Quebec & Montreal

About:

Quebec province is the largest in Canada, famous for the natural beauty of its wildernesses, from the Inuit lands in the north, accessible only by plane, to the 900 km Whale Route in the south. In between lie the vibrant and attractive cities of Quebec, the capital, and Montreal. The official language is French, but English is widely spoken, and these are cities that combine North American high life with a very French sense of style. From the ramparts and cobbles of Old Quebec to the lively arts scene, boutique hotels and cafes of Montreal, these are places to charm and stimulate.

To Do list:

• Dine at Quebec city’s most famous landmark, the Fairmont Chateau Frontenac above the historic Old Town, both a luxury grand hotel and a United Nations World Heritage Site
• Visit the Parc des Rapides, Montreal, home to the Lachine Rapids and the province’s largest heron colony
• Take an atmospheric lantern-lit Ghost Tour through Old Quebec’s narrow streets
• Take your pick from the trendy bars, lounges and cafes in the old working class neighbourhood of the Plateau, Montreal
• Soak up the history of the French and English conquests of Quebec with live actor guides at Artillery Park in the city
