Description
Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.
Your tour begins as you board your vehicle for a scenic, 30-minute drive to Lac-Beauport, a popular resort comfortably nestled at the bottom of a natural valley, less than 15 minutes away from Old Québec. A hardwood and conifer forest surrounds Lac Beauport, located in the heart of the Laurentian Mountains. Upon arriving you'll snap a photo or two and then make your way to Montmorency Falls via the town of Sainte-Brigitte-de-Laval, a charming natural setting only 15 minutes from downtown Québec City.
Beside these 272-foot high waterfalls, you'll savor the breathtaking views and witness the powerful forces of natures as the water of the Montmorency River roars down the cliff to eventually meet with the St. Lawrence River. Your tour continues with a stop at Manoir Montmorency located at the top of the falls. You'll enjoy a complimentary snack of coffee, tea and cookies, and browse in its unique boutiques before departing for a Sugar Shack on Ile d'Orleans via the village of Sainte-Petronille toward the western end of the island.
The Sugar Shack offers a demonstration on maple sugar production and refinement. Before departing for the pier, you're welcome to sample the maple taffy.
