Discover the most beautiful sites of Quebec City
Just a few steps from the hotel Manoir d’Auteuil you have access to a totally unique guided tour and have an opportunity to visit the emblematic Château Frontenac.
Far from being limited to the Château Frontenac, this guided tour will take you to Dufferin Terrace, Notre-Dame-de-Québec Cathedral Basilica, the Place Royale and the Petit-Champlain district where you can admire the architecture that is a product of our heritage going back to the 17th century.
The Dufferin Terrace
Just next to the Château Frontenac and at the foot of the Citadel of Quebec City, Dufferin Terrace, one of the city’s lookout points, offers an exceptional view of the St. Lawrence River and cities and towns that line the river’s southern shore. This long wooden terrace, where visitors can take advantage of the stupendous view, was named Dufferin at the end of the 19th century in honor of the Governor General of Canada at the time.
Notre-Dame-de-Québec Cathedral Basilica
Located in the heart of Old Quebec, the Notre-Dame-de-Québec Basilica-Cathedral has been designated as a National Historic Site by the government of Canada as well as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is also the first parish church in North America.
You can meet your tourist guides behind the Château Frontenac at the Princesse-Louise Kiosk and take part in a tour where you can learn more about our architecture, our heritage and our history. A journey through time, from New France to today, over 400 years of history for you to discover!
