DESCRIPTION
Experience the joys of Quebec City’s charming Old Town from three unique perspectives—by walking, riding a funicular and enjoying a tasting in a local restaurant. The experience begins with a walk through Old Town, the only walled city in North America. The area was settled about 400 years ago, as you will discover at Place-Royale, the heart of the original settlement and home to the continent’s oldest Catholic Church. A scenic ride on a funicular will bring you to Upper Town, where you will find landmarks such as Dufferin Terrace, where explorer Samuel de Champlain built a fort in 1620. It offers sweeping views of the St. Lawrence River and the majestic Laurentian Mountains. You will also see Château Frontenac, the iconic castle-like hotel that opened in 1893.
