Cette visite guidée hivernale est parfaite pour découvrir le Vieux-Québec, son histoire et ses charmes en plein hiver. Profitez de la ville nordique la plus pittoresque d’Amérique du Nord grâce à des pauses au chaud pendant la visite guidée.
Vous allez découvrir des lieux chargés d’une histoire fascinante dans un cadre féerique. Vous verrez certains des principaux attraits du cœur historique de la Ville de Québec. Comme les célèbres Place royale, Château Frontenac, Hôtel de Ville et les cathédrales (catholique et anglicane). Puisque c’est une visite saisonnière, proposée l’hiver seulement, nous nous focaliserons sur l’influence de la saison froide sur les évènements historiques, la culture locale et l’architecture.
La visite hivernale du Vieux-Québec a lieu à l’extérieur, dans les rues pittoresques du Vieux-Port et du Petit Champlain (Basse-Ville) et du Vieux-Québec (Haute-Ville), mais nous ferons des arrêts pour se réchauffer.
Pour vous donner un aperçu, voici quelques sujets hivernaux abordés : Bonhomme Carnaval et le plus grand carnaval hivernal du monde, l’impact du pont de glace sur l’économie, le canot à glace, le siège de 1775 avec Benedict Arnold…
Important:
- Le Musée de la civilisation ne vend aucun billet pour la visite guidée hivernale, ce n’est que le lieu de départ du tour.
- Veuillez vous habiller chaudement. Même si nous ferons des pauses au chaud, nous passerons la majeure partie du temps dehors. L’hiver ici est très froid et venteux.
Comment y aller ?
Le Musée de la Civilisation a deux entrées: une sur la rue Dalhousie et l’autre sur la rue Saint-Pierre. Le lieu de rencontre se situe à l’intérieur du musée, à côté de La Boutique du musée, donc côté rue Saint-Pierre.
I loved all the history of Quebec during the walk. If you love history, be sure to book this trip. 🙂 Also, Xavier would send a long message on how to be prepared, proper clothes to wear (in winter especially). Although it might seem intimidating but be sure to read it carefully! It is sooooo useful! I was here only for a quick trip and as I was flying then to a much warmer place after Quebec I do not have enough layers to make myself warm. But luckily I was able to get some proper clothes (ski pants, yes it was very cold the days I was here lol , and some warm gloves and warm patches for the feet). Trust me, when you are well prepared for the cold weather, you would enjoy the walk so much more! Also try some good poutine at Chez Ashton and I also loved the dipped chocolate ice cream at Chocolats favoris (and yes ice cream on freezing weather but I think that’s what made it better LOL). I hope you would enjoy Quebec as much as I did:)
Par Cl (New York City) sur Airbnb (2019)Amazing tour!!! Highly recommend
Par Cairi (New York City) sur Airbnb (2019)We had a great tour with Xavier. He is incredibly knowledgeable and sprinkled lots of interesting stories throughout the tour. We did it as a family and our two teenage sons, 14 and 12, paid attention and had a good time too. He gave us lots of tips for dressing in the Canadian winter which made our entire stay that much more enjoyable. Don’t miss out learning the fascinating history of Quebec City with Xavier!
Par Elizabeth (New York City) sur Airbnb (2019)He is a great tour guide! Keeps it entertaining as much as informative and intriguing! A great tour that shows important parts in the city with a pinch of history and humor in it for a really good price for two hours! Would 10/10 recommend it!
Par Asya (New York) sur Airbnb (2019)We really enjoyed this your. Xavier knows the history of Quebec City like the back of his hand. It was fascinating to learn all the fine nuances that you would never know if you ventured out on your own to explore. He is also very aware of the people in the group and checked in with us frequently to see how we were doing. I had really cold feet as my boots were not really appropriate for Quebec City snow and slush. He even had toe warmers to give me! Suede boots are not appropriate for Quebec City my friends! Bring hearty winter boots! Xavier was a great experience host. We fully recommend this tour!
Par Toni (Calgary) sur Airbnb (2019)Great tour! Very informative, lots of places covered in a relatively short amount of time. He definitely knows the ins and the outs of Old Quebec... where to go, what to see, best places to eat, etc. Xavier enjoys what he does and it shows. He has a great sense of humor and is very personable. I highly recommend this experience. Be sure to follow Xavier’s instructions on how to dress for the winter tour and you will be very glad you did!
Par Connie (New Hampshire) sur Airbnb (2019)It is great way to explore old city! Perfect tour, well planned!
Par Ugur (Nederland / Netherlands) sur Airbnb (2019)This was a wonderful tour, and Xavier was very knowledgeable and engaging. Pay attention to his advice regarding recommended attire for this tour—it is spot-on. Highly recommend this experience!
Par Paula (Delaware) sur Airbnb (2019)Even thou it was very cold we had a wonderful time on this experience! Xavier was very knowledgeable and you could tell that he thoroughly enjoys his job. He even brought heating pads for us!
Par Judith (Suisse / die Schweiz / Switzerland) sur Airbnb (2019)It was a rich history lesson about the Old Port and City.
