Nice to meet you! I am Elena 🙂 Bienvenus à Québec ! Here is my story in a few words. I was born and grew up in a country that no longer exists — the USSR. From the age of 10, I was passionate about mountain tourism and rock-climbing, and later began travelling outside our once-closed borders. After university, I combined my love of foreign languages and travel by working as a tourist guide, interpreter, translator, and language teacher (French, English, Turkish, and Russian). Since 2002, I’ve been living in one of the most fascinating, beautiful, best-preserved, and safest cities in the world — Québec City. I love this city and hope to share that passion and knowledge with every visitor I meet. Qualifications & Memberships • Licensed tourist guide • Member of CGAQ • Member of AGTQ • Graduate of Kuban State University — Faculty of Foreign Philology I look forward to welcoming you and helping you discover the magic of Québec!

Dear Guest, I invite you to explore the most French city in North America! You will see, hear and feel the history of Quebec City - the cradle of future Canada. Who were the first Europeans to discover these lands? Who did they meet and how they were received? What was the difference between the conquistadors in South America and the explorers of North America? Why have people on both continents lived for centuries without knowing about each other? How did a 20-minute battle change the history of the whole continent? Chateau Frontenac is the most photographed hotel in the world. Whose idea was to construct it? What for? Why there is a goat in the Citadel? Are there diamonds in Cap Diamant? What is there so special at Place Royale? Are you eager to breathe the air of history and to find out the answers? Then, book this tour - I am here to guide you. Besides, the maps and the pictures I use will help you to understand and to imagine all the events.
- Plains of Abraham, where a 20-minute battle changed the history of the whole continent; - Parliament Building (in 2017 we celebrated 225 years of Parliament system in Canada) and Tourny Fountain; - Chateau Frontenac - one of the most beautiful and famous hotels in the world, which received King George VI and Queen Elizabeth II, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Winston Churchill, Alfred Hitchcock and many other prominent guests; - Dufferin Terrace with its great Saint-Laurence River view; - Basilica Notre-Dame-de-Quebec with its Saint Door - the only one on the continent; - Place Royale where, in 1608, Quebec City was found - Fresco - Petit Champlain And other places. If you wish to prolong the tour, please inquire about a customized tour.
