FLY DRIVE – EASTERN CANADA
Day 1 Arrive Montreal
Depart the UK on your chosen scheduled flight to
Montreal. Upon arrival, collect your rental car and
transfer to your hotel in Old Montreal.
Hotel: Le Place D’Armes Hotel & Suites
Day 2 Montreal
Montreal has two distinct sides which complement
each other beautifully. Old Montreal, with its
quaint cobbled streets, has great character and is
home to many of Montreal’s historical attractions.
Downtown Montreal boasts a myriad of shopping
malls, chic restaurants and lush parks and gardens.
Hotel: Le Place D’Armes Hotel & Suites
Days 3 & 4 Mont-Tremblant
Today, you make the short journey northwest to
Mont-Tremblant. En route, you pass through the
beautiful villages of Saint Sauveur-des-Monts,
Sainte-Adele and Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts,
where you can visit Cabane á Sucre Millette.
Mont-Tremblant is a spectacular destination with
plenty to keep you busy, including horse riding,
rafting and golfing.
Hotel: Fairmont Tremblant
Days 5 & 6 St-Alexis-des-Monts
Bordering the Mastigouche Wildlife Reserve,
Hotel Sacacomie sits in the heart of the forest
overlooking a majestic lake whose shores span
more than 40 kilometres. Blending harmoniously
with its surroundings, there is nowhere more
serene or as close to nature.
Hotel: Hotel Sacacomie
Days 7 & 8 North Hatley & Eastern Townships
A very scenic journey today, as you cross the
majestic St. Lawrence River and travel south
into the Eastern Townships. We suggest a stop
at Trois-Rivieres, one of the first European
settlements dating back to 1634, before arriving in
the small village of North Hatley. Your hotel for
this evening sits on the picturesque shores of
Lake Massawippi.
Hotel: Manoir Hovey
Days 9, 10 & 11 Quebec City
Today it’s back to city life, making the return
journey across the St. Lawrence River to Quebec
City. A visit to the waterfront market and
cruise along the St. Lawrence River are both
highly recommended. Place-Royal, Quarter
Petit-Champlain and the small boutiques and
cafés of Old Quebec are perfect ways to while
away an afternoon, and those interested in
Quebec’s history will enjoy visiting the 17th
century military sites.
Hotel: Hotel 71
Day 12 La Malbaie
Today is all about enjoying the Charlevoix Region,
which has been inspiring artists for centuries.
Choose whether to head out onto the river,
browse the quaint art galleries or spend some
time at Baie-St-Paul, one of the oldest towns in
Quebec. A stop at St-Joseph-de-la-Rive provides
an in-depth look at the region’s maritime history.
Hotel: Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu
