Private Quebec City Tour: Old Quebec and Montmorency Falls

See the Château Frontenac, the Citadelle and the cobblestone heart of Old Quebec without building the itinerary yourself.

A private 4-hour tour of Quebec City pairs a certified driver-guide with a luxury vehicle and hotel pickup, so you move through Old Quebec, the Citadelle, Place Royale and the Basilica-Cathedral on your own schedule. The guide adapts the route to your interests (history, architecture, gastronomy or nature), and can include Montmorency Falls, where the 83-meter cascade towers 30 meters higher than Niagara Falls. Entrance fees at the falls are separate. The vehicle and guide are yours alone.

The experience

The tour starts at your hotel and moves through Old Quebec on a route the guide shapes to what you want to see. You'll pass the Château Frontenac, walk the cobblestone streets, and stop at Place Royale and the Basilica-Cathedral Notre-Dame. The Citadelle of Quebec and the Plains of Abraham are also on the map. Your driver-guide is fully accredited by the city and knows how to read what interests you as the day unfolds, so the stops and the pace stay yours.

Montmorency Falls can be added to the itinerary: the waterfall stands 83 meters tall, with a suspension bridge over the crest and an aerial tram (Funitel) that carries you between the base and the top. Access to the park and any rides are at your own cost. The guide will take you there and wait. The air-conditioned vehicle holds you and your group alone, so there's no schedule pressure or strangers on the route.

You choose between a luxury sedan, a luxury SUV, or a large van that fits up to eight passengers. All options include the certified guide, the vehicle for the full four hours, and return transport to your hotel. The guide speaks English or French, and the route stays flexible. If you want to linger at one stop or skip another, that's how the day works.

What’s included

• Private transportation in a luxury vehicle of your choice.
• a certified driver-guide for the full four hours.
• hotel or accommodation pickup and return.

Montmorency Falls can be added to the route, and the guide will take you there. Entry to the park and any rides on the aerial tram or suspension bridge are at your own cost.

What does the 4-hour tour cover in Old Quebec?
