Marie Michèlle was a fantastic guide. Very friendly and knowledgeable. A great introduction to Quebec City and all it's charms. She had lots of great suggestions for things to do after the tour. Highly recommended.

My friend Jerry and I made a detour North from Vermont specifically to visit the UNESCO site of Old Quebec during our travels through the US. The weather was quite fickle that morning and it quickly went from mildly warm to blustery with a bit of rain. Luckily it blew past as fast as it arrived leaving us with good walking-tour weather. We met up with Marie, a native of Quebec, as well as a well established guide, did an excellent job providing history, and interesting tidbits you might not get with most tours while keeping us laughing the entire time during the 3-hour tour through Old Quebec. The French Canadians were very welcoming and laid back. I was impressed with the overall ease of touring this popular area, especially with the HUGE summer music festival getting ready to light up another night with top name bands of all genres throughout the area. Marie took her time with us, hitting all the points of interest as she expertly navigated us around the city while making sure we arrived at our boarding location just in time to enjoy our afternoon river cruise. Thank you Marie for your hospitality and a job well done. I have to add Quebec City to one of my favorite places I have visited in the world. European flaire with lovely people, clean, amazing history and absolutely beautifu

Ours was a family group from 8 years to 80+ years. Michelle did a wonderful tour for our enjoyment. We learned a lot about Quebec and the many sites we visited without ever being rushed. We highly recommend Michelle as your tour guide in Quebec City.

Marie was an excellent guide, knowledgeable, funny and helped us try out our fledgling knowledge of French. She tailored the tour to our desires and left us with a greater sense of Quebec City and a list of things to do that inspired us. Highly recommended

Marie Michelle was an absolute pleasure! We started our tour early on a brisk morning and she took us to a nearby coffee shop for a warm beverage to accompany our walk. She took the time to understand our interests and what parts of the city we had already seen, then customized our tour accordingly. She knows the city so well and shares great insights on the major attractions as well as a few fun lesser known sites. She is fun, energetic, and very proud of her city. Highly recommend!
