Overview

We aim to make you discover the city differently by passing through lesser-known streets and places in Old Quebec. We are one of the few tour companies entering the Museum of Civilization. Our tour begins near the St. Lawrence River to connect this maritime route with the history of the city.
Shopping is not done during our visits even if you are taken to some shops and boutiques, while passing by the streets too commercial.
We show you the Holy Door of Quebec and explain the history of the Holy Doors and Holy Years. Finally, in the courtyard of the Seminary, we explain the influence of the Catholic Church on the development of our Quebec society.
Visits in French or English, we manage to answer you in Spanish. We conclude close to the place to go shopping, have a drink or eat after your discovery.
For 2026, the Award remains the same. Ideal for avoiding crowds.
