Québec City offers historic streets, a dramatic river setting and compact neighbourhoods. Allow time for slopes and stairways when linking the upper and lower town.
Planning your days
Stay around Old Québec for a compact first visit. Terrasse Dufferin belongs with the upper town; Petit-Champlain lies below. Include the climb, stairs or other connection when planning the return, especially if mobility is a concern.
