Walking Tour of Old Quebec
Description
Upon booking, you can choose between the following options:
Spring, summer and autumn tour (April 15th to January 2nd)
We will meet up at the time you select in front of the Quebec Visitor Center to begin a guided tour of the old city.
During this two-hour tour, we will explore one of the most beautiful and charming cities in Canada on foot. We will walk through its picturesque streets, discover shops that seem straight out of a fairy tale, and we will reveal the history of the only walled city in North America. Did you know that it has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO?
The Notre-Dame de Québec minor basilica, the beautiful Place Royal, Rue Saint-Jean, and Rue Saint Louis, and the iconic Château Frontenac, are just some of the amazing places in Quebec's old town. We will also visit Petit Champlain, one of the most popular shopping areas in the city.
Finally, we will return to the original starting point, where we will end the tour.
Winter tour (January 3rd to April 14th)
In this case, we'll meet at the indicated time at the Quebec Visitors' Center. From there, we'll start a walking tour of the city to discover its winter charm.
We'll first walk along the Place d'Armes, where we'll see the façade of the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity. This temple is not to be confused with the Cathedral-Basilica of Notre-Dame de Québec, which we'll also see on our tour.
Then we'll head to the emblematic Dufferin Terrace street and continue our route through the Petit-Champlain neighbourhood. Finally, we'll conclude this 1.5-hour tour at Place Royale.
