Things To Do In The City

Quebec Winter Carnival

The world's largest winter carnival will take place in Quebec during the wedding festivities. The Carnival is a focal point of our wedding experience in beautiful Quebec. Please experience everything the carnival has to offer for an unforgettable stay in Canada.

Old Quebec

Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985, Old Québec is the most intact fortified town north of Mexico, retaining its colonial architecture for over 400 years. It is the historic and cultural heart of Québec City, and the birthplace of French North America. Wander through Petit-Champlain, one of the oldest shopping streets in North America, and discover the historic gems found inside the walls, including the fortified walls and ramparts. Explore the shops and marina of Old Port, and soak in the atmosphere of the Plains of Abraham and Parliament Hill.

Toboganning at Au 1884

Quebec City boasts something you won’t find anywhere else: a toboggan slide right in the center of town. Au 1884 has sat on Dufferin Terrace since 1884—even longer than its neighbour the Chateau Frontenac has been around!

Notre-Dame de Québec Basilica Cathedral

Siberia Station Spa

Sibéria Spa is based on the concept of thermotherapy where guests heat up in sweltering hot saunas and eucalyptus-infused steam rooms before plunging into frigid cold pools, a practice said to increase circulation, eliminate toxins and strengthen the immune system. There are also numerous relaxation areas with wood-burning fireplaces, as well as a yurt and “igloo” complete with hammocks that are perfect for lounging in.

Ice Fishing at Louise Basin Inner Harbor

The Louise Basin inner harbor is also the site of another only-in-Quebec-City experience: ice fishing downtown! The harbor freezes over in the winter, and is transformed into an outdoor recreation area that includes activities like skating and ice fishing. Igloos are set up on the ice to keep away the cold, or you can simply cast your rod in the middle of Village Nordik. Lucky enough to catch a trout? Head over to the adjoining Le Marché du Vieux-Port, where you can get your fish prepared, along with a side of quinoa, wild rice, veggies or salad. Bon appetit!
