To travel through rural Quebec really does feel like you are travelling back in time. Quebec city is surrounded by some of the prettiest and most interesting natural and built attractions in Canada.
No trip to the area is complete without seeing the Montmorency Falls, Ile d'Orleans and the Cote de Beaupre. Montmorency Falls (one-and-a-half times higher than Niagara Falls) is the largest of a number of significant waterfalls along the Beaupre Coast. The falls are impressive, in their 272 feet drop from the top of the ridge into a deep bowl-shaped basin at river level.
Ile d'Orleans is a shining jewel in Quebec's crown. The island boasts the oldest golf course and the oldest chapel in Canada. Relax along a leisurely 40 kilometres of scenic splendour and old charm, through picturesque villages brushed with the history of French Canada, on your way to Ste-Anne-de-Beaupre and its world-famous Shrine.
