Visit of Old Levis with tasting at the Point of Sale

The discovery of Lévis and its maritime, rail and commercial history is different from the history of Québec City. Our guide will help you discover lesser-known aspects of the history of Lévis during both the French and English colonies. The social changes of the Canadian period are also visible in Old Levis. For the summer season 2025 (5 July to 21 September) our visit to Lévis ends with a tasting at the farmers market of Lévis. This tasting takes place with some merchants and farmers present on Sundays at the public market of Lévis. We conduct the same visit to the public market of Cap-Rouge on Saturdays from July 5 to August 31, 2025. Our guides are bilingual French and English, it is possible to have a guide speaking Spanish or Italian by applying a week in advance.
