About the Lévis – Québec crossing
The southbound trip is the one to take with a camera. Pulling away from Lévis, the Old Québec skyline opens up in a single sweep instead of arriving piecemeal the way it does from the road, and the 12-minute crossing is almost exactly the time it takes for the Château Frontenac to go from a shape on the cliff to something you are standing under. Around 30 sailings run each day, all year, so the return leg rarely needs planning. The terminal on the Québec side lands you in the Petit-Champlain quarter at the base of the Old Town — the Escalier Casse-Cou and the funicular are both a short walk away, which makes this the easiest car-free approach to the historic district. Bicycles are carried, and the crossing is a standard link in cycling itineraries running along both shores of the St. Lawrence.
