Free admission
The huge star-shaped Citadel of Quebec (Citadelle de Quebec) is the largest military fortress in North America still occupied by troops. Begun by the French in the 1750s, the fortress was completed by the British in the mid-19th century, but never actually saw any action. Today, Canada’s French-speaking Royal 22nd Regiment (Royal 22e Régiment) is based here.

Private walking tour of the UNESCO Historic District of Old Québec
This tour will show you the most important parts of the Historic District of Old Quebec, which has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1985.
Starting with the first nations, we'll go through the history of the city with the arrival of the first French settlers, the creation of the Royal colony of New France, the emergence of Quebec City as capital of British North America, the creation of the Dominion of Canada, leading to the contemporary era. Almost 500 years of history!
I can do rigorous in-dept guided tours, but I can also do light and amusing ones with many fun facts and anecdotes! My philosophy is to listen to my clients needs, and tailor-made a visit that will measure up to their expectations and hopefully beyond.
