! Delicious fudge! She brought us back into the city when she knew the streets were opening up - she showed us some of her favorite places. She provided us with a recommendation for a French restaurant to have dinner - and then she took us there directly! Fabulous, fabulous afternoon! Thank you, Diane!
