Bonjour! My name is Marie-Pierre, and welcome to my hometown, Québec City! There’s so much to explore here, and it’s not just about the Château Frontenac! Québec City is rich in history, culture, and amazing stories that I can't wait to share with you. I’ve lived in and around Québec City all my life, and I’m so proud to call it home. I studied Tourism at Collège Mérici, and after graduating, I started running my own tours as a freelance guide. Honestly, I have the best job in the world! Meeting people from all over is such an incredible experience. On my tours, you’ll discover Québec City's vibrant culture, its economy, its people, and the challenges it faces as a modern city. I’ll take you to the main historical sites and plenty of hidden gems, connecting the past with the present. I’m also a blogger, so I love giving recommendations on the best local restaurants, pubs, and attractions. Helping my guests plan their trips is like being a hotel concierge, and I love it! After our tour, you’ll feel confident navigating the city on your own and understand why Québec City is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Plus, you’ll get to know a local – that personal connection is really important to me! So, grab your walking shoes, and let’s explore! - I studied the tourism industry for 3 years at Collège Mérici and have a degree in Tourism. - I am a licensed Québec City tour guide. - I’m a proud member of the Québec City Tour Guide Association. - I absolutely love photography, and I'll be thrilled to share my favorite photo spots with you. *Just a quick note: I’m not a driver, so all my tours are walking tours. The only exception is the "Step-On Tour," where I join the group on their coach bus. À bientôt!/ See you soon! -Marie

We had a wonderful photo tour with Marie! We have a mix of walking abilities in our small group and Marie was flexible and accommodating regarding route and pace. We learned a lot and stopped at lovely viewpoints. I appreciated Marie's sharing of Quebecois history and culture!
From booking the tour Marie was prompt to respond . We did another tour prior to the start of 1 pm as we had extra time. We followed one of the two suggestions from Marie, and the tour of Chateau Frontenac did not disappoint. As we were a group of 10 with diverse interests , Marie did a good job of ensuring the tour was interesting for everyone and also provided clear explanations and a background of Quebec City's history which made the tour more interesting. Highly recommend this tour! Thank you Marie for a fun afternoon !
Marie is a knowledgeable, fun guide. And, she plays the local musical instrument, spoons, really well.
