Yves knows the city very...
Yves knows the city very well and has connections to get you everywhere. If you’re interested in the local history, this tour is for you.

Take this tour! Yves was...
Take this tour! Yves was a delightful, personable, and knowledgeable guide! He picked us up directly from the cruise port and delivered us to our hotel at the end of the tour. We stopped in Plain of Abraham Park for a coffee and went out to Ilse d'Orleans for maple syrup and strawberries. He was willing to pull over whenever we wanted a picture or get out of the car. The vehicle was spotless and comfortable. One in our party has limited mobility (uses a rolling walker) and Yves was extremely helpful in getting her in and out of the car. He also helped load and unload luggage.

A good starting point to find out the history of Quebec
Yves shared his knowledge of the historical origins of Quebec very well. Because it rained throughout the tour, Yves adjusted the trip and we also got to see the Isle of Orleans and sample local produce direct from the growers

Private Tour of Old Quebec – History and Hidden Treasures: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quebec City.
How much does Private Tour of Old Quebec – History and Hidden Treasures cost?
+
Prices start at $192 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Quebec City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour of Old Quebec – History and Hidden Treasures take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Quebec City is not rushed.
Is Private Tour of Old Quebec – History and Hidden Treasures worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Quebec City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour of Old Quebec – History and Hidden Treasures?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Tour of Old Quebec – History and Hidden Treasures suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour of Old Quebec – History and Hidden Treasures?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Quebec City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Quebec City and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour of Old Quebec – History and Hidden Treasures start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Quebec City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Quebec City?
+
On Outty we rank every Quebec City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Old Quebec Classique Walking Tour with Funicular, Uncover Old Quebec: Fun Walking Tour with a guide-Gratuity based, Quebec City Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Quebec City?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Quebec City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Private Tour of Old Quebec – History and Hidden Treasures?
+
Included: Bottled water. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Private Tour of Old Quebec – History and Hidden Treasures include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 10 listed pickup locations in and around Quebec City. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Private Tour of Old Quebec – History and Hidden Treasures offered in?
+
It is offered in English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Tour of Old Quebec – History and Hidden Treasures?
+
