Description

Explore Trois-Rivières through all five senses, enjoying gourmet bites and learning fascinating stories about Quebec's second-oldest urban center, founded in 1634 at the confluence of the Saint-Maurice and St. Lawrence Rivers. In my company, you'll stroll through the streets of Old Trois-Rivières, from the river to Rue des Forges, sampling the cuisine of some of the city's best restaurants while learning about the anecdotes, well-kept secrets, and key moments that have shaped this historic district. On the menu: local products, shared tapas, creative mocktails, and local expertise, all served in heritage buildings steeped in history, some of which date back to the 18th century. You’ll leave with a full stomach, but more importantly, with a new perspective on Trois-Rivières: a vibrant, food-loving city that proudly carries nearly 400 years of history. Based in Trois-Rivières since 1998, I've seen the city transform, its chefs evolve, and its old walls come back to life. For me, history isn't just something you read about in books: it's something you savor at a table and breathe in on the riverbank. During this 3.5-hour experience, we will follow in the footsteps of the city's founders from 1634, while stopping to savor the genius of today's chefs. From the Maison de la Forge (1757) to the northern-inspired flavors overlooking the St. Lawrence River, each stop is a meeting of the past and the palate. I'll share with you my secret spots and the stories that only true Trifluvians know. My mission: To give you exclusive access to the best restaurants in the city center while revealing the secrets of the second-oldest French city in North America. With 28 years of life in Trois-Rivières under my belt, I guarantee you a tour off the beaten path, enriched by local flavors and authentic stories. Come and discover my neighborhood, my city, and my passion for Trois-Rivières' gastronomy. Your unique and authentic guide.
