Pretty sure everyone who came here also visited it (I recall the last few did for sure, because I remember explaining where to park for free in the St-Jean-Baptiste neighborhood, a few blocks away from the walled town) because it's a pretty obvious destination, being the capital and oldest city.
I just didn't sell it the way I would to a North American tourist, as I didn't want to disappoint anyone. It's definitely not as exotic for an European visitor.
It's pretty clear that the relatives charms and pros/cons of Quebec City vs Montreal have different weights whether we're talking about a visiting Frenchman or a visiting Oklahoman.
