Would love to have 2 days in this historic city. Did not get to make it to Montmorency Falls and regret it. However, if cruising south you will be able to see it from the ship unless it is dark. Just spent the day walking around the historic section.

The HopOn-Hop Off double decker bus is the best way to see the city. I like to do the whole circuit, then do it again, getting off at places that interested me during the first circuit.

Quebec was one of the main reason for me to take this cruise. It did not disappoint. Totally enjoyed the European feel and charm it offered. We took the walking excursion tour in the morning, and then explored it ourselves for the rest of the day. We also took an excursion to see the countryside and the Montmorency Fall the next day. Totally enjoyed it and walking the bridge over the Falls was a great experience. Wonderful!!

At this point in your cruise, you will be treated to the French-Canadian culture. Quebec City is a place rich in history. The cuisine is different but flavourful. With few exceptions, the people are friendly. Prices are reasonable. If you want to practice speaking French, don't be too disappointed. First of all, you will find that folks all across Quebec speak a "patois" that varies from community to community. It varies to the extent that folks on one side of the city can barely comprehend those from the other part of town. It is not the Parisian french you learned in school. Another "problem" with trying to speak French is that you may find that the folks here will speak to you in English. This may prove to be a relief to many travelers. Do not miss visiting the Citadel that overlooks the city. It is a remnant of the days of passenger rail travel in Canada.
