Quebec City is the top tourist destination in Canada

According to Quebec City Tourism, the city was the #1 tourist destination on the list of top cities to visit in Canada during the week of July 18 to 24, the first week of the construction holiday. The occupancy rate for hotels in Quebec City during this period was 58.7%.

Quebec City currently sits above Vancouver, Halifax, Ottawa and Toronto. Montreal’s hotel occupancy for the same period was approx. 36%.

Last summer, Quebec City was named the best city to visit in Canada for the fifth year in a row by Travel + Leisure magazine.

Quebec’s Deputy Premier Geneviève Guilbault shared the news in a statement on Twitter, congratulating all the city’s partners on the achievement.

“More visitors than anywhere else in the country chose our magnificent Quebec City, excellent news for our National Capital! Congratulations to Quebec City Tourism and to all our partners for their efforts, which are bearing fruit!”
