An excellent private tour of old Quebec

We had a wonderful private tour of old Quebec with Louise as our guide. We booked a private tour as 2 in our group of four had some mobility issues and the day of our tour was exceptionally windy. Our guide, Louise was very considerate pacing the tour to our needs. She located nooks that offered protection from the wind and benches for sitting while she regaled us with interesting stories about the history and architecture of old Quebec . Louise was entertaining, knowledgeable , willing to answered our questions and a woman proud of her city. She also provided us with restaurant and shopping tips and some of the present Quebec culture. A private tour worked perfectly for our group.

Acquired a good grounding...

Acquired a good grounding of the history and geography of the Quebec City old town area from our guide Carmen. Great way to begin a visit. Carmen respected our desired pace, sit needs, and rest room breaks. She exhibited a deep knowledge of the history and culture of the city and province.

Excellent walking tour

Walking tour that takes you to all the major sites. What was good is that we primarily went downhill most of the trip and took funicular back up. Guide was exceptional with knowledge of sites and food recommendations

Operator response

Thank you for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed discovering the major sites of Old Québec and that the mostly downhill route made for a pleasant walk. It’s also great to hear your guide’s knowledge and restaurant tips added to the experience. 😊

An unforgettable experience, even in the rain, thanks to Geneviève!

We had the chance to visit Old Quebec with Geneviève, and this was undoubtedly the highlight of our stay! Despite a heavy rain that could have ruined the day, Geneviève was a real ray of sunshine. She was able to adapt the route brilliantly, finding us strategic refuges while continuing to captivate us with her stories.

Operator response

Merci beaucoup pour ce magnifique commentaire ! 😊 Nous sommes ravis que Geneviève ait su transformer votre journée pluvieuse en un moment mémorable grâce à ses refuges stratégiques et à ses récits captivants. Après tout, Québec se vit autant sous le soleil que sous la pluie. Bien heureux que vous ayez pu en profiter pleinement. ☔⭐️
