Quebec City - getting around, Canada

Displayed:   times.

If you stay in the Old Town, there's not much reason to do anything except travel on foot. There is a public transportation system (http://www.stcuq.qc.ca/), of course. Driving in the Old Town can be tricky, since the cobblestone streets were designed for narrow 17th-century horsecarts rather than 21st-century SUVs. Other parts of the city have the same heinous road state as other cities in Quebec.

If your feet fail you, use the funicular to go between the upper and lower parts of the Old Town. 1.50 CDN will get you from near the base of the Breakneck Stairs back up to the front of the Chateau Frontenac. This is well worth it if you have small children or large packages.
