Old Quebec Must See private walking tour, the beautiful historic district.

We will see not only the most important historical sites, but also incredible scenery. I will show and describe the historical sites of the Lower town, near the Saint-Lawrence river. This is where Champlain landed more than 410 years ago to found one the oldest cities north of Mexico. We will be waking on the old cobblestone streets along the typical district with houses and buildings from the 17th thru the 20th century. The upper town (Charles Dickens described Québec as 'The Gibraltar of North America') shows the strategic military importance of the site and explains why the French settled here in 1608. This area is full of buildings relating to the political, military, religious and educational institutions of the French and British colonies on the site. We will also view the incredible vista on the St Lawrence estuary near the Château Frontenac, probably the most photographed hotel in the world.
