Travel notes
Pack your winter woolies for this journey as this is truly Canada in Snow time. A proper winter coat and boots are a must.
This tour is a blend of busy cities and peaceful, scenic countryside, just as beautiful in the winter as in the summer.
A relaxed pace with plenty of opportunity, at the resort-style Fairmont properties in Point au-Pic and Montebello, to be as adventurous as you wish. Plenty of activities from a relaxed sleigh ride to the more active dog sledding or snow shoeing are available (a charge is payable locally for these activities). On Day 3, please note, departures in January and February will see the final construction of the Ice Hotel. November and December departures will see the hotel under construction).
Choose your departure carefully if you wish to visit Canada during one of the festivals noted below. Sadly, we cannot guarantee snow, but we have never been disappointed by the scenery yet.
