Observatoire de la Capitale was selected by the editors of the Petit Futé – Ville de Québec 2010 travel guide, where it is listed as a recommended attraction.
This updated and enhanced edition of Petit Futé highlights the best that the capital has to offer. The Observatory is singled out in the Visiter la ville category.
The guide’s editors are full of praise for this exceptional site: “Looking out from atop Québec City’s tallest building allows an immediate understanding of the city’s history […]. What’s more, the sense of distances helps in planning an itinerary for one’s stay in the city. Needless to say, the view is spectacular.”
In addition to the Observatory, the practical 160-page guide recommends a great variety of restaurants, bars, and hotels, and suggests a number of excursions in the capital. The guide sells for $15.75 at all good bookstores in Québec.
The Petit Futé team criss-crossed the capital and its surrounding area to identify Québec City’s top attractions, and we are proud that the Observatory is one of them!
