Getting around – In Town
Get around safely and sustainably with Réseau de transport de la Capitale (RTC), Québec City’s public transit system.
RTC offers passes for unlimited travel on weekends or for five consecutive days—very handy for getting around the city during a convention.
Given the Convention Centre’s terrific location amidst major hotels and steps away from Old Québec, walking is always a great active transportation option.
