Itinerary

01

Day 1: Toronto → Kingston → Ottawa → Montreal

Assembled at designed point

Departing Toronto in early morning for Thousand Island (*Seasonal Apr to Oct). Upon arrival, enjoy a relaxing boat ride cruising along the St. Lawrence River. You will have a chance to view the world famous Boldt Castle, Zavicon Island and Millionaire's row. Continue your journey to Montreal. You will first have a chance to visit the Montreal Tower where the 1976 Summer Olympic Games were hosted. You will then visit Botanical Garden, is recognized as one of the world's greatest botanical gardens. With its collection of 22,000 plant species and cultivars, 10 exhibition greenhouses, Frédéric Back Tree Pavilion, and more than 20 thematic gardens spread out over 75 hectares, it's also a perfect place to enjoy fresh air and natural beauty.

Day 2: Montreal - Quebec City

Assembled at designed point

# Summer Itinerary: Montreal - Saint Joseph's Oratory - Montreal Biodome - Montreal Botanical Garden - Old Quebec City

After breakfast, we will visit Saint Joseph's Oratory of Mount Royal, the largest Catholic church in North America, where you can overlook the entire city of Montreal from its upper floors. Next, head to the Montreal Biodome, reconstructed and opened on the venue of the 1976 Olympic Games. It recreates five major American ecosystems, divided into five natural zones: tropical rainforest, polar region, Canadian deciduous forest, St. Lawrence River, and Labrador Coast.

We will then tour the Montreal Botanical Garden, widely recognized as one of the world's largest and most significant botanical gardens. The garden houses 22,000 plant species and varieties, a tree pavilion, and more than 20 themed gardens across a 75-hectare site, making it an ideal spot to breathe fresh air and admire natural scenery. You will also have an exterior view of the Montreal Tower built for the 1976 Olympic Games. Standing approximately 165 meters tall with a staggering 45-degree tilt (the Leaning Tower of Pisa only leans 5 degrees), it ranks as the world's tallest leaning tower and the structure with the steepest incline globally.

Later, we proceed to a sugar shack. Quebec is Canada's primary producer of distinctive maple syrup. A sugar shack is the place where maple sap is collected and maple food is prepared during the sugaring-off season. You will sample authentic local farm dishes made with maple syrup and experience Canada's version of agritourism. If the sugar shack is closed for the season, lunch will be arranged at an alternative venue instead.

After lunch, travel to Quebec City, Canada's oldest city. Old Quebec City brims with strong European charm and countless historical landmarks: the only intact ancient city wall remaining in North America, the stately Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, elegant old churches, vintage horse-drawn carriages beloved by tourists, and street artists-all of which will tempt you to stop and take photos to capture precious memories.

Dinner featuring French-style specialties will be served at a French restaurant, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in European romantic vibes. In case of special circumstances, dinner may be changed to the city's largest seafood buffet restaurant. Return to your hotel for rest after dinner.

# Autumn Itinerary: Montreal - Mont Tremblant - Old Quebec City

* Tours departing between September 26 and October 17 fall within the maple leaf season; Montreal stops will be replaced with maple leaf viewing at Mont Tremblant.

(Sugar shack and maple-themed meals cannot be arranged due to route adjustments.)

After breakfast, depart for Mont Tremblant Resort, hailed as the "Banff of the East" and a world-famous maple leaf viewing destination. Nestled against mountains and overlooking a lake, Mont Tremblant Village features vibrant buildings of diverse European styles, resembling an idyllic hidden paradise. Take a cable car to the summit of Eastern Canada's highest peak. Gaze out at the maples swaying along Lac Tremblant, forming an incomparably beautiful landscape.

Drive to Old Quebec City in the afternoon. Key sights include North America's only fully preserved ancient city wall, the luxurious Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, graceful old churches, the grand Quebec Parliament Building, popular vintage horse-drawn carriages, and street artists-all perfect for photographs. The St. Lawrence River, European-style old town, and vividly hued maple leaves combine to create a breathtaking panorama.

You may opt to enjoy a French-style specialty dinner at your own expense to soak up the full romance of European aesthetics. Overnight at a hotel in Quebec City.

## Warm Reminder

Per notice from the Quebec City government, Saint-Louis Street has been closed to all unauthorized buses due to ongoing road construction. Our tour buses cannot enter Old Quebec City for parking along the original route.

As a result, visitors will need to walk roughly 10 minutes from the drop-off point to reach the core area of the old town. Old Quebec City is designed primarily for pedestrian exploration; this adjustment only affects bus drop-off locations and will not impact your overall sightseeing experience within the historic district. We appreciate your understanding.
