Quebec City is a little taste of Europe in Canada! From its charming cobblestone streets, historic architecture and chic bistros and cafes, you definitely don't feel like you're in Canada any more. Join me as I tour around some of the cities most famous sites like the Old Town, Dufferin Terrace, the Citadelle, Plains of Abraham and of course Petit Quartier Champlain. Of course you most try some REAL maple syrup when visiting Quebec, as well the national dish of poutine! Hope you enjoy the video and visit this amazing city yourself someday!

The travel health insurance I use - PassportCard Nomads: www.passportcardnomads.com/?ref=alinamcleod

*I highly recommend this travel health insurance because you don't have to pay out of pocket for your medical expenses and they have very reasonably priced long term plans. You can buy the packages for shorter trips as well, but they're especially fantastic for digital nomads and nomads who want regular health insurance when they are abroad. I am an affiliate of this company, but of course use the plans myself.

  • Lucky enough to have see 20 countries. Paris (to me) is the best; Prague pretty close. Then, the lovely city of Quebec. Being from Metropolitan NYC, it’s just a 350-mile drive to Montreal,and a 500-mile ride to Quebec City. A two week vacation to Toronto, Niagara Falls (Canada), Ottawa, Quebec City, and Montreal in 2017 (Canada’s 150th birthday) from June 27 to July 10 is probably the greatest vacation that I’ve ever had. Montreal and Quebec City are awesome cities. BTW, French-Canadian food is AWESOME!
  • I love French so much and such a french region in the new world makes me happy.
  • @smmichie
    Quebec City is the best city in Canada. We found the people of the province of Quebec to be warm and friendly. We really enjoyed our 2 visits there and we are looking forward to our next visit.

    Born and raised in Québec City, left when I was 17 to travel and live all over Canada. I lived in St.John's Newfoundland, Victoria BC, Kelowna BC, Ottawa, visited the Maritimes 3 times, and explored and worked extensively in Alberta and BC. Allthough I love many cities in Canada, I had to see the rest of my country to realize how unique and amazing Québec City is. I now know how lucky I've been to grow up in its streets. It was a no brainer to come back to live here. As for other places to visit, I saw other comments mentionning the Lower Town(Basse-Ville) parts like St-Roch and explaining quite well what it's all about. Another very good commercial avenue to visit would be 3e Avenue in Limoilou. It's often closed to traffic during summer making it 100% pedestrian. Full of small restaurants and bistros, without the touristy shops and souvenirs boutiques. Nothing fancy, but you'll get the real feel of the Basse-Ville. Here's a challenge for you when you go to Limoilou: walk around a bit at random between 1ere Avenue and 4e Avenue and 5e Rue and 18e Rue (within that square) looking at these old proletarian habitats. Pay attention to the balcony railings. You can still find some made with the leftover metal sheets from ice skate factories. The blades for the ice skates were punched out of a metal sheet, and what was left was perfect to make railings as is. You can clearly see rows of blade shapes cut-off. They're pretty old and a testament of the prevalence of hockey in our culture.

    I just got back from Quebec City a day ago. Absolutely some of the most gracious and friendly people one can hope to meet. Gorgeous city!
  • Having visited many cities in North America I must say that Quebec City is by more the most beautiful. It is remarkable that retained its unique cultural identity on a continent that has become so homogenised. Viva la belle provence.
  • @super.zdravko
    How appropriate, western Canada’s classiest YouTuber visiting Canada’s classiest city. Both Quebec City and Montreal are amazing and lots of fun. Cheers from Vancouver. ✌🏻
  • I just came back from Quebec, I am deeply in love ❤ I have to go back in every season
  • @waffles1ca
    There’s no other place in North America like Quebec City, it’s an absolute gem!
  • @Edgeofdavid
    As someone from New England, this city blew my mind as a teenage boy visiting for the first time.
  • @lb9007
    On my intensive travels over decades of flying, I place Québec cité right up there with Dubrovnik, Jérusalem, Rio de Janeiro, Paris and Prague ⚜️😍⚜️
  • I came on vacation to Québec City from Toronto in Now 2008, 15 years ago and I never left. ( perhaps I should call the office to let them know I won't come back). It would take the Army to drive me out of here.
  • Something that needs to be done while visiting Québec City is taking the ferry to Lévis to enjoy the view from the other side of the river.
  • @Jeepin290
    I went back in February. You have no idea of how much I miss Quebec! Best place I’ve ever been, I plan on going many more times.
  • @jpp7783
    The significance of this city can’t be understated. By the time the Mayflower set sail, leading to the settlement of the US, Quebec City was already decades old. And the battle on the plains of Abraham altered the trajectory of all of North American history forever.
  • @tsocanuck
    for me Quebec city old is probably the most beautiful city in Canada
  • @jettsom
    Merci d'être venu dans notre belle Ville de Québec! Au plaisir de vous revoir! You should definitely see it in winter! So different but still quite charming!
  • I visited Quebec City many years ago and am not bilingual and found people warm and very accommodating. Love the old port area. Amazing food. Thank you for a memorable experience!
  • @bapi6643
    Being an American of Quebecois descent I love visiting Quebec City. My ancestors lived in this area from the early 1700’s through the late 1800’s. I plan on visiting again this summer (2024).
