Itinerary
For groups traveling to Quebec over a school break we recommend visiting both cities.
Montreal, second only to Paris in the ranks of French-speaking cities, is the cultural capital of Québec. It's historic port district, the modern downtown, and the beautiful parks and open spaces the city has to offer should not to be missed if you're visiting Quebec for more than a few days.
Quebec City is much smaller, but the historic district - recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985 - is larger and has fully preserved it's European feel, history, culture and warmth. It's narrow cobbled streets, 17th- and 18th- century houses, historical buildings, universities, convents and churches, plazas and parks, shops and restaurants, are a pleasure to explore on foot.
The journey to Quebec City from Montreal provides a perfect opportunity to tour the stunning Basilica of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré and marvel at Montmorency Falls where the Montmorency River cascades down into the Saint Lawrence River.
