Thinking about exploring Quebec City but want to avoid the cookie-cutter bus tours? This private, four-hour experience offers a personalized way to see the city in style. Rather than following a preset itinerary, you’ll have a dedicated guide and a luxurious vehicle that adapts to your interests. Whether you’re after iconic sights or hidden gems, this tour promises flexibility and comfort.
One of the things we really like about this offering is how customizable it is. No rushed stops or strict schedules—you set the pace and choose what catches your eye. Plus, traveling in a high-end vehicle like a Lincoln Continental or Cadillac Lyriq adds a touch of luxury that makes the experience feel special. On the flip side, the price point of $500 per group for up to three people isn’t cheap, but considering the exclusivity and personalized attention, many may find it worth the splurge.
Another consideration is that this is a 4-hour window, so it’s best suited for those who want an overview rather than an exhaustive tour. If you’re after deep dives into specific sights like Old Quebec or Montmorency Falls, you’ll want to communicate your preferences ahead of time. This experience is really ideal for those who value a flexible, intimate, and tailored exploration of Quebec City—perfect for couples, small groups, or friends who want to avoid large crowds and rigid schedules.
Who this tour suits best? If you’re a traveler who appreciates local insights, appreciates comfort, and prefers to craft your own sightseeing agenda, this private tour could be just the thing. It’s especially appealing if you’re visiting with a small group and want a more refined, personalized experience.

Why Choose a Private, Luxury Vehicle Tour?

When exploring Quebec City, many travelers settle for large bus tours or walking explorations that follow the same routes day after day. This private tour turns that idea on its head by offering an experience tailored specifically to you. In a comfortable, high-end vehicle, you’ll enjoy the journey as much as the destinations, all while having a guide who’s dedicated solely to your group.
The benefit of a private tour like this is the flexibility. You can start wherever you want—your hotel, cruise terminal, Airbnb, or any address within the city limits. The guide will meet you there, and you’ll discuss your interests, whether it’s the charming outskirts, countryside, or a focus on specific sights like wineries or scenic views. This is a real advantage if you’ve already done the usual Old Quebec walk and want to venture further out.
The vehicles offered are notable for their comfort and style. Groups of 1-3 travelers get a Lincoln Continental or Cadillac Lyriq—luxury options that elevate the entire experience. Larger groups up to nine can opt for spacious vans like the Ford Transit or Mercedes Sprinter, making it a good choice for families or small groups of friends.

What It’s Like to Have a Fully Customizable Tour

One of the standout features is the absence of a preset itinerary. Instead, your guide will act as a local expert, helping craft a route based on your interests. For example, if you’ve already explored Old Quebec extensively, perhaps you’ll want to see more of the countryside or visit nearby islands like Île d’Orléans. The flexibility ensures you’re not stuck with a schedule that doesn’t suit your preferences.
The guide’s knowledge and personable approach get high praise from previous travelers. As one reviewer put it, Stephane was “knowledgeable, warm, welcoming, and personable,” making the tour memorable beyond just the sights. Others highlight how guides like Alex and Louie provided engaging storytelling and made the journey both fun and educational.
Because the tour is private, you can ask questions freely and steer the conversation toward what you find most interesting—be it history, local culture, food, or scenic spots. And since the guide speaks both English and French fluently, language won’t be a barrier to getting the most out of your experience.
Sample Itinerary and Highlights

While the tour is flexible, here’s what you might expect when you book:
- Pickup at your accommodation or preferred address within Quebec City. The experience begins with a personal greeting and a quick discussion about your interests.
- Exploring beyond the classic Old Quebec. If you’ve done the usual walking tours of the historic district, this is your chance to see less crowded areas or the outskirts, depending on your preferences.
- Countryside or island visits. If you’re interested in seeing rural Quebec or the scenic Île d’Orléans, your guide can arrange stops there. Previous reviews mention visits to wineries and ice cream shops—simple pleasures that add a local touch.
- Scenic drives with commentary. You’ll enjoy smooth rides through charming neighborhoods, scenic countryside, or picturesque river views, all while learning about the city’s history and culture from your guide.
- Custom stops. Want to see Montmorency Falls or the Château Frontenac? No problem; you can include these stops if they fit your interests and time allows.
- Drop-off at your preferred location. The tour concludes where you want, whether that’s your hotel or another spot within Quebec City.
How the Tour Wraps Up

In four hours, your guide will ensure you’ve seen a mix of what interests you most, all in a relaxed, comfortable setting. The inclusion of water bottles keeps you hydrated, especially if you’re exploring on a warm day. Since entrance fees are not included, you might find yourself deciding on attractions like Montmorency Falls or local wineries to visit outside the tour, which can be arranged informally with your guide.
Travelers have highlighted the excellent service and personalized attention they received. As one reviewer mentioned, their guide “arrived early” and “arranged a great tour of the town and Île d’Orléans,” making for an enriching experience. The guides seem well-versed and eager to accommodate special requests, which is a big plus.

At $500 for up to three people, the tour isn’t the cheapest option out there, but it offers a level of exclusivity, comfort, and customization that large group tours can’t match. For small groups, couples, or travelers who value tailored experiences and engaging guides, this price can feel justified. The inclusion of a luxury vehicle and a dedicated guide adds a touch of class that elevates a typical sightseeing day.
Consider the cost as an investment in a personal exploration of Quebec City, especially if you’re someone who prefers to avoid crowds and schedules. Plus, the flexibility to customize your stops means you’re not just rushing from monument to monument—you’re shaping your day based on what truly interests you.
