Quebec City on a Budget (Walking Tour of Old Quebec) (178)
Quebec City was first settled by Jacques-Cartier in 1535. That's 484 years worth of history. Everywhere you look in Old Quebec there is a piece of history. Boasting French Urban Colonial Architecture and prominent military installations, Old Quebec is easy to get around on foot.
We started our tour at the Martello Towers, then crossed the street to the Plains of Abraham. At this site in 1759, the British took control of Quebec City and allowed them to take over the rest of Canada the following year.
From there we walked to the Citadelle which is an active and historic military installation. We then took theGovernor's Walkway boardwalk that hugs Quebec's fortification walls over to the Chateau Frontenac.
The Chateau Frontenac was one of the first grand railway hotels. It has hosted many prominent public figures and has themed rooms to honor such figures as Pierre Elliott & Justin Trudeau, Churchill, and Roosevelt.
We ended the tour meandering within Old Quebec's fortification walls and discovered some festivals, buskers and many, many restaurants.
This walking tour is a low cost, family friendly way to see this beautiful city and many historical sites. There are many signs in both languages that the discuss the important buildings and sites, which also makes it very interactive.
We are looking forwards to visiting it again in the near future.

Travel Guide to Quebec City
In this travel video guide to Quebec City, I travel around Quebec City including its historic Old Town (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), stop in at the famed Ice Hotel where visitors spend the night on ice beds, and explore the Winter Carnival, the biggest winter carnival in the world that attracts over 600,000 people a year.
I finish up the Winter Carnival by watching a night parade and partying it up at a nighttime outdoor snow rave.

???????? CANADA: OLD QUEBEC CITY WALKING TOUR ✈️ ???????? | TRAVEL VLOG #0081
The Quebec old city walking tour made us feel like we had traveled to a small French village! The old town is small, quaint, and cozy, with shops and restaurants that make for a wonderful leisurely afternoon in Quebec City, Canada.
I won this trip through an app called Trover, in partnership with Expedia. Trover is an app that is totally driven by users uploading and describing points of interest during their travels, or even in their own home towns. The app also sponsors frequent photo contests, and all you have to do to enter is upload your photos! I am NOT a professional photographer, and the photo I won with was taken on my old iPhone 6. I won a $1500 travel voucher from Expedia, just for sharing that photo, so download Trover now and start entering!

Walking around Old Quebec City in Canada
Old Quebec (French: Vieux-Québec) is a historic neighbourhood of Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. Comprising the Upper Town (French: Haute-Ville) and Lower Town (French: Basse-Ville), the area is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Administratively, Old Quebec is part of the Vieux-Québec–Cap-Blanc–colline Parlementaire district in the borough of La Cité-Limoilou.
The area is commonly referred to as the Old City or Quebec's Old City in English. It is sometimes referred to as the Latin Quarter (French: Quartier latin) as well, although this title refers more to area around the Séminaire de Québec, the original site of Laval University.
Exploring Old Quebec City, Canada
Our second day in Quebec City Canada was spent exploring the Old Quebec area of town. We started off with a free walking tour to get a feel for this wonderful historic city. The tour brought us through most of the town covering everything from the city walls to sites made famous in Hitchcock's I Confess and other off the beaten path gems. We loved exploring this small piece of Old Europe with all of its French and English influences. After our tour we continued exploring and found some wonderful local dishes and capped the night with a drink inside the iconic Chateau Frontenac.

Quebec City Video Guide
The Canadian province of Quebéc is a traditional wintersports destination. However, it is during the warm summers that its elegant capital, Quebéc City, really comes to life.
Visit Quebéc City to get a taste of France in a familiar North American setting. The walled Upper Town, with all its towers and grand buildings, is just as charming as the historic Lower Town. A funicular and the so-called L'Escalier Casse-Cou (Breakneck Stairs) connects the two parts of the heritage-listed city center.
The Musée de la Civilisation near the waterfront showcases the history of Quebéc, from the First Nations to modern times. The city sprung up around the Notre Dame basilica at Place Royale. Dufferin Terrace is a long promenade with views of the St. Lawrence River. It is overlooked by the landmark Château Frontenac. Other highlights are Battlefields Park, the Fontaine de Tourny at the Parliament Building and of course the Changing of the Guard Ceremony in La Citadelle. For dining and dancing, browse Rue St. Paul's or the Grande Allée, the Champs Élysées of Québec.
Outside of the city center, the Aquarium of Quebéc and the Montmorency Falls offers hours of family entertainment.

10 THINGS TO DO IN QUEBEC CITY | Travel Guide
If you want to experience a Canadian city with a bit of French flair, then you need to visit Quebec City.
Situated on the banks of the St. Lawrence River, this is a town with good looks and a big heart.
We only had a day and a half there, but that was enough time to wander the cobbled streets, catch some street performances, and visit many of the top attractions.
The following is a little video of our time in historic Quebec City, Canada highlighting the top 10 things to do and see in this top attractions travel guide:

1) Plains of Abraham
We are no standing on the Plains of Abraham and this is the location where the battle between the English and the French was fought. This was the battle that ultimately determined the fate of North America.
This battle was part of the Seven Years' War and it would be the deciding factor over the fate of New France, influencing the later creation of Canada.
2) Citadelle
We just finished visiting the Citadelle and if you get the chance I would suggest you try to be here by ten in the morning. That is when they have the changing of the guard ceremony and it is a lot of fun to watch. They even have a pet goat that takes part so it really is a lot of fun.
The Citadelle is the largest British fortress in North America.
3) Chateau Frontenac
Now we're visiting Chateau Frontenac, one of the most famous hotels in all of Canada. It is a stunner. It is just absolutely beautiful. We're trying to capture it from different vantage points.
The hotel was designed by American architect Bruce Price. It was one of many château style hotels built for the Canadian Pacific Railway company with the goal of promoting luxury tourism. Today, a night at the Frontenac starts at $379 dollars.
4) Terrasse Dufferin
This boardwalk that we are currently standing on is called Terrasse Dufferin and it is a great place for a stroll. You can catch some street performers, eat some ice cream and you also get some great views of the river below.
The promenade sits right outside the Chateau Frontenac and it is 425 meters in length. You can also catch a funicular nearby which takes you to the Old Lower Town.
5) Quartier Petit Champlain
Petit Champlain is a neighbourhood located in the Old Lower Town. It is quite picturesque, especially when viewed from the Breakneck Stairs. The narrow cobbled streets are lined with small shops and cafes. It's a really fun neighbourhood to explore with a camera in hand.
6) Basilica Notre Dame de Quebec
The Basilica Notre Dame de Quebec is the oldest church in the Americas north of Mexico. If you want to get a sneak peek at the crypt, you'll have to sign up for a guided tour.
7) Rue St. Paul
We're now walking along Rue St. Paul and this is a great place to browse for antiques and you can buy some souvenirs.
Just don't leave your visit to the end of the day because you may find that a lot of the shops have closed.
8) Museum of Civilization
The Museum of Civilization is a great place to learn about the Aboriginal peoples of Quebec.
9) Port of Quebec
We're here now in the Port Area. This is a great place to take a ferry. A lot of people come here to exercise, to fish and just to enjoy the views of the St. Lawrence river. It is a really relaxing place.
The Port of Quebec is the oldest in all of Canada and it played an important role in developing the region. Today you'll find that cruises have replaced much of the former freight traffic.
10) Catch a Street Performance
And lastly, you can't come to Quebec City and not catch a street performance! The city celebrates its performers and you'll often find acts taking place in the town square and parks. Grab a seat for some live entertainment and don't forget to leave a tip at the end!
And that concludes our brief but very enjoyable trip to Quebec City! We hope that you enjoyed this video and that it will help inspire your Canadian travels.
