We felt very safe walking around. Everyone greeted us in French, but, was able to speak English. Best to park your car and walk around with a map. Food was mainly very expensive in the lower and uppertown, but, you can find some cheaper places to eat using TripAdvisor. Lots of history and cool stone walls. Be prepared to walk... More

We fell in love with old Quebec! It's absolutely fabulous. It's so different from any other place I had seen in Canada.

Lots to see; so much history. Easy to walk around the walled City and see all the sights. Beautiful and clean. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Restaurants were very good.

Visited in June 2013 and really enjoyed it. Yes it is touristy, but so what? So many cool sites (buildings, churches, statues, etc...) to see, and so many stores to browse in. There are SO many places to eat. We stayed 5 nights and had a hard time deciding where to eat dinner every night because there were so many... More

the city is beautiful and old...but a few too many boutiques for us.we had a lot of trouble with parking..it's $2. for half and hr and we ended up spending $18,for the day..went to 3 different lots.and it was confusing...but we enjoyed our visit once parked..

The location is obviously touristy, too many expensive clothing shops and tacky souvenir places, and food costs a bomb, the cheaper fare is mostly junk food. The cathedral is lovely, so is the funicular going to Lower Town, and under the boardwalk is interesting but disappointing (not much else to see, just excavations and plaques to read.) Enjoyed the buskers... More

I haven't been here since I was a kid but still love it. The small shops and cafe's, the old buildings the historical landscapes. It's all amazing and needs to be experienced. Anyone who loves history or even just walking through a unique cultural area will love it.

No trip to Quebec is complete without a tour through Old Quebec, especially a first time trip. Allow plenty of time because there is lots to explore. Allow more time if you like to shop because there are a ton of shops with all kinds of temptations! A thoughtful touch is maps are posted in various locations to help you... More

This is a beautiful area, steeped in history and old architecture, beautiful shops to suit any taste, definitely worthy of a bucket list addition. A bit pricey but costs nothing to browse. Be sure to try poutine and pastries!
