Student walking tour in old Quebec city

Whether for elementary school or high school students, a guided tour around the Old City is the best way to make a tangible reminder of the different notions of the history of Quebec.

It is by sharing the story of its three major periods, French, British and Canadian, that guide’s lead students in a historical, geographical and cultural visit to help them discover. For example, the St. Lawrence River and its peculiarities, as well as historic buildings, like the Old Seminary, relating certain facts and events in the history of Quebec. Among the places visited, it is worth mentioning the perimeter of the Citadel, a part of the Plains of Abraham, Parliament Hill, the Fortifications of Quebec, City Hall, Samuel de Champlain monument and Place Royale and its surroundings. Place Royale is the birthplace of Quebec City.

The role of the guides during a tour is to keep the attention and interest of the students by placing themselves at their comprehension level. Guides also invite them to answer questions about the concepts learned in class and maintain a constant interaction with the group.
