Make the most of your time in Quebec.

Visiting Quebec in the fall can be the perfect time to see this breath-taking city, stroll through the historic streets, and marvel at the colonial architecture of New France. Autumn in Quebec provides a terrific opportunity for amateur photographers to capture the perfect shots of Old Quebec without the tourists. The highlight of many people's visits is Old Quebec, with a great atmosphere and countless shops and restaurants. With charming narrow streets and local shops, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is best explored on foot. Old Quebec also boasts countless centuries-old buildings, and notable landmarks include the citadel and cathedral. As you walk through the cobbled streets, your enthusiastic local guide tells the area's vibrant history. As you can see, there are countless things to do in the old town, whether you are looking for history, culture, or tasty food. Located in the heart of Old Quebec, the Morin Center offers a fascinating introduction to the history of the city. Once a small riverside village and now a thriving place, this touristy yet incredibly picturesque part of Old Quebec includes Canada's most picturesque streets; think centuries-old colourful terraced houses and cobbled streets between cosy bistros and theatres. The heart of the city since Samuel de Champlain founded Fort St. Louis in 1608, Quebec's historic centre is filled with historic buildings, from the Augustinian priory to the Quebec city hall. You will discover both French and British influences as you explore Frontenac Castle. Predominantly located in the upper part of the Upper City of Quebec, the must-see Chateau Frontenac is the emblem of the capital and the most visited attraction. Directly in front of the Chateau Frontenac is the Dufferin Terrace, a wide walkway connecting the castle with the Citadel of Quebec and Plains of Abraham with the Citadel of Quebec Plains of Abraham. No autumn trip to Quebec is complete without a walk along the Governor's Promenade, a giant promenade resembling an ancient sailing ship that connects Dufferin Terrace in front of Frontenac Castle with the cliff-top plains of Abraham Park. Situated on the Saint Lawrence River, Quebec offers must-see attractions from Frontenac Castle to the Quebec Citadel, beautiful natural scenery just outside the city, and a unique glimpse into Canadian history and culture. Discover Quebec from the Saint Lawrence River and drop anchor for an exciting, guided cruise down the Saint Lawrence River from Old Quebec to the Montmorency and Île d ‘Orléans waterfalls and enjoy stunning views of Frontenac Castle.
