An elevated private experience — vibrant, refined, unforgettable ⸻ A True French-Canadian Experience Bonjour, My name is Claudine — and yes, if you are looking for that authentic French-Canadian accent, you just found the right guide. I was born and raised in Montréal, in a French-Canadian family, and I bring not only professional expertise, but a true local identity to every experience. This is not something learned — it is something lived. ⸻ Where Passion Meets Expertise I am a certified tour guide in both Montréal and Québec City, with formal training from Collège Mérici, the ITHQ — Institut de Tourisme et d’Hôtellerie du Québec and the University of Montréal. Since 2014, My career also includes working as a Tour Leader-Manager across Canada and the United States, often combining guiding with professional driving — ensuring a seamless, well-orchestrated experience at every level. What defines my work is simple: a genuine love for people, for history, and for creating meaningful moments. ⸻ A Dynamic, Fully Personalized Experience From the moment we begin, your day is designed around you — your interests, your pace, your expectations. Some guests are passionate about history. Others are curious about food, culture, or hidden places. Most want a perfect balance of everything. I adapt continuously throughout the day, allowing the experience to evolve naturally — with the right stops, at the right time, always in the right rhythm. Nothing feels rushed. Nothing feels generic. Everything feels just right. ⸻ Travel in Comfort and Style Your experience takes place in my luxury SUV: Hyundai Palisade Ultimate Calligraphy — fully equipped for private touring. • Dual panoramic sunroofs • Excellent visibility from all seats • Integrated microphone system for clear guiding • Quiet, smooth, and refined ride Ideal comfort: 2 to 4 guests Maximum capacity: 7 passengers (rear seating is more compact) For airport transfers or travel between Montréal and Québec City, luggage is comfortably accommodated for up to 3 guests. For larger groups, additional luggage, or special needs (including wheelchair accessibility), a larger vehicle can be arranged to ensure the same level of comfort and quality. ⸻ Experience the City — With Energy and Depth In Montréal and especially in Québec City — the birthplace of Canadian history — every place has meaning. I bring these places to life through engaging storytelling, local insight, and a natural, lively approach that makes history easy to understand and enjoyable. You don’t just visit — you connect. ⸻ Signature Experiences Each tour is tailored, with a wide range of refined experiences available: • Food, wine and craft beer tours • Fine dining in 5-star restaurants (lunch or dinner with private return service) • Montréal Underground City and Metro (perfect for extreme weather days) • Religious heritage tours (Saint Joseph’s Oratory, basilicas, cathedrals) • Scenic drives, local markets, and hidden gems Every detail is curated to elevate your day. ⸻ Exclusive Day Trips Extend your journey beyond the city with private excursions: • Ottawa — Canada’s capital (2 hours from Montreal) • Thousand Islands — spectacular landscapes • Eastern Townships and Lanaudière (summer season) • Canyon Sainte-Anne (45 minutes from Québec City) • Baie-Saint-Paul (1h30 from Quebec City) • Casino de Charlevoix (2h30 from Quebec City) • Tadoussac — whale watching (3h30 from Quebec City) Long days — but truly unforgettable. ⸻ A Professional You Can Trust Your experience is supported by full licensing and professional credentials: • Licensed Tour Guide — Montréal and Québec City • Member of AGTQ, APGT and CGAQ • Licensed Tour Leader-Manager (Québec Province) • Licensed motorcoach and carriage driver • Film industry driver (AQTIS 514 IATSE) Fully insured with commercial permits and official limousine/taxi status (SAAQ), ensuring safety, legality, and peace of mind at all times. ⸻ A Higher Standard of Private Touring What makes the difference is not only what you see — but how you feel throughout the day. Relaxed. Engaged. Perfectly taken care of. This is where experience, intuition, and attention to detail come together — to create something truly exceptional. ⸻ Let’s Create Your Experience Whether you are visiting for the first time or returning to discover more, I will design a day that reflects exactly what you are looking for — and elevate it beyond expectations. Dynamic. Personal. Refined. I look forward to welcoming you.

Claudine is extremely knowledgeable about Montreal and Quebec. My husband has limited mobility and she was very kind and accommodating to him. We saw so much in our time with her. I recommend her highly.

Claudine was excellent. So glad we chose her. She provided a very complete tour of the Quebec City area and provided interesting historical detail. Claudine was sensitive to what we wanted to see/do and more than willing to make adjustments to her plan. She provided several opportunities for us to walk the streets to explore a little on our own which we enjoyed. Claudine is very pleasant and passionate about what she does. I highly recommend her!

Your Quebec City tour itinerary

Your 8-hour experience begins in Québec City, exploring Place Royale, where Canadian history began, before continuing through Petit-Champlain, Rempart Street, Place d’Armes, Dufferin Terrace, Château Frontenac, St-Louis Gate, the Plains of Abraham, the National Assembly, and Grande-Allée. A 1-hour lunch stop is smoothly integrated into the itinerary, with time for photos and a relaxed stroll. Next, the route leads to the spectacular Montmorency Falls, where you will stop at the base of the 83-metre waterfall (entrance not included) for unforgettable views. The journey continues onto Île d’Orléans, where the scenery changes to rolling farmlands, river panoramas, and charming villages. Depending on your preferences, enjoy stops at the Sainte-Pétronille chocolate factory, a vineyard in Saint-Pierre, and, if time permits, the maritime village of Saint-Laurent with its jam factory, creating a perfectly paced and flexible day.
