Website: Québec–Lévis Ferry Online
The Québec–Lévis ferry (le bac) is available year-round and takes its passengers from one side of the Saint Lawrence River (le fleuve Saint-Laurent) to the other. A short, 10-15 minute journey will take you from Quebec City (la ville de Québec) to the town of Lévis?.
Jump aboard the M.V. Alphonse-Desjardins or the 'M.V. Lomer-Gouin on the shore of Old Quebec (Vieux-Québec) for a remarkable view of Quebec City (la ville de Québec) and some time off your feet. These ferry boats can hold an astounding 700 passengers and 54 vehicles, covering the distance across the river in as little as 10 minutes.
On board, passengers can view an exhibition in the lounge, which relates the history of the Québec-Lévis ferry through models, photos, and sculptures. Or browse the large photos of both shores decorating the top deck, allowing you to identify specific attractions on the shores both day and night from the ferry.
Group discounts are available, though reservations are required for buses. For accurate schedule information, contact the company.
