Québec-Lévis ferry
This winter, treat yourself to a unique outing! Come admire Québec from the St. Lawrence River. Slowly navigate the distance of nearly a kilometre separating the two shores of the river while discovering a grandiose panorama. This way you can relive the wonder of first explorers. The round-trip crossing, about 40 minutes long, will allow you to immortalise these precious moments with exceptional photos.

An Exceptional and Affordable Crossing

Taking the ferry is more than a means of transportation; it’s an activity in of itself. Surprise your family and friends, or even your guests, by inviting them aboard for an original getaway. For lovers, there’s nothing more romantic than holding each other on the deck, under the lit sky of Québec.

Nice and warm in the passenger’s lounge, go back in time with an exhibition that uncovers the history of the river ferry between Québec and Lévis. Also, check out the biographies of Alphonse Desjardins and Lomer Gouin and learn why their names are so proudly worn by these boats today.

Reliable, High-Performance Ferries

Québec-Lévis ferry

Each ferry is unique. The play of light on water during the day, the reflection of city lights in the evening, maritime traffic, tides, wind, moving ice. Perhaps you will get to witness the ships’ great power that allows them to safely navigate ice. Nothing can stop them; over 25,000 crossings take place every year. Every day, the teams are ready to welcome you.

40 Years at Your Service

Created in 1971, the Société des traversiers du Québec is celebrating 40 years of existence. The Québec-Lévis ferry was the first to become part of the vast network for maritime passenger transportation that would become the Société des traversiers du Québec; today, it includes 11 ferries and 2 services along the St. Lawrence River. Two million passengers try the experience every year at the Québec-Lévis ferry. Climb aboard and see!
