I'm not sure exactly how a whole preserved historic neighborhood can be describe as a tourist's trap. Maybe some particular spots, like Place Jacques-Cartier or the Old Port, because of all the restaurants, activities and the stores that cater to tourists, but it is still a genuine historic surrounding that has very few equivalent on the continent. I always was under the impression that a tourist's trap is of no value whatsoever and meant only to... trap tourists and deceived them. Maybe I got it wrong.
