This is a definite tourist gimmick…read more The Funiculaire in Quebec City is a short but historic vertical railway that connects the Upper Town, to the Lower Town, of Quartier Petit-Champlain. This is sometimes an essential mode of transport that allows for the navigation of the steep terrain to the lower town. When the weather is not bitterly cold and ice in abundance on the walkway, you can honestly walk down but given it was my first time in this part of Montreal, I needed to give this a woohoo whirl. $3 for a ride each way is steep for the 20 second ride. Even though it might make sense on a really chilly day in Montreal I'd say skip the ride in both directions. Going downhill is definitely easier so if you are up top, just walk down. There was nobody else wanting to take the cab up or down when I went, probably because most everyone else just walked the path on the day I went. At minimum it was efficient and easy to get in the cab.

It was worth it to experience views of the St. Lawrence River and lower town. The funicular first opened in 1879, but was modernized in the 1990's.

Quebec City's airport is on the smaller side, but it definitely feels like it's in the middle of a…read morerefresh. Parts of the terminal look newly renovated, and more work is clearly underway. One big downside: the lounge is closed for renovations until Summer 2026, which is a long wait if you were hoping for a quiet, upgraded space. Food options are limited at the moment. Aside from A&W, you're looking at vending machines and a small café. Tip: bring a snack or something light with you--choices are slim and non existent. On the bright side, the seating layout is surprisingly thoughtful. There are armchairs, workstations, and group-friendly areas, so you can choose your vibe. There's also a Relay store and a duty-free shop to wander through, though overall the terminal can feel a bit quiet and, honestly, a little boring. If you're looking for downtime, though, it's perfect--I was practically half asleep waiting for my flight. Security and check‑in were a breeze. The airport wasn't busy at all, which made the whole process smooth and stress‑free. A simple, calm airport--nothing flashy, but easy to navigate and comfortable enough if you come prepared.

I realized I had never written a review for YQB, the international airport for Quebec City…read more This review is bifurcated in a way. A more recent visit, where I went here to pick up and drop off a car, gave me an opportunity to spend more time looking at its physical plant. I have only flown into YQB once, and it was on a connecting flight coming in from the U.S. It was a little dated, and has since been spruced up, but it definitely worked. What you have at YQB is the typical curved or boomerang shaped terminal along a curved access road, parking and rental cars in a structure across the street, and a covered enclosed bridge connecting the two. That's because it can be very cold here! The terminal is very clean and, with tall ceilings, it is airy and breathes well. Everything is clearly marked. There are many places to sit and charge your device. The bathrooms are very clean. As can be expected, one part of the terminal's sweep is where you check-in and another is where you exit from baggage claim. It's not overly busy because, while it's Quebec's regional capital, it's also its secondary city. Quebec City is not Canada's national capital. That said, I have either gotten to Quebec City from Montreal via car or have taken VIA Rail that has its terminus at the city's impressive Gare du Palais. The airport is a little far from the historic center, and perched right above its suburb of Ste.-Foy. That's why there's a hotel strip in Ste.-Foy. Transit connecting the historic center and YQB is not so linear. That would be one demerit. The other is the narrow spacing of parking spaces in the parking garage and at the rental car center. One has to "ding" them for that.

There's not much to say about the functionality of the facility itself which readily met its…read morepurpose for us.  But what can and should be said is that it is the most scenic and striking port we've experienced to date on 9 cruises.   On arrival, you are treated to an awesome view as you approach the old city, the steep hill that the newer city is built upon, and the world famous Fairmont le Chateau Frontenac hotel.  When docked, on the starboard side where we were fortunate enough to be at, you are treated to a stunning and beautiful view of the hotel all day and all night and you can almost reach out and touch it.   The disembarkation process here was also smooth and efficient for what that's worth.  We ended up going off to a post-cruise shore excursion around Quebec City that also took us to the airport (YQB) for a late afternoon flight.  The port terminal building is fairly large but well organized and there were quite a few buses parked and ready for various tours as well as direct airport transfers.  I'll go with 5 stars mainly because of the unforgettable beauty of the port's location.

Having read in more than one place that the Quebec-Lévis ferry is something one should do I did it…read more I won't say it was bad but neither will I say it's a must. A few days earlier a guide at a place in Old Quebec had mentioned hailing from Lévis and literally described it as a place with nothing to do and no reason to go. My readings had indicated that the sole reason to go was to see the view of Quebec City from the ferry so when the ferry landed in Lévis seeing Lévis wasn't amongst my desires. The ferry is inexpensive and tickets are purchased on site before boarding. Crossing the St. Lawrence to Lévis takes less than 20 minutes and the ride is pleasant and stable. With lots of outdoor (and indoor) seating, feeling the breeze is as good a reason as any for a ride. At Lévis one must disembark the ferry regardless of whether a return trip is planned. Taking only a brief look at the town - from the ferry terminal - provided ample information that there was no real reason for me to hang out there. If I'd missed this ferry ride - and the view of the city from the river - I'd not have been disappointed but having done it, I have no regrets.
