Quebec City → Old Quebec: key facts

A private transfer from Quebec City Airport (YQB) to Old Quebec costs €65 per car for 1–3 passengers and €95 per van for 4–8. It is a fixed price for the whole vehicle, the same amount you pay when you book. The road distance is 17 km; the drive takes about 25 min with clear roads, so plan on 25–35 min at busy times.

Where the driver waits: The driver waits in the arrivals area of the Québec City Jean Lesage terminal, after baggage claim (and customs for flights from abroad), holding a sign with your name; the car is parked in front of the terminal on Rue Principale. We track your flight and the first 60 minutes after landing are free; the driver helps with your luggage.

Jean Lesage Airport lies in the western part of Québec City, about 18 km by road from Place d'Armes in Old Quebec. The usual route follows Autoroute 40 (Félix-Leclerc) east, then Autoroute 73 or Boulevard Charest towards Saint-Roch, before climbing into the walled upper town through one of the gates such as Porte Saint-Louis or Porte Saint-Jean. There are no toll roads. Weekday rush hours on the autoroutes and snowstorms in winter are the main causes of delay.

Old Quebec is split between the Upper Town, inside the stone fortifications around the Château Frontenac, Place d'Armes and Rue Saint-Louis, and the Lower Town at the foot of the cliff with Petit Champlain and Place Royale. The two are linked by the funicular and the Breakneck Stairs. Many lanes in the Lower Town are narrow or pedestrian, so cars stop at the nearest street that allows access. Outside the walls, Grande Allée, the Parliament Building and the Plains of Abraham are a short walk away, and the Old Port and Gare du Palais lie below the north side of the walls.

Public transport instead: Réseau de transport de la Capitale (RTC) bus 80 from Stop 7300 Terminal (Principale - Terminal), Québec City Jean Lesage Airport to Downtown Québec City via the Les Saules terminus (connections to high-frequency routes 800 and 801). Réseau de transport de la Capitale (RTC) bus 76 from Stop 7300 Terminal (Principale - Terminal) to Sainte-Foy bus and train stations (connections to routes 800 and 801 to downtown), 1 change.
