An excellent walking tour and guide!

We had an excellent tour guide, Phil, who made the tour interesting and enjoyable. He was very knowledgeable, answered questions well and willingly, and made a long walk seem easy and fascinating. I'd highly recommend him and the tour company! mark

Request Maurice and thank me later

I am an avid walking tour attendee, but Maurice has officially raised the bar impossibly high for any future tours I take :) We’ve all experienced those dry tours where you stand around listening to a guide rattle off forgettable dates. Maurice is the absolute antithesis of that. His passion for Quebec City is vibrant and infectious. Within minutes, the usual formality of a tour completely dissolved; it felt like exploring the city with a brilliant, witty friend who happens to know every fascinating piece of historical drama. Maurice masterfully weaves complex political and religious history into a gripping narrative rather than a lecture, keeping our entire group completely captivated. He was incredibly generous with his time and energy—never rushing us, ensuring everyone felt included, and welcoming every single question with enthusiasm. He even stayed after the tour to help us map out our supper and brunch. Maurice didn't just show us the city; he genuinely made our trip.

Yvonne was our guide and...

Yvonne was our guide and she was terrific. So knowledgeable about the history of Quebec and Quebec City, interesting stories, answered all my questions, shared life experiences. Good pacing too and she also found some places to shelter from the 30mph gusts of wind while continuing the tour. Great morning.

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.
