Offered in: EnglishOld Québec is North America’s most European city, and this tour puts its flavors front and center. Over five stops through cobblestone streets lined with 400 year old architecture, you’ll eat your way through centuries of Québécois food culture, from rustic comfort food to refined local ingredients.
You’ll start with earthy Lion’s Mane mushrooms and duck breast carpaccio, then warm up with the holy trio of traditional Québécois cooking: silky pea soup, savory pâté chinois, and fresh maple taffy. A 200-year-old home serves handmade gnocchi bathed in cheddar, cream, shallot, and white wine with a black garlic crumble. A sweet stop brings you sucre à la crème and what many locals call the best croissant in the city. Then you close the only way you should: with poutine.
On Sundays and Mondays, the gnocchi stop is swapped for a warming oat risotto crowned with a rock shrimp salad. Groups are kept small so every stop feels personal.

Pole Culturel du Monastere des Ursulines
Tucked into the cobblestone streets of the old town sit two of Old Québec's most charming curiosities, side by side. The first is a narrow little building often called the smallest house in North America, the kind of hidden gem most visitors stroll right past without a second glance. Right beside it stands the historic Ursuline Convent, founded in 1639 and home to the oldest girls' school on the continent. Your guide brings the contrast to life, sharing the quirky, surprising, and sometimes touching stories behind both, the tiny and the grand, in one stop.
