Experience the truly unique Québec City and Montréal
T
he province of Québec is truly a unique land in Canada. Unique for its geography, history and culture, Québec’s warmth,
authenticity and intensity are all within easy reach. At just under a seven-hour flight from the UK, Québec is closer than you think and your clients will be wowed and seduced by this accessible and diverse region. Montréal and Québec City are great
for shopping and cuisine and are also gateways to Québec’s great outdoors. Québec is a perfect blend of French and British cultures and is famous for its unique festivals, stylish dining experiences and live music scene. Only three hours away from each other
by train or by car, both Montréal and Québec City are ideal for a year-round twin-city break.
MONTRÉAL Montréal is a melting pot of cultures. Explore the cobblestone streets of Vieux Montréal and enjoy its lively café scene. There is an abundance of street
festivals. The Formula 1 Grand Prix du Canada is definitely an exhilarating event not to miss and the International Fireworks Festival will impress all ages. A window on the river, the Old Port
offers unique experiences from jet boating on the Lachine Rapids of the St Lawrence River to witnessing the colourful and vibrant Cirque du Soleil shows.
QUÉBEC CITY 400-year-old Québec City is the only walled city in North America. A Unesco World Heritage Site, its cobbled streets are bursting with fantastic boutiques, unforgettable bistros and historic sights. Walk along the promenade outside
the Hotel Château Frontenac for amazing views over the mighty St Lawrence River and the old Lower Town. Visit Petit Champlain, a commercial shopping street where Québécois arts, crafts and produce are sold.
WHALE-WATCHING Watching a whale burst through the water’s surface is an unforgettable sight and on the St Lawrence River visitors can observe the creatures during a guided cruise by kayak, Zodiac or boat. More than 13 species of marine mammals can be seen here including blue, sperm and humpback whales, white beluga whales, minke and fin whales and dolphins.
The whales are attracted by the river’s
wealth of shellfish and its impressive depth. Whale-watching excursions are daily from May to October.
