Québec City feels like a slice of Europe in North America — a walled old town of cobblestones and copper roofs, French cuisine, and a grand château hotel above the St. Lawrence.
Day 1 · Arrive & settle in
Land, drop your bags, and ease into Québec City with something low-key nearby. It’s the only walled city north of Mexico — just wander the old town on foot.
Day 2 · Old Québec and the city walls
Spend the morning on the highlight, then in the afternoon or evening: château frontenac.
Day 3 · Petit-Champlain quarter
Spend the morning on the highlight, then in the afternoon or evening: montmorency falls.
Day 4 · Dufferin Terrace boardwalk
Spend the morning on the highlight, then in the afternoon or evening: french-canadian dining.
Day 5 · Last morning & departure
Squeeze in one more before you go — old québec and the city walls if you have time — then head to the airport.
