★ ★ ★
Old-world streets first, then walkable neighborhoods. Quebec City for cobblestones and old-city wandering; Montreal for bagels, cafes, and the city finish.
Eight nights to slow down, eat well, walk a lot, and observe forty in two cities that know how to mark a moment.
I · The Plan
The window, the vibe, the why-September.
II · Where We'll Stay
Old Quebec first, Montreal second, with two queen beds where we can get them.
III · What We'll Eat
Bagels, smoked meat, and a dinner worth dressing up for.
IV · Where We'll Escape
Wine country, market towns, and a countryside day.
V · Getting It Done
Flights, lodging, timing, and the open questions.
