Overview

No worries if your flight gets in late, this tour is perfect for you!

As evening falls, Old Québec lights up under the glow of that golden hour. It’s quieter at this time, making it the perfect moment to stroll the historic streets of Lower Town before heading up to Upper Town, all while enjoying amazing views of the St. Lawrence River.

Check out Place Royale, the birthplace of French civilization in North America. Wander through the charming Rue du Petit-Champlain with its boutiques and artisan shops, and see the Fresque des Québécois come alive with history. Take a moment to relax before slowly making your way up to Upper Town.

Up top, enjoy the most photographed hotel, the Château Frontenac, and its boardwalk Terrasse Dufferin. You’ll be in the perfect spot to choose a restaurant and enjoy a delicious dinner, a perfect way to end a night in Québec City.
