Travel to Québec, Canada

I have lived on the west coast of Canada my entire life and I’m ashamed to say I have yet to make it to the east coast. In two weeks, though, I will be making my way to both Québec City and Montréal to write a few articles on the cities.

I don’t have my itinerary for Montréal yet, but the Quebec City trip looks pretty neat. I’m staying in “Old Quebec” in both the Hôtel Champlain and the Auberge Place d’Armes. They both look very nice and full of Old World charm.

The Service de Limousines Guy Samson picks me up at the airport and takes me to the Hôtel Champlain for the night. I wake up and go on a sightseeing tour of Montmorency Falls in the Parc de la Chute-Montmorency, and the Ile d’Orléans.

The next day I’m free to check out the Espace 400 anniversary activities in the Old Port, the Passengers exhibit that pays homage to Québec City and it’s history over the last 400 years, the Ephemeral Gardens, and possibly a river cruise to see the city from the water. That night I check out the east coast sushi scene at YUZU Sushi-Bar.

I have one more free day in Québec City to visit the galleries and other attractions. I’ll also catch the end of the Jazz Festival, so I’m hoping to get to some of those shows as well. The next day I take the train to Montréal and a whole new experience begins!
