It is impossible to resist the charm of Québec City. Inside the walls of this UNESCO World Heritage Site lies four hundred years of history and culture, and the city often feels more like old-world Europe than modern Canada. Here, living well is an art.

Some of the city’s oldest areas, such as Place-Royal, can be found in the Lower Town, where enticing café’s and restaurants abound. A horse-drawn carriage ride through the cobblestone streets is an enchanting way to see the Upper Town.

Each year the city comes alive with the Québec City Summer Festival and the famous Carnaval, the world’s largest winter festival. The Montmorency Falls, just outside the towering at 83m (272ft), are also worth the visit.

With penetrating valleys and soaring mountains, Charlevoix is a natural wonder. Forged by a meteorite some 250 million years ago, today the area is home to Le Massif, the highest vertical drop east of the Rockies. Travel along the “flavour trail,” the Route des saveurs, to discover best dining in the region.

Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean is a paradise for nature lovers and all manner of outdoor adventure can be found here. Boasting three national parks and the breathtaking Saguenay fjord, this is one of the most spectacularly beautiful places in all of Québec.
