bonjour à vous!! et voila avec mon epouse nous allons partir faire un circuit en motoneige et chien de traineau au quebec !! un reve de gosse!!! ;) voici notre circuit
1er JOUR : Montréal-Saint Michel des Saints (180km/2h20). Transfert en direction de Saint-Michel-des-Saints dans la région de Lanaudière. Laissez-vous envahir par l'atmosphère détendue et joyeuse de la saison hivernale. Un pot de bienvenue vous attend dans le chaleureux bar de l'auberge suivi d'un dîner et de la présentation du séjour. Nuit à St-Michel-des-Saints.
2e JOUR : St-Michel-des-Saints-st alexis des monts (motoneige 120km). Transfert au centre de location de motoneiges. Formalités de prise en charge de votre motoneige et de votre équipement. Vous apprendrez les rudiments de la conduite et les règles de sécurité. Suivez votre guide sur les sentiers pour cette première expérience au guidon de votre machine. Arrêt déjeuner dans un relais motoneige. Nuit au Lac Blanc.
3e JOUR : Lac Blanc (motoneige 100km). Départ en motoneige pour une autre journée riche en émotions. Repas rustique dans une pourvoirie. Initiation à cette curiosité tout à fait particulière : la pêche blanche, c'est à travers un trou creusé dans la glace que vous taquinerez le poisson. Plus tard, vous découvrirez les secrets de la trappe. Reprise de vos bolides pour continuer vers votre relais pour un repas bien mérité et une bonne nuit. Nuit à l'Auberge du Trappeur.
4e JOUR : Lac Blanc-St-Michel-des-Saints (120km). En pleine maîtrise de votre motoneige, une autre journée exceptionnelle vous attend dans la blancheur locale. Déjeuner dans un relais motoneige. Vous arriverez en fin de journée pour la remise des motoneiges avec la tête pleine de joyeux souvenirs. Installation dans une auberge locale pour le dîner au cours duquel vous partagerez les expériences vécues avec vos compagnons de découverte.
5e JOUR : St-Michel-des-Saints au milieu des bois-traîneau à chiens (40km). Sur les judicieux conseils de votre guide-musher, vous vous préparerez pour l'expédition de deux jours de glisse en traîneau. Harnachement des chiens et explication de la conduite. La corde du traîneau se tend, les chiens trépignent d'impatience et réchauffent leurs cordes vocales : le coeur palpite et voilà : c'est le départ. Arrêt en route pour le déjeuner. Nuit dans une pourvoirie rustique, dépaysement assuré. (pas de douche, toilettes extérieures).
6e JOUR : dans les bois-St-Michel-des- Saints traîneau à chiens (40km). Journée de complicité avec vos chiens. Vous aurez vécu des moments d'une harmonie parfaite avec l'environnement enneigé. Vous aurez été tour à tour passager et «musher» dans l'immensité québécoise. C'est totalement ravi que vous arriverez en fin de journée. Dîner et nuit dans une auberge.
7e JOUR : St-Michel-des-Saints-Montréal (180km/2h20). Départ en direction du centre-ville de Montréal. Déjeuner libre et temps libre pour découvrir Montréal et sa ville souterraine tout à votre rythme. Transfert vers l'aéroport et envol vers la France.
puis apres nous restons une semaine à montréal sans groupe sans personne pour decouvrir cette belle ville.
(desoler mais je n arrive plus à enlever la fonction GRAS!! )
Que dois ton prévoir en vêtement pour la bas ?? et à votre avis pour les ravitaillement en eau durant les journées de moto cela se passent comment ??
Je pense acheter un masque de ski mais doit ils avoir des caractéristiques particulière ??
Très beau voyage. Je te recommande d'avoir aussi de très bonnes bottes d'hiver, bien isolées et bien bourrées. Pourquoi ne pas les acheter a ton arrivée à Montréal. Je ne crois pas que tu puisses en acheter d'aussi chaudes par chez toi !!!
Lorsqu'on a froid aux pieds ici en hiver, c'est bien désolant !!! Quand on a froid aux pieds, toute ta journée est fichue et dois tout arrêter pour te réchauffer à l'intérieur ! Pour ce qui est du casque pour la motoneige, je suis presque certaine qu'il est fourni avec ta randonnée, renseigne toi avant d'acheter.
pour le motoneige ils nous fournissent casques et blouson :) maintenant j avoue me poser des questions comme pour l eau comment fait on pour boire dans la journée car j imagine que de simple bouteilles vont geler !! lol vivement le mois de janvier!!! Y a t il un risque qu il n y est pas de neige ??
Vivement la decouverte egalement de montreal helas je viens d apprendre que nous restions 6 jours et non 7 ;) Avez vous des idées de visite etc etc ...
Que faut il avoir absolument la bas genre crème contre le froid etc etc
J'ai fait de la motoneige pendant 10 ans au Yukon.
Tête: Avec ses 2.5cm de polystirène, le canque est très chaud mais prévoir tout de mème une couche de base en polypropylène ou polar mince.
Visage: masque en polar. N'achetz rien, utilisez plutôt un bout de votre écharpe que vous aurez coupé (probablement trop longue pour être sécuritaire)
Mains: gant de soie ou polypro ultra mince comme couche de base pour ne pas que vos doigts gèlent quand vous enlevez la mitaine pour les activités de dextérité fine. Mitaines (appellé mouffles en France) épaisses. Gants épais mais pas trop pour les journées pas froides et la dextérité moyenne.
Corps: Si le pourvoyeur vous prète un blouson de motoneige, prévoyez un polar épais et un bon gilet de laine.
Pieds: Les bottes Sorel -100°C sont encombrantes. -40°C est bien suffisant. Couche de base mince et bas de laine.
Eau: S'il fait -20°C, une outre de type camelbak sous le vêtement chaud. S'il fait -5°C, une bouteille de 350ml dans la poche intérieure et une autre, qu'on boit en premier, dans la poche extérieure.
Si vous bricolez beaucoup dans la neige, vos mains (humide/sec) deviendront sèches ou même gercées alors un petit flacon de crème à main serait un luxe.
Je ne crois pas que tu puisses en acheter d'aussi chaudes par chez toi !!!
J'adore cette phrase... Comme si on ne trouvait pas de vêtements très chauds en France ou ailleurs en Europe ! 🤪
En passant, on a des montagnes en France, des vraies qui culminent à plus de 4000 m, alors le froid on connaît aussi. Et on a quantité de magasins spécialisés qui vendent tout ce qu'il faut pour les climats froids. Là où je suis d'accord, c'est que cela coûtera moins cher ici, grâce au taux de change.
@ boffreaku : Quant à savoir s'il y aura de la neige, et suffisamment, ça va dépendre de la période où tu comptes venir. 🙂
Je suis d'accord avec tous le monde, beau periple en effet ;)
à condition toutefois que tu ai de la neige... pas gagner ça...
Normalement tout l'equipement grand froid te sera fourni donc pas très utile de faire des frais là dedans...
Penses simplement à avoir des vêtement chauds et respirants... le systèmes des couches de vêtements multiples est à privilegier par rapport à un gros pull par expl car cela permet d'emprisonner de l'air entre les couches, ce qui te tiendra chaud😉
Pour quelle utilisation veux-tu t'acheter un masque de ski?... le traîneau?...sur le skidoo pas besoin la visière à rabats du casque en est pourvue...
Sinon si tu tiens à un masque, achètes t'en un solide avec un bon indice de protection, vérifies qu'il soit bien anti-buée
sinon 🤪... En general on préconise le rouge/ orange pour les environnements blancs car cela force les contrastes, mais attention car c'est une couleur qui active aussi les influx nerveux de la faim, ce qui peut être très derangeant...
à condition toutefois que tu ai de la neige... pas gagner ça...
Si, mi-janvier à St-Michel-des-Saints faut pas exagérer... on n'est pas à Montréal ! Y'a déjà la neige au sol à ce jour, alors vraiment aucun problème arrivé le 10 janvier.
ok et en therme de temperature? en ce moment vous avez de la neige ??
Voilà ce qui arrive demain, pour le plus grand bonheur de la population... 😎
Pour les T de début janvier, en moyenne c'est très froid, mais ça dépend des années. Compte du -15/-20° le matin et du -5/-10° l'après-midi. Un peu plus en allant vers Montréal et/ou si on a une vague de douceur.
Habituellement je ne suis pas fan du froid mais mon conjoint m'a convaincu, nous partons à la mi mars pour un circuit motoneige + chiens de traineau au Quebec…

Hi there, I’m planning a road trip to Quebec in late September/early October.
Since I’m over 75, it’s impossible to rent a camper van. So, the option left is a car plus hotels. I’m used to traveling freely—I sketch out a rough route and stop wherever and whenever I feel like it.
Is it possible during this period to travel without booking hotels/motels or B&Bs in advance, knowing I’ll only need a double room?
Thanks for your replies.
Hi, I’d like to visit Quebec this fall or starting in August (what do you recommend?). I’d love to meet some Quebecers and get some tips on transportation. I’m wondering if it’s doable with an electric mountain bike (not too much rain?). I’m planning to buy one second-hand and return it afterward. If there are any travel buddies out there too...thanks
Hello,
I’m not sure if it’s still possible to travel to Quebec. I haven’t bought my flight ticket for June (from June 11 to July 1) and I’d like to know the current cost of gas. Also, can we book hotels last-minute without risking cancellation due to current events? Thanks
Hi everyone, from August 7th to 10th I’m renting an apartment right across from the WESTMOUNT library, next to the park of the same name. The landlord tells me that parking around the apartment is free. Does that cause any issues? I was planning to rent my car before leaving MONTREAL, but I might visit a friend who lives nearby—I’ll only know for sure at the last minute. Thanks in advance for the replies
Hi everyone,
We’re heading to Québec for 4 days in Montréal and 4 days in Québec City from April 18 to April 22. I’ve been looking but can’t find any excursions—any tips for seeing belugas or other whales?
If it’s really off-season and impossible to find anything,
what else can we do in the area instead?
Thanks in advance!
Hi there,
We’re planning a trip to Quebec from June 15 to 28, 2025, specifically along the St. Lawrence River. As I’ve been looking into it, I’ve got two main questions:
First, about our route—I feel like I might be biting off more than we can chew by wanting to follow the left bank downstream from Quebec City (including the Saguenay Fjord and Lac Saint-Jean), then heading to Gaspésie by ferry, and finally returning along the right bank. We’re flying into Montreal and will likely stop in Quebec City too. Over about ten days, is that too much? Would it be better to stick to the left bank, enjoy the coast and the lake, and maybe explore Mauricie or Mont-Tremblant on the way back instead?
Second, about prices. Since we’re thinking of renting a car and booking accommodations at each stop, I was a bit surprised by hotel and motel rates. I’ve always heard Canada is a pretty expensive destination, but I’m seeing average prices very similar to France—between 60 € and 90 €. Am I missing something? Is service not included? Meanwhile, on platforms like Airbnb, the prices seem exorbitant.
This second question is a bit generic, but as I’m trying to budget, I don’t feel like there’s a huge difference compared to France, even for meals. Am I way off base?
Hello everyone.
We’ve already traveled to Canada in 2018.
This time, we’re prioritizing heading to Quebec City right after arriving in Montreal to stay for 3 days, then moving on to Rivière-du-Loup for 2 to 3 days before heading toward New Brunswick.
We want to see Acadia, Prince Edward Island, the Bay of Fundy, etc., before returning to Quebec City to drop off the rental car.
We were thinking of taking the bus from Montreal Airport to Quebec City and only renting the car 3 days later. Same route on the way back, with one night in Quebec City.
We arrive in Montreal around June 25 (11 AM) and return on July 26 (6 PM).
Could you give us some advice? Routes, sights, accommodations, and chalet rentals.
On our first trip, we went through an agency, but this time we’d prefer to organize everything ourselves.
Thank you so much for your tips and suggestions!
See you soon,
Fabienne
Hi everyone, as a regular in the "bike travel" section, I’m reaching out for some info since I’m planning to come to Montreal at the end of September 2026 for the Road Cycling World Championships. If I get the time off and manage to gather the details, I’ll arrive on Wednesday the 23rd and leave on Tuesday the 29th. Traveling solo with just my backpack, I need answers to:
1°) Do you know of any youth hostels (or similar) within walking distance (less than 3 km) of the finish circuit on Mount Royal?
2°) What’s the best way to get to this accommodation from the airport—metro, bus, etc.?
I’m just starting my research and counting on you all for any tips. My goal is to watch the road races and explore Montreal afterward—restaurants, bars, and more.
Hi everyone! 🙂
My partner would love to discover Quebec, while I’ve already been there over 15 years ago (Quebec City, Tadoussac, the Fjords, Lac Saint-Jean).
This time, of course, we’d want to do something different.
Quebec City would still be a must for my partner in this plan.
With the tight budget we have right now🤪, we’re thinking of spending several days in Quebec City, then maybe renting bikes to explore the surrounding areas—aside from Montmorency Falls, what other nice spots are worth visiting? I remember there being tons of bike paths.
After that, we’d rent a car (for a few days to visit the parks) and use trains or buses for the rest of the trip. From what I recall, cars aren’t super fuel-efficient there.
Since we’ve never seen Niagara Falls, I’d like to include it in this itinerary.
For a roughly 15-day trip in September, I was thinking of a multi-destination flight: France-Quebec / Toronto-France, so it’d look something like this:
Quebec City: 5 days (including arrival day)
Pick up the car
La Mauricie National Park (or others?) 1 day
Mont-Tremblant 1 day
Montreal 4 days
Drop off the car in Montreal
By train/bus
Toronto 2 days
By train/bus
Buffalo-Niagara Falls 1 day
Toronto 1 day (return to France)
I was planning one night at Niagara Falls—is that enough, or is a single day sufficient?
If our finances don’t stretch that far, we’d shorten the trip from Montreal (so long, Niagara🙁), adding extra nights between Quebec City and Montreal.
Anyway, thanks in advance for all your great tips!
Hi, I’d like to plan a trip for 4 adults. 14 days.
From June 4–6 to June 21, 2026
Arriving in Montreal
Then Quebec City... Gaspésie, Lac Saint-Jean
Looking for a loop route starting and ending in Montreal
Where to sleep... where to stay 1 day or more
Thanks for your ideas!
Nature, hiking, a little city time—but not too much.
Jean-Yves. B ARBRISSEL
hi there,
it's been a long time since I've been to Quebec, and I've kinda lost my bearings...🙂
What's the best spot to hitchhike from Montreal to Quebec City and from Quebec City to Tadoussac?
If you've got the public transit route to get to those spots, I'd love to hear it!
Hi there!! We all know there are mosquitoes in Quebec… but is it bearable? Are the cities affected too? Like Montreal and Quebec City? I can imagine it’s bad in the parks… The road trip would be from July 5th to the 21st, right in the middle of bug season!! Best, Christophe
If you’re French, you *have* to make an effort to go see Alexandre Texier play at the Bell Centre. The new player for the Montreal Canadiens, originally from France, is having a lot of success. 🏒
Looking for a comparison? Imagine a Quebecer playing for Paris Saint-Germain. ⚽ You’d be surprised, and we’d be proud. Well, that’s exactly what’s happening. Yesterday, he was the hero of a great win. 🌟
Many of you often wonder what makes Quebecers’ hearts race. Go see a Montreal Canadiens hockey game, and you’ll experience something unforgettable. Especially right now with this young team. Okay, does this fit the travel forum criteria? I think so—especially if you want to learn more about the locals you’re visiting. 😄
Enjoy your trip to Quebec! And if you’re from France, don’t worry about the snow—it always melts eventually. 😄😄👋👋👋
We’re planning our first trip to Quebec for early July 2026. There’ll be 2 adults and 2 teens (17 and 14 years old). For now, we’re thinking of renting an RV in Montreal for this loop.
Here’s a first draft of our route, based on itineraries I’ve seen on the forum.
The times below are the useful time spent at each stop, not including driving.
Does the order make sense? It has us crossing the river twice.
Are the lengths of the stops reasonable? We like to take our time and not spend too much time on the road.
Finally, any other suggestions for places to add or swap out?
Arrival and half a day in Montreal
Pick up RV the next day
Mauricie National Park: 2.5 days
Quebec City: 2 days
Jacques Cartier National Park: 2.5 days
Saguenay Fjord–Tadoussac: 2.5 days, then crossing
Bic Park: 2.5 days, then crossing back
Charlevoix: 3.5 days
Montreal: 2 days, then return to France
Thanks so much in advance for any help you can give us!
Hi, I'd like to know if I rent a car at Quebec City airport, can I drive to New Brunswick without any issues and then return to Quebec?
Thanks in advance for the answer, Claude
Hi everyone,
I’m planning a trip to Quebec at the end of June/beginning of July 2026 for 20 days.
We’re a family of 4, with two kids aged 7 and 4 at that time.
I’ve already started drafting our itinerary but I’m open to all suggestions and ideas.
We plan to land in Montreal and stay a few days to recover from the trip.
Here’s my first draft of the itinerary:
-Day 1 to 4: Exploring Montreal:
-Day 5: Sucrerie de la Montagne in Rigaud.
-Day 6/7: Parc Omega (staying in Pods)
-Day 8-10: Saint-Alexis-des-Monts (staying at Pourvoirie du Lac Blanc)
-Day 9/10: Heading toward Lac Saint-Jean: I’m still looking for accommodation halfway to La Tuque. I’ve noticed Pourvoirie du Triton or Domaine Le Bostonnais.
-Day 10/11: Zoo Sauvage de Saint-Félicien: I’m also looking for accommodation near the lake for this stop + visiting Village historique de Val-Jalbert?
-Day 12-13-14: Stop in Sacré-Cœur at Ferme 5 Étoiles. (I also saw the Canopée Lit accommodations in the area—something to consider).
-Day 15-16: Tadoussac: Whale-watching excursion. Should we do it by Zodiac given my kids’ ages?
I’m also looking for accommodation in the area (Hotel Tadoussac is out of budget).
On the way back from Tadoussac to Quebec City, I’m considering an intermediate stop if there’s a spot worth the detour (Malbaie??).
-Day 17-18-19: Exploring Quebec City (Montmorency Falls / Old Town / Wendake).
-Day 20-21: Return to Montreal and flight home.
I’d love recommendations for activities for young kids along this route.
Thanks
I’m heading back to Montreal in early November after several years away. I’m so excited!
I won’t be staying long, but I’ll have time to wander and explore.
I’d love to get your recommendations for great things to eat—restaurants, bakeries, all kinds of food.
I’m open to all your suggestions and addresses.
I’ll definitely hit up the market. And eat bagels, of course.
I’ll probably stay in the Quartier des Spectacles,
but I’ll definitely be getting around the city.
Hi everyone,
I’m planning to spend at least 3 weeks on the Côte Nord all the way to Natashquan to see the whales. I’m torn between renting a van or finding accommodations.
For the van, it’s hard to find one in Quebec City—most rentals start in Montreal... plus the prices are pretty high.
For accommodations, there aren’t many towns, so there aren’t a lot of options on Booking, for example. Do you have any leads, websites, or addresses to help me find some?
Thanks for any info you can share!
Isabelle
We’re heading out for 3 weeks and just bought our flight tickets;
3 days in Montreal
2 days in La Mauricie Park
drive down Route 155 to Lac Saint-Jean
2 days in Tadoussac
ferry to Gaspésie—planning to stay 6/7 days there
Charlevoix region for 3 days
Quebec City for 2 days
Back to Montreal
If you’ve got any great tips, I’d love to hear them—accommodation, activities (seaplane, bears, whales), parks.
We’re traveling with our kids, aged 20 and 23,
I’ve got a bit of a weird request , but you never know...
I’m currently traveling—we left Tadoussac this morning and are in Rimouski for 2 nights. We’re then heading down the Bas-Saint-Laurent and will be in Montreal on Tuesday. We fly back to Belgium on Friday.
I left 7 sweaters/T-shirts in Tadoussac 😕. Would anyone happen to be going there this weekend and then heading back to Montreal? To pick them up and meet me somewhere?
We’re heading to Quebec in just over a week to meet up with our son, a young adult on a Working Holiday Visa who’s been there for nearly a year 🙂🙂🙂 and I still have a few questions:
1) We’re starting with 3 nights near Shawinigan (Lac à la Tortue). The day after we arrive, we’ll have a relaxed day with one or two activities (sugar shack in St-Mathieu-du-Parc? A seaplane ride?). Any other suggestions? (Besides Parc de la Mauricie, which we’ll visit the next day.)
2) Then, we’ll head to Quebec City via the Chemin du Roy, where we’ll spend 3 nights, followed by a scenic drive to La Malbaie. We’ll be staying in St-Aimé-des-Lacs near Hautes-Gorges de la Malbaie National Park for another 3 nights. One day will be dedicated to hiking in the park—likely the Acropole des Draveurs for our son, and the Riverain trail plus two shorter walks for my husband and me, since he can’t use hiking poles. So, I’m unsure about the second day: should we go back to the park for the cruise, or do something else nearby? Any suggestions?
3) After St-Aimé-des-Lacs, we’ll spend 3 nights in Tadoussac. We’ll definitely stop at Port-au-Persil, but since the drive isn’t too long, we’ll arrive pretty quickly (I think you say "rendu" here 😉). I was thinking of exploring Tadoussac that day, doing the Pointe de l’Islet trail, the Estuary trail, and the Dunes lookout.
The second day, we’d head toward Les Bergeronnes and Les Escoumins to visit the interpretation center and take a Zodiac cruise. I was considering Neptune because they offer covered boats. Any other options?
And on the third day, we’d go to Sainte-Rose-du-Nord via the Saguenay Fjord National Park’s Baie Sainte-Marguerite sector to hike part of the "Le Fjord" trail from the Beluga Observation Center. I’m aware this trail requires a park access fee. However, I just realized that the trails we planned for the first day (Estuary and Pointe de l’Islet) are also part of the Tadoussac sector of the park. Do we need to pay the access fee (10.10 CAD) for these two short trails? If so, it might make sense to do them on the third day. In that case, can we pay the fee in Tadoussac, then head to the Baie Sainte-Marguerite sector and use the same ticket?
Hi there,
My partner and I are planning a trip with our two kids to see whales this summer in Canada. We’ve got two options: Tadoussac or the Bay of Fundy in Saint Andrews. We’ll be there at the end of July.
Could you let me know if one spot is better than the other? Especially in terms of how likely we are to actually see the whales.
Thanks in advance, and have a great day!
Bruno
Hi everyone! We’re nearing the end of our trip and have 3 nights in Quebec City. What are your must-try spots for a good poutine? Our previous attempts haven’t gone well, and where’s the best place to buy souvenirs that actually scream "Quebec"? Also, what are your top picks for sights and walks? We’re thinking Old Quebec, Lévis, and Montmorency Falls. We’ll be there for 3 nights but only have 2 full days. Thanks in advance for your ideas!
Hello,
We (a couple aged 60 and 66) are arriving in Montreal on 09/21 to meet up with our son (on a working holiday). Our original plan was to spend the first 3 nights near Parc de la Mauricie, then 3 nights in Quebec City, and the following 3 near Parc des Hautes-Gorges-de-la-Malbaie. The 2 days we’d planned in each park were supposed to be for hiking (including the Acropole des Draveurs) and canoeing if possible.
The issue is that I’ve recently developed frozen shoulder (capsulitis😕), and I likely won’t have recovered by the time we leave. So, we’re scrapping hikes with significant elevation gain, trekking poles, or any risk of falling.
My question is: which hikes of 10–15 km max on easy terrain with beautiful views would you recommend? (We’ll be there in late September, hoping to catch the fall colors already!). For this type of hike, would it be better to swap Parc de la Mauricie for Réserve faunique des Laurentides, Parc de la Jacques-Cartier, or is Mauricie still okay? And should we replace Parc des Hautes-Gorges-de-la-Malbaie with Parc des Grands-Jardins?
Are there spots easier than others for canoeing (I could get in the canoe with my son, but he’d be the only one paddling—I’m light, and he’s strong, but I don’t want to overdo it 😉). Or maybe pedal boats, if that’s still an option this season?
Thanks for your advice after these unexpected changes of plans.
Claire
If I want to take a seaplane tour... is it necessarily around Mauricie, or do you have other spots to recommend?
If I want to see whales... it's around Grandes-Bergeronnes from land.
If I want to see belugas... it's around Baie-Sainte-Catherine.
If I want to see seals... where is it?
If I want to see moose... it's in Gaspésie.
If I want to see bears... it's around Saint-Jean-des-Piles on the banks of the St. Maurice River.
If I want to visit the Museum of First Peoples' Civilizations... where is it?
If I want to go canoeing... it's around Lac de la Mauricie or Mont-Tremblant.
If I want to see a beautiful waterfall, it's Montmorency Falls.
If I want to eat the best poutine, where is it?
Just to remind you, my round trip is: Montreal – Mauricie – Lac Saint-Jean – Tadoussac – Gaspésie – Charlevoix – Quebec City... but I'm really hesitating between Montreal, Mauricie, Charlevoix, Quebec City, the Saguenay Fjord, Lac Saint-Jean, Tadoussac, the Gaspésie ferry, and back to Montreal.
Thank you for your valuable tips—I’m taking notes! If you have other suggestions, as well as restaurants and accommodations along the way, I’d really appreciate it!
Hello,
We’ll be arriving in Montreal on Sunday, September 21st for a Quebec road trip. Do you have any car rental agencies to recommend (or avoid)? A favorite search engine? Are all agencies open on Sundays? Should we book the car in advance? And finally, is there still a Voyage Forum discount code with Hertz, like there used to be? I know, that’s a lot of questions , thanks for answering them! 🙂
Claire
