Itinerary

  • Day 1

    Montreal

    Salut! Welcome to Montreal – the largest province in Canada known for its French-speakers, European architecture, narrow streets and the Saint Lawrence River that the city sits on. Your adventure starts with a welcome meeting at 2 pm today. Montreal is the largest city in Quebec, named after Mt. Royal – the triple-peaked hill at its centre. The neighbourhoods here all offer unique draw cards, with French cobblestone streets and bohemian vibes. If you arrive early, maybe visit Mount Royal Park or stroll through the Jean Talon Market. After the welcome meeting, head out for a walking tour of Old Montreal with a local guide. Take in the varied architecture throughout the city, stopping at the Bank of Montreal, City Hall and the Notre-Dame Basilica. Learn about thecity’s founding and the eras of history that followed. Tonight, maybe join your group for dinner and get to know each other.

  • Day 2

    Baie-Saint-Paul

    Wake up early and drive to Camilien-Houde Belvedere on Mount Royal for a panoramic view of the city as the sun rises over the horizon. Then, travel to Mile End, where you’ll stop for a Montreal bagel and a coffee – these bagels are world famous and quite different from the classic New York bagel. Then drive to Ile d'Orleans – an island known for its rural landscape, agriculture and fresh produce. When you arrive, stop for lunch at La Cantine chez Mag. Maybe try lobster poutine before continuing your drive around the island. Taste locally made maple and stop at a winery for a taste of the local drop before continuing onto Baie Saint Paul for the night.

  • Day 3

    Baie-Saint-Paul

    This morning is free for you to explore Baie Saint Paul at your own pace. Maybe find a local cafe for breakfast or a coffee, or visit Musee d’art contemporain de Baie-Saint-Paul (the contemporary art museum). Later today, you’ll travel to Grands-Jardins National Park for an easy-going afternoon hike. As you follow the Pinede Trail, learn how the national park is one of the core areas of the Charlevoix Biosphere Reserve, recognised by UNESCO for its ecological value. Tonight, if the weather is good, maybe unwind with a drink at the beach as you watch the sunset.

  • Day 4

    Tadoussac

    Travel to Baie Eternite in Saguenay Fjord National Park. When you arrive, hike the Meander and Falaises Path Loop. As you walk along the trail, look for wildlife (especially birds!) and take in the views of the surrounding fjords, towering cliffs and the eastern end of the Saguenay River. Then, enjoy some free time to explore the town at your own pace. If there's time this afternoon, head to L’Anse a Tabatiere for a short hike before continuing onto La Baie for the night.

  • Day 5

    Tadoussac

    This morning, travel to Tadoussac. Along the way, stop at Baie-Sainte-Marguerite in Saguenay National Park, known for frequent sightings of the beluga whale at the mouth of the Sainte-Marguerite River. Then, continue to Bergeronnes, where you'll sit down for a picnic of classic Quebec foods like cheese, breads and charcuterie meats. After, you’ll join an exciting whale watching boat tour. As you cruise on the waters within the Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park, look out for the 13 species of whale that call this place home – including fin whales, humpback whales, porpoises, harbor seals and beluga whales. Learn about the marine life in their natural habitat from a local naturalist guide. Later, continue to Tadoussac where the rest of the night is free for you to explore the village at your own pace.

  • Day 6

    Quebec City

    Spend the morning exploring Tadoussac Village at your own pace, before travelling to Quebec. Along the way, visit Montmorency Falls – this waterfall runs into the St Lawrence River and is taller than Niagra Falls! When you arrive in Quebec, settle into your accommodation before continuing to Wendake. Here, you’ll meet with a native storyteller at Huron-Wendat Museum, sit by three hearth fires in the traditional long house and hear myths and legends of the region.

  • Day 7

    Quebec City

    Head out on a walking tour of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Old Quebec City this morning with a local guide. Walk along the narrow cobblestone streets and discover the European charm of the buildings that make up this city. The rest of today is free to explore this city however you like. Tonight, maybe head out to dinner with your group to celebrate a trip well-travelled.
