The walls of Old Quebec have today accumulated over 400 years of history and culture. This UNESCO World Heritage treasure is the cradle of French civilization in North America; the architecture, food and customs here are all influenced by European culture. In just a few hours, you can visit the battlefield that changed the world, overlook the cobblestone streets and the St. Lawrence River, and admire the work of several generations of great local artists.
The Old City of Quebec is very suitable for a walking exploration. Every corner, stairwell, doorway and alley hides charming features and unique landscapes. Remember to wear a pair of suitable walking shoes!
1. Early departure in the morning to the Montmorency fall. The largest waterfall in Quebec, at 84 meters (276ft) high and 46 meters (151ft) wide, 30 meters (98ft) higher than Niagara Falls. A cable car will drive us directly to the top of the mountain. We can take a walk on the staircases that will allow us to view the falls from several different perspectives. Furthermore, there is a suspension bridge over the crest of the falls to provide access to both sides of the park as well as a spectacular view. （We will reach the summit by tourist bus when cable car is closed)
2. After lunch, we will continue our journey to one of the most important landmarks in North American history, Old Quebec City. This is the origin of Canadian culture and it is the only city in North America that kept the historical properties maintained. You can see the French-style buildings within the city, creating a romantic mood perfect for couples. After arrival. we will take a historic 1 hour and a half guided cruise on the St. Lawrence River. Aboard the AML Louis Jolliet, cruise from Old Quebec to the Montmorency Falls, passing by l'Île d'Orléans, and enjoy a breathtaking view of the Château Frontenac. And then, free time in Vieux-Quebec.
