Getting around Québec
Québec boasts vast road and airline networks that provide service to the entire territory. Travellers can easily go from one major city to another, for example, from Montréal to Québec City, by car, bus, train or plane. A number of ferries, moreover, link the two shores of the St. Lawrence River, and boat service is available to communities in the Îles-de-la-Madeleine and the Basse-Côte-Nord (lower north shore) region. Aboriginal communities in Nunavik can be easily reached by plane.
