We had an excellent experience with Claude. I would highly recommend his tour. He was very knowledgeable, entertaining, and made the tour memorable. 5 stars is not enough. :)

Claude provided an amazing experience. We had a large group 16 ( but 2 > 90 years old and 2 in wheelchairs), so had special requests. We were able to experience the rich culture of Quebec and Claude did a wonderful job narrating the uniqueness of the many World Heritage sites. He found a quaint rural French cafe and allowing time to explore. He helped immensely bringing us to a store for 1 in our group whose luggage was lost and arranging for a cab to bring them to our cruise ship (w/ necessary translate)

Claude was an excellent guide to Quebec City and its environs. He was early which always wins points with us. The tour was a combination of walking around the city (upper and lower Quebec) while he pointed out architectural points, provided general history as well as current perspectives. He took us to several places outside the city (falls, Ile d'Orlean and Basilica Anne d'beaupre). His English was excellent and he had water and snacks available. We covered alot but learned much. Highly recommend.

Outstanding! Simply outstanding! Claude was so comfortable to be with; felt like spending the afternoon with a friend from the first moment. He was very knowledgeable. He told us so much about every place we visited and interesting facts and stories about things along the way. He was an excellent driver. He left us with tips on other things to see and do and places to eat in Quebec City. A day to remember.

A delightful few hours with Claude walking through Quebec City Old Town then driving to Île d'Orleans for fruit wine and chocolate, the Basilica and the waterfalls. He was informative, interesting and friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed our tour with him.

Claude was our guide on Tuesday, October 29, 2019. He was fantastic- a 5 out of 5. Not only was he a fountain of information, he was flexible to our needs (we had several time changes with the cruise). We had a group of 21 and everyone was delighted . Thank you, Claude for a memorable day.

Claude was great. Would use him again. Very knowledgeable and very fun. Schedule with him you will have a great tour.

CYNTHIA BEGGS, United States 

★★★★★

Would give Clause a 10 star rating if we could. He was an excellent, knowledgeable tour guide and we enjoyed both days with him as our tour guide. He changed the tour to work with the rainy weather knowing that the afternoon would be better for the walking tour rather than the morning which is when he usually does the walking tour. He answered all our questions and did a magnificent tour. Would highly recommend him to everyone.

★★★★★

Fantastic way to spend a day discovering Quebec City and surrounding areas. Claude is quite knowledgeable and passionate about his city and it really comes through! He adjusted the speed and focus of the tour quite well for our family, keeping all engaged and having a fantastic time. Quebec City is truly a magical place and if you are visiting I would very much recommending booking Claude's tour.

A tour conducted by true gentleman and to an extremely high standard. Claude was very fried.y, knowledgeable and extremely accommodating We would truly recommend him as a tour guide Thank you ! 

ROBERT EKEDAHL, Boise, ID, United States

 ★★★★★

We couldn't have been more pleased with Claude and with his tour. Claude went out of his way to make it possible for us to meet an old friend for lunch. His KIA van was perfect including a sound system that made hearing from the 3rd row seats possible. A tour bus operator approached our van and said "You're lucky. You have the best guide in Quebec City". We heartily agree! 

FRANK NUSPEL, Germany

 ★★★★★

Claude is a fantastic host and tour guide. We felt as being at home since the first second. He has shown us so many beautiful places in this amazing city. It was a great pleasure to be guests of Claude. Thank you very much for this great and marvelous day. We enjoyed it so much. If there's anybody looking for a private guide in Quebec - please first ask Claude. 

ROBERT CASTEEL, United States

★★★★★

Knowledgeable, well-paced and thorough tour. The best of our trip. He comes equipped with snacks, umbrellas, etc. to make things go smoothly.

DAN DRAVES, United States

★★★★★

I rarely comment on anything, but Claude's tour was incredible! This was a first "private" tour for all four of us. We've seen many group tours, and now realize how impersonal they can be. Claude far exceeded our expectations with his lifelong knowledge and sincere desire to share with others. He had Historical information, but also keeps up with current events. And, he is very well known and appreciated throughout the Province, providing a VIP experience at each of the venues. Easily a 5 star booking! 

DANELLE MATHEWS, United States

★★★★★

Claude is the best! He customized our tour of Quebec City, showing us everything we wanted to see within our time frame. His knowledge of the city and surrounding area was excellent. I highly recommend him!

ALAN STEVENSON, United States

★★★★★

I wish there was the opportunity to provide a six-star rating. Claude is at this level, if not more. His love of Quebec City was evident throughout our tour. His knowledge was over the top. He provided us with a diverse set of experiences. All six of us on the tour shared numerous post-tour comments on the OUTSTANDING experience that we had. As we were leaving the port terminal the first day, my wife overheard another guide comment that Claude was the BEST tour guide in Quebec City. Indeed, he was.

NELDA BRANGWIN, United States

★★★★★

This was one of the best tours ever! We didn't know what we wanted but Claude did! Because of climate marches we did a quick tour of the city and then headed out to the country. My husband, who isn't the most observant man in the world, echoed the same feeling I did. If we could speak French and didn't mind a cold winter, the villages we visited were a place we would love to live in. Even though it wasn't Three Pines of the books by Louise Penny, I got the same feeling of a comfortable caring place. 

SANDY B. LIEBERMAN, California, USA

★★★★★

Claude is an outstanding tour guide, teacher, and gentleman. When I entered his car, he had a cooler of drinks and snacks. He is extremely knowledgeable about the past and present sights in Quebec. He told me about an outstanding restaurant in Montreal, Europea. It is an happening and expensive. It is worth every penny. Claude is a six star guide.

TOM  EBEL,  United States

★★★★★

After taking your tour I realized what a special place Quebec City is. The French culture it represents is such a small percentage of North America. You do a tremendous job of promoting its uniqueness, keep up the good work. Thanks again  

BASIL GAMSU, Israel

★★★★★

I recently arranged a tour of Quebec City by Claude B. I can only say great things about the tour. He was extremely knowledgable with a very pleasant and friendly personality. He met us at the cruise ship terminal (we disembarked 30 minutes ahead of the expected time)—he was waiting for us. He did not watch the clock-we extended from the original hours without feeling in any way under pressure. I thoroughly recommend him to anybody requiring a private guide of Quebec City. 

JOSEPH RUSS, United States

★★★★★

After reviewing the ToursByLocals guides (all of whom looked good), I selected Claude Beauchamp. I could not have made a better choice. First, the day of the scheduled tour was pouring rain, so he accommodated us and changed the tour to the next day which was perfect weather. Secondly, his experience from his working career was invaluable to giving us an all inclusive tour. We were never rushed and his personality was the best. My wife and I cannot say enough great things about him. Highly recommended! 

NORMAN BALDWIN, United States

★★★★★

Claude was a perfect tour guide. He was most knowledgeable about the area's history, geography and culture. He deserves more than 5 stars.

RONALD NOWICKI, United States

Rating ★★★★★ 

Wish I could add a sixth star. Claude was on-time, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. He re-arranged the tour to better meet our needs and still found the time to assist other travelers having problems. Super guide.

KAREN SCHEER, United States

★★★★★

We had an excellent tour of Quebec City and some of the surrounding area with Claude B. He is extremely knowledgeable about Quebec, gave us tons of information, and answered all questions. We saw all the main points in the Old City, and really got the background of it all. We went out to see the Ste-Anne-de-Beaupré Shrine, which was wonderful. We toured the Island of Orleans, with a stop at a chocolatier and a winemakers. Then to Montmorency Falls on the way back to the city. A highly enjoyable day! 

EMMA GOURLEY, United States

★★★★★

Claude, gave us an amazing tour in Quebec City. He customized it for us at the minute realizing that we had already covered some of the tour the day before. He is very knowledgeable about Quebec City. Trust me you will enjoy him and his special places he takes you too.

JAMES WHITE, United States

★★★★★

Claude did an excellent job of customizing a tour for me to complement the scheduled activities of the land tour that left me a free day in Quebec City. He was pleasant , knowledgeable and informative. It was a pleasure to spend the day with him. 

STEVEN COCKRIEL, St-Louis, Missouri USA

★★★★★

Claude was an excellent tour guide. Fluent in English. We had a group of six people and his vehicle was clean and in good condition. He even provided umbrellas, snacks and drinks! He seamlessly adjusted our tour to deal with weather conditions and was very accommodating to our wishes. He also provided helpful information on local restaurants and even sent a list of other things we might want to do on our other days. Highly recommend this tour and this guide!

KATIE STALLINGS, New-York, USA

★★★★★

Thank you Claude! This was the most special day and it is all thanks to Claude. We had a group of 9 and he was able to secure a beautiful, well stocked van large enough for the full group. Not only were the vineyard tours stunning and delicious - we had time to sit and enjoy the Quebec City Scenery! The falls were truly spectacular and we had an amazing time. I HIGHLY recommend taking a tour with Claude, his English is amazing and we cannot thank him enough!

STEVEN NUCKLES, USA

Enjoy 3 hours of New France History. Claude keeps you moving to capture the best of Quebec City. His knowledge of French & British History is extensive. On your first full day in Quebec book a tour with Claude. You will enjoy the rest of your visit with a good knowledge base and opportunity explore more of this part of Canada

RONALD KOOL , USA

 ★★★★★

My rating for Claude is 5 Stars. His car was comfortable, impeccably clean and stocked with snacks and beverages. His enthusiasm for your beautiful city was contagious and he was an engaging and extremely knowledgeable guide. In our relatively short tour, I learned more about Quebec City with him than I would have with several days on my own. One of the best guides I have ever had!!!! 

ALISON POLITZINER, USA

★★★★★

It was a delight and a great education to spend the morning walking with Claude listening to him explain the history of Quebec City and the Provence. Claude shared information about present day QC, adding to the enjoyment of our morning. Claude is an excellent guide and anyone choosing him will be in for a most interesting history lesson and engaging conversation. 

Thank you, Claude.

BRUCE McCALL, USA

★★★★★

We spent a very enjoyable day with Claude exploring Quebec! He was very knowledgeable and was consistently able to fill our many gaps regarding Canadian history. We toured not only Quebec City but also the Ile d'Orleans, Montmorency Falls and the impressive basilica of St. Anne de Beaupre. Thanks, Claude, your enthusiasm for your lovely city was contagious and we look forward to returning some day! 

MICHELLE LAIRD, USA

★★★★★

We took an 8-hour tour with Claude on July 18. We were thoroughly impressed with how professional and kind he is, as well as the comfort and convenience of his touring vehicle (stocked with a variety of snacks and ice-cold drinks). The workers at Montmorency Falls were on strike the day we took our tour but we still managed to see the Falls and Claude came up with a fantastic Plan B that included zip-lining over a waterfall. Great trip, exceptional value, fantastic tour guide !

EDWIN HORNER, USA

★★★★★

Claude surpasses all expectations . He was attentive, knowledgeable and extremely personable. He showed pride in his home and culture and imparted it very well. My wife and I could not have been happier with our choice. His English is very good and we would certainly use him again.

CATHERINE GLYNN,  Canada

LAUREL RAMER,  United States

Claude was an excellent guide! We had just one day in Quebec City, and Claude helped us make the most of it. He gave us time to see everything we wanted and was so knowledgeable on the rich history. Claude is a delight and made us feel very welcomed. Thank you Claude!

Had an amazing day. We were able to see much of the city and learn as we went. He was well prepared and knew many facts from memory. Wonderful day, we would do it again. 

ELISABETH KEARNEY, Foxborough, Massachusetts

★★★★★

Claude was knowledgable, friendly and courteous. His tour of Quebec was excellent. He took pride in showing us his city and was able to answer all of our questions and some questions we didn't even think of. He filled every minute and took us places that no other tour would have done. If we could give him 10 stars we would have. I highly recommend Claude to anyone who may visit Quebec. He made us want to go back for more and hope to do so soon.

JAMES STORK, Boston, Massachusetts
