Mis- information
The listing for the Auberge St. We were disappointed in the inaccuracies in the information regarding Quebec City. Antoine indicated two levels of parking (valet and self park); in fact the hotel only offers valet parking and for considerably less than listed in the book. The hours for at least one of the tourist attractions were not correct. The biking information does not include the nice trail in Levis accross the St. Lawrence and accessible by ferry (no car required); instead, the book sends you to an island that requires a car and does not have traffic free paths.


Traveling to Quebec? Donýt forget your guide.
Having this book handy in your backpack will make your walking tours, dinning and staying a truly unforgettable experience. As many Frommerýs traveling books, this one will help the reader to get along the city and take advantage of his travel. It is amazing how it describes to the detail many places that no other way you would consider visiting. Even though Frommerýs is a guarantee istelf, consider buying a better city map to get along, since the one in the book is a little confusing and incomplete.


A great help in enjoying two wonderful Canadian cities
It was easy to read and find specific information. In preparing for a trip to Montreal and Quebec, I was pleasantly surprised to find a book that covered both cities. The different maps were very helpful while walking around both cities -- although I used actual road maps for driving directions. Keeping in mind that having two cities means less information about each -- I found the information was the right amount to help us make important decisions or ask the right questions when we made reservations. It certainly will help you find the "must see" spots as it provides recommendations for a one-, two- or three-day visit. I often read the short description of a site aloud before we visited. We changed our hotel reservations based on the book. As a result, we saved $10 per night (which more than paid for the book) and got free meals for the children -- a huge savings over three days. Bottomline -- a good, easy-to-use book with valuable information -- especially for first or second time visitors.
