Stroll through the heritage-listed Old Town of Quebec City, try a classic snack at BeaverTails and take the historic funicular up the hill for excellent views across the city.
Daytrip to Ile d'Orleans – this scenic island is known as ‘the microcosm of traditional Quebec.’ Have a classic lunch of poutine, then take a hike through the beautiful Parc National de la Jacques-Cartier.
Explore the cities of Toronto, Montreal and Ottawa and get to know Canada’s famous landmarks, culture, history and people by bike, rail and on foot – all with a local leader by your side.
