This was recommended by most Quebec blogs and itineraries, so we thought we we would try it . It is…read moreinexpensive just over $4.00 per person and the boarding process is quick and inefficient. Cars are allowed on the ferry. There is plenty of seating inside and out, and there are two levels . The day we went it was a bit overcast, but the views of Old Quebec City , Governor's Promenade and Chateau Frontenac were wonderful. Most of the travelers on the ferry were tourists and riding the ferry for fun. It was well worth it to sit and enjoy the views.

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.

Everything about the place was A-Ok.

NOT MUCH INFO AT TOURIST INFORMATION CENTER…read more The Information Touristique center is located in a large corner building on Rue Sainte-Anne across from Place d'Armes (near the Monument to Samuel de Champlain and Chateau Frontenac) . It was an odd visit to a tourist information center where one expects to find racks full of maps, brochures and restaurant flyers. The stark and empty room suggested that the information center was winding down after a busy summer tourist season. I saw a few posters on the wall but no brochures. Although I was the only visitor in the center, a woman gave me a number and directed me to stand on a non-existent line to speak to a representative. The representative gave me one map of Old Quebec and when asked, she had no brochures or flyers to give me. Note - some visitors might find the stairs and the heavy front door a challenge when visiting the tourism office.

With help from our hotel concierge, the taxi company was contacted. The driver's shift had ended, so Hypra sent someone else to retrieve my phone and hand-deliver it to me at my hotel with no charge. Amazing. That really saved me from a significant hassle during travel of replacing the phone and restoring all the contacts, photos, etc. I am very happy with their timely and personal response to my phone crisis.
