After a leisurely breakfast and late morning check-out, we’ll enjoy lunch at the iconic Château Frontenac before boarding the coach for the Beaupré coast. We’ll make a brief stop at the Basilique de Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, then arrive at the Château Mont Sainte-Anne (http://chateaumontsainteanne.com/en) We’ll check in, relax, perhaps take an aperitif in the bar. We will re-convene in the early evening, and head to our zany cooking competition- our version of Master Chef! (on site) with Chef David Ruel of Les Trois Becs.
Today after breakfast, we’ll head to Île d’Orléans for a bit of shopping, a Québécois lunch, beer and cider tastings, and dégustations of local food products. We will be accompanied by an outstanding guide from Voir Québec who will share the history and culture of this island, the “microcosm of traditional Quebec”. On the way back to the hotel, we’ll stop at the Chutes Montmorency – those who wish to take the téléphérique up and back can do so! When we return to the hotel, you will have the opportunity to dine at the hotel restaurant or the bus will be available to take you to a craft brew pub down in Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré.
After an early breakfast, we’ll board the bus for our long journey home. Several stops will make the ride a bit easier!
