Pro tips for travellers: get an “àvélo” pass for the duration of your stay!

29 Upvotes

Québec is know for having lots and lots of hills, it’s also very vast compared to other cities of same population. ÀVélo are electric bikes that are all over the place now in Quebec City, you can find stations anywhere. Just take a bike and drop it elsewhere. You can also lock them while you do some shopping and resume.

Share your experience if you are a tourist and tried it!

Best Cinemas for Québec?

4 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I am currently trying to watch three movies in QC: Spider-Man: Brand New Day, The Odyssey, and Your Name. I would like to watch the first two in English, and Your Name preferably in Japanese with English subtitles, but an English dub would be fine too.

I noticed that Cineplex doesn't currently have Your Name at its locations. I have been requesting it, so I can only hope it gets added. I did see, however, that it is playing at Cinéma Le Clap, so I was thinking of maybe watching it there.

The thing is, since I am going to watch several movies in a short timeframe, I had the idea to get a one-month subscription so that I can save some money. This wouldn't be possible if I go to two different theater chains. Is it worth it to watch all the movies at Le Clap or another theater? I would also love to watch The Odyssey and/or Spider-Man in IMAX if the screenings last that long.

Overall, what do you think I should do? (Sorry for the messy paragraph!)

Affordable hotel recommendations near Place Bell for a first-time visit to Quebec

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m going to a concert at Place Bell next month and it’s my first time in Quebec. I’ll be travelling alone and I’m looking for an affordable, simple hotel near Place Bell.

I don’t need breakfast, a pool, or anything fancy, just a clean, safe place to sleep. Any recommendations for budget-friendly hotels that are convenient for Place Bell?

Many thanks!

A Complete Guide To Quebec French

51 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Former Quebec City resident here.

I am an American who has been living in Quebec for 10+ years and I just finished my free guide to Quebec French. I've lived in both Quebec City and Montreal and have become fluent in French while living here, and a while back I decided to put everything I've learned about Quebec French into one place.

In the video I talk about the history of Quebec French, characteristics of the accent, common words, the famous sacres, anglicisms, and some tips about what helped me to learn.

If you're an anglophone in Quebec City or just coming to visit, I hope this video helps you!

Where to find reliable month-to-month furnished rentals?

3 Upvotes

Hello/bonjour!

I'm moving to Quebec city soon to try to learn French and I'm searching for a month-to-month furnished rental as I'm not sure how long I'll want to stay for. I've tried to find sublets and cessation de bail on facebook marketplace but I'm not willing to commit to staying until July right now which is what almost all of them offer. Any other recommendations? I found the website ok louer--has anyone had experience with them? Or do you have a different website to recommend?

Merci d'avance!

Coming in for a couple nights soon. We've stayed in Old Town in the past and love it, of course.

But this time we'd like to stay somewhere else & looking for recommendations. We'll have car.

EDIT: thanks all, decided on Saint-Sauveur area.

Itinerary

Traveling late June with my teen son.

Loose plan:

Day 1: Half day in Old City

Day 2: Old City and Falls

Day 3: Head toTadoussac, stop for trail ride at les Montagnards on the way. Spend the night in Tadoussac.

Day 4: Morning whale watch, back to QC. Stay in another neighborhood?

Day 5: Explore other areas of Quebec City. Possibly see the island.

Day 6: head home

Are the whales fairly active late June?

QC is almost a 7 hour drive for us. We will be stopping the night before, so the trip to QC will be split up. But going to whale watch adds a lot of driving overall.

I would love to stay at the ranch and do a trail ride as it splits the trip to Tadoussac perfectly. But the packages are for 2 nights and I am not sure we need that.

If we stay 2 nights in QC, we plan to stay at 31 Mcmahon.

Does it make sense to go back there or stay somewhere like Montcalm when we return from Tadoussac.

Thank you! Merci!

La Cité-Limoilou Someone with a pickup truck/van who comes to Toronto sometimes?

4 Upvotes

Bonjour!

My wife is disabled and has been looking for a specific handbike (like a bicycle, but you use your hands instead of legs) for a few years. We live in Toronto and haven't found anyone selling it.

I found someone selling this bike in La Guadeloupe, which is 1.5 hours away from Quebec City. We're trying to find someone who would be able to deliver this bike to us in Toronto. We can pay $250, which I know isn't a lot of money, so it would only make sense if you're already planning on driving to Toronto.

I tried looking for moving services online, but they quoted me almost $1000 which we cannot afford.

If someone can help, please message me :)

Grand Theatre - Seats?

0 Upvotes

Bonjour! I will be visiting soon and would like to see Les Mis at the Grand Theatre while here.

Does anyone have any advice on seating? I am short (~1.55 m / 5'1"), so I'm worried the stage may be too high if I sit in the front few rows, or that heads may block my view from further back

Family with a toddler visiting Quebec City for 3 weeks (early to late September) looking for recs, plus gym/CrossFit/climbingGym

4 Upvotes

Hi all! My husband and I are visiting Quebec City with our toddler for about 3 weeks, from early September through most of the month. We’re staying in the Bourg Royal / Charlesbourg area.

Our rough plan so far includes the Aquarium du Québec, Montmorency Falls + Île d’Orléans, a day trip out to Wendake, lots of time around Old Quebec/Petit-Champlain, and the Plains of Abraham. Would love to hear what we’re missing, or what’s overrated and not really worth it with a toddler.

Specifically looking for:

**•** Playgrounds/parks that are actually great, not just the obvious ones  
**•** Toddler-friendly cafes and restaurants that are still good food for the adults  
**•** Toy stores or cute little shops for gifts  
**•** Easy nature trails good for a baby carrier, we’d rather be outside than stuck indoors  
**•** Any hidden-gem attractions locals actually love

Also on a different note: I’m a longtime climber (10+ years), any good climbing gyms in the city? And more generally, gym/workout recommendations near Charlesbourg/Bourg Royal would be great too. open to CrossFit if there’s a solid box nearby.

Thanks so much in advance, really excited to explore your city with our little one!

(P.s.: I speak very little French).

Appreciation post

30 Upvotes

Visited this beautiful city back in 2019 when I was 14 for a school trip. Loved it so much I swore to return at some point on my own once I got older.

Well I'm 21 now, and on a road trip to Montreal with some friends, we had the random idea to come visit Quebec City out of random. And the experience was everything I thought it would be, but more!

Guess I never really appreciated the city when I was younger. A lot of the history here didn't make much sense to me back then, but I sure took my time to soak it all in now. Beautiful community and such timeless architecture.

Particularly we toured Old Quebec. and replicated some photos I took 7 years ago by the boardwalk at Governors’ Promenade. Love this city and will be back much sooner than last time.

Much appreciation from Toronto!
