Itinerary
Start your tour of Québec off by exploring the province’s largest city. Located on an island at the confluence of the Ottawa and St. Lawrence Rivers, Montreal is a cultural and foodie powerhouse with so much to offer visitors.
Visit the well-preserved tow...
At its heart, Montréal is a city of neighbourhoods and each one has its own personality. Spend the day finding your favourite spots in the city or hit up the top must-sees such as legendary shopping mecca Rue Sainte-Catherine, the Old Port or Saint Joseph’s Oratory.
Pick up your car rental and leave behind the bustle of Montréal for the bucolic country roads of Québec’s Lanaudière region. Enjoy sweeping views of fields and tree-covered hills on the drive to Saint-Michel-Des-Saints, a picturesque village perched on the shores of t...
Spend the day experiencing the beauty of your accommodation, head out on the water or perhaps take a day trip. Discover the local farms, explore the rolling foothills or take a drive through the scenic Laurentian mountains. The varied and beautiful landscapes of the L...
Continue exploring the Québec countryside as you leave Saint-Michel-Des-Saints for Saint Paulin. Your destination for the night is the stunning eco resort of the Auberge Le Baluchon, set on 200 acres of agricultural land and surrounded by another 800 acres of wilderne...
Relaxing and enjoying nature is the agenda for today. Swimming, hiking, mountain biking and tennis are all available locally. You can also drive to the nearby Magnan Falls to see the meandering waterfall and learn about the region’s hydro-electric production.
Accommodation: Auberge Le Baluchon
Today you’ll drive north to the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean area, home of the “Bleuets” as locals like to call themselves in reference to the many blueberries that grow in the area. If you happen to arrive during blueberry season, be sure to try some of the locally grown ...
The region centres around the large Lac Saint Jean and the Saguenay River and there are plenty of great spots to explore. You can visit the historic village of Val-Jalbert, an authentic 1920s village frozen in time, to see what life was like for workers and their fami...
Drive along the north banks of the Saguenay to Tadoussac. As the countryside gives way to hills, you’ll know you’ve entered the area where the Saguenay Fjord begins. Along the river, the cliffs are higher and the scenery is more dramatic. If time permits, head off the...
Your included whale watching excursion into the St. Lawrence Estuary can be on one of the larger cruise ships or aboard a light vessel such as a zodiac – the choice is yours. The Estuary is home to dozens of marine species, including a pod of beluga whales, minke whal...
Cross the Saguenay Fjord on the free ferry (be on the lookout for whales!) from Tadoussac to Baie-Ste-Catherine, the start of the spectacular Charlevoix region of Québec. As you make your way through the region to Québec City, there are plenty of worthwhile stops and ...
There’s no other city in Canada quite like the historic Québec City, which feels more European than North American. This walkable city has pedestrian-friendly cobblestone streets, stone fortifications with archways that make for incredible pictures and the castle-like...
Cross the St. Lawrence by bridge this morning and make your way into the foothills of the Appalachians, where cliffs can reach up to 1000 metres. Your journey today will take you to the historic Eastern Townships of Québec, where some of Canada’s most picturesque coun...
Fresh air, beautiful lakes and charming villages await as you spend the day taking in all that the Eastern Townships have to offer. Get out in nature, spend some time learning about the local terroir at one of the many farms and restaurants or wander around the scenic downtowns of some of the local towns.
Accommodation: Hotel Cheribourg
