Description
Explore Quebec City with a walking tour designed to introduce you to one of North America's first settlements. Marvel at Old Quebec's history as well as the city's most popular attractions.
Begin your tour at 112, rue Saint-Paul, where you’ll meet your guide and start exploring Old Québec.
Discover the Lower Town first, including Place Royale, the Québec City Mural, the Fortifications of Québec, and the charming Quartier Petit Champlain. Then enjoy a scenic funicular ride up to the Upper Town, admiring views of the St. Lawrence River. In the Upper Town, visit Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, Terrasse Dufferin, Notre-Dame de Québec Basilica-Cathedral, and Québec’s City Hall, all brought to life with stories and insights.
A 15–20% tip for your guide is strongly recommended at the end of the visit. If the funicular is closed, we can arrange cab transport to avoid having to walk up the hill or a ticket for later use, at the customer’s discretion (if they wish to walk up).
This walking tour is perfect for first-time visitors wanting a full city overview!
