Canada by Motorhome
The beauty of Quebec's landscapes!
(Translated by Google) We had a very nice, stress-free trip because everything was well planned. SÉPAQ campgrounds are really to be preferred, nature in all its beauty! Favorite for the Hautes?Gorges-
de-la-Rivière? Malbaie and Fjord-du-Saguenay Park.
Thanks
Travel to Quebec with our own RV
(Translated by Google) Superb experience!
The route we had determined with our advisor Marie-Andrée was perfect.
Second experience with Authentik Canada for us and once again we were not disappointed!????
The beauty of the trip by doing business with Authentik Canada is that everything is organized and we only had to show up at the different campsites and present our voucher.
Lots of wonderful memories!
Thanks!

Exceptional, from start of planning to return
(Translated by Google) My experience with Authentik blew me away! The site is great for planning vacations: it's easy to take inspiration from existing packages and customize it to your liking. The reservation of the RV, accommodation and activities is done all at the same place; it is easy to see at a glance the holiday schedule and the price.
Throughout the stay, we were well accompanied by the Roadbook. Every accommodation and activity was well planned and it was easy to get to the sites.
We had a few questions for our advisor while planning and traveling and were bowled over by the prompt and courteous service. What a fabulous experience!

Our first RV trip
(Translated by Google) We wanted to take a trip in RV and this year was the perfect opportunity to put our plan into action.
I did my research and when I contacted Authentik they were able to answer my questions and also give me sound advice for renting an RV. In addition they advised me on the activities to do.
Everything went well and all reservations were respected, no problem.
My advisor, Véronique, has always been attentive to our needs and the return calls have been quick.

Trip to Quebec
(Translated by Google) We had impeccable service with Authentik. As soon as we had a problem, we contact you and you were there to solve everything. Thank you for your involvement and your speed of service.
Our trip was very pleasant! We loved the Mauricie Park and the sepaq Jacques-Cartier. As for the other campsites, we found that it lacked nature. Camping Val-Jalber was good but very noisy, we were near the road and we could hear a lot of traffic even at night. Subsequently my father's Jardin campsite, very disappointing in terms of facilities. Very sticky land, little space and nature, dismal laundry facility, only 1 washer and 1 functional dryer. We had to line up and wait. Installation of basic common toilets and showers.
Good desire camping, camping with a magnificent view apart from where we were. Still too close to the road.
Camping de la joie, beautiful campsite, quiet near the city.
We enjoyed all of our activities! Overall everything was perfect! I name the inconveniences because I think these can be improved with the choice of land and campsite!
Thank you again for your service Marie-Michele! :)

Great trip!
(Translated by Google) The RV was in perfect condition and with a huge luggage compartment. It was a great trip where we visited seven beautiful regions of Quebec.
Great road trip on the roads of Quebec
(Translated by Google) We loved our 2 weeks in RV. We discovered beautiful places. Ideal for enjoying the outdoors in the comfort of a house on wheels!
Magnificent discovery of Quebec with the family in the summer!
(Translated by Google) Except for the disappointment of our whale safari canceled without warning by the service provider the same day, and this without any valid reason, the itinerary chosen was perfect, varying different atmospheres and landscapes.
Too bad not to plan the coast of Charlevoix which is however worth the detour.
Canadream at the top with super comfortable and functional luxury RVs.
Thank you Authentik Canada for this total disconnection in such a beautiful environment.
We hope to do another trip soon!!!

A beautiful nature trip with children
(Translated by Google) Very nice trip with many nights in the parks allowing a great immersion in nature. With two young children, you really have to plan for the margin because the pace is slow, but that's what we did on the advice of Authentik. We were able to enjoy outdoor activities such as beach, kayak, pedal boat, canoe, mini hike, bike...
Three small regrets:
- After picking up the motorhome on Friday afternoon, we had our first night at Mont Tremblant. It was actually a bit too far and therefore a stressful first night arrival. Indeed there are a lot of traffic jams on Fridays, and picking up the motorhome plus shopping takes a long time. A first night at Okka would have allowed a more serene start.
- La Fabuleuse show: a very nice show but we hadn't realized that it was in a theater (we were thinking of an outdoor show). So it was not really suitable for young children, and we paid for a seat for our 9 month old baby for nothing (because of course he stayed on my lap)
- Visit of Quebec: a very large group (more than 20 people) which pushed the guide to zap some aspects of the visit (not to enter the churches so many), slower group so need to catch up...
[...]
It's overall a very nice trip, Canada and the region of Quebec is an excellent destination.
(Translated by Google) We have done
Very satisfied despite some approximations
(Translated by Google) Overall, very good stay with Authentik Canada. Well-chosen campsites, suitable activities and a useful road book. A few approximations though:
- the mileage of our journey was incorrectly assessed which led to the billing of additional km on the return of the motorhome.
-the name of our first hotel changed between our reservation and the day of departure, which complicated our arrival in Montreal
-some activities did not have to be confirmed in advance as specified in the road book. Unnecessary telephone charges.
With these things in mind, we will not hesitate to use Authentik Canada again.

A magical week
(Translated by Google) A great journey (Lac Saint Jean / Fjord / Tadussac). Beautiful places and an Authentik organization at the top. The roadbook is great, the indications nickels, the reservations (voucher) super simple and well managed (for the size of our motorhome for example).
The minor drawbacks: the travel times indicated in the roadbook are a little underestimated when you are in a motorhome! and it might be necessary to think of calling all the activities subject to climatic hazards before going there... (so as not to travel additional and useless km if the activity is cancelled).
But otherwise: the week was perfect and makes you want to redo trips in the same genre! ( Gaspésie maybe? )

Discovering a warm Quebec
(Translated by Google) 15 days, it was just enough time to fill our eyes, our heads, our senses with an exceptional experience. Everything rolled: the extraordinary motorhome 9 m by 4 high for 5, electrical extensions that enlarged our space, highways and roads a little under construction but not too much, access to parks and camping areas always nice and nature, multiple visits and discoveries: the mauricie with its forests and lakes, lake St Jean with the village of val Jalbert with its waterfall and the zoo of St felicien and its bears, the Saguenay and its forjd; the St Laurent and its 4 humpback whales which came to flirt with our zodiac, the lumberjack meal at the sugar shack (which allowed us not to eat for a while); Jacques Cartier Park and its unforgettable storyteller and the rabasca ride; Quebec and Montreal with their history and their grandeur.... nothing was missed and although returning to France we still feel imbued with our beautiful trip.
But above all, we regret the exceptional warmth of the welcome and benevolence from Quebec. We, lost looking for a restaurant and as soon as a good soul to guide us, a mistake on the road and everyone lets us pass, a question about the cheese that makes chouïk chouik and a conversation begins, and everyone tells us their story: from the 13th generation who arrives from France and welcomes us to his cape sugar shack, Mohamed our huber from the start and his first winter to cry in Montreal, from the driver of canadream (camping car) giving us a thousand tips and experiences of camping, of this Quebec family visiting our camper van and giving us the names of the members of their family. And especially from this good soul who transported us from the campsite to Quebec despite the fact that we had missed the shuttle and allowed us to offer a superb birthday in Quebec to our daughter.
everything was unforgettable like the marshmallows melting around a wood fire.

Fantastic trip
(Translated by Google) We loved our motorhome trip. Unforgettable trip!
Tailor-made holidays
(Translated by Google) We are very satisfied with our vacations in Quebec and we owe this greatly to the services of Authentik Canada.
The organization was done at the beginning of the year by email exchanges and live texts. In less than a week the project was completed!
We did a loop in VR (motorhome for the French ;O)) for 12 days. Everything was up to our expectations, only one downside the Tadoussac / sugar shack trip, honestly it was not a good plan: Sugar shack activity at 12 p.m., planned trip of 3:30 hours for which, despite the added margin we took 5 hours! so arrived 30min late and driver exhausted by the tension at the Sugar Shack. The driver (me) got over it.
We were 2 adults and our 8 year old grandson.
The recreational vehicle really suited our needs. Although impressive when picked up, it turned out to be very easy to drive, use and offer comfort worthy of a French 3-star hotel. Attention dear French compatriots for travel times in general change your reference, here we do not calculate your travel time as with us: the mileage is an indication but for the real time it is necessary to take into account i) speed limits which do not are not the same as here and which are respected ;o)), ii) works on the roads which will really slow you down so I advise you to add 15% to the time that the GPS will indicate to you.
The camps in general and in the parks in particular offer large pitches and good services in very pleasant places. A word of advice, put yourself in Canadian fashion and make campfires and roast marshmallows!
The highlights were:
The kindness, availability and competence of Canadians everywhere we went. We met, in the camps among other things, adorable people, a pity not to have been able to deepen our discussions due to time constraints.
Saint Felicien zoo. We spent a full day there without being bored for a second. The animals, although captive, seem well treated, the explanations given by the naturalists are of a very good standard and they are available for the children's questions.
The village of Val-Jalbert. I was dubious before the visit, fearing the tourist trap. It is not so, it is a moment and a way of life of Quebecers in 1920 to discover.
Whales in Tadoussac. Breathtaking!! What to say about this unforgettable experience? A humpback whale gave us a phenomenal show for about twenty minutes, jumps, flapping pectoral fins, caudal fin release, etc... We saw about fifteen humpback whales and a few fin whales. The captains of the zodiacs know their job well and optimize the time at the observation site by following the animals at a reasonable distance. To do absolutely.
Guided tour of Quebec. An old town to discover and a part of the history of France to discover too ;0)) Not really glorious for us.
To conclude, we have a strong desire to return to Canada as soon as possible, probably further west or, why not, a West / East RV trip.
If you have a vacation project in Canada, entrust it to Authentik.

Superb experience!
(Translated by Google) The motorhome lends itself very well to visiting Quebec and its natural parks. It is a relatively comfortable way to travel with the family. The only regret is the lack of flexibility to stop on the way for example to buy fruit or bread, given the size of the motorhome.
Very nice trip!
(Translated by Google) Great to do with the family, despite a pace a little too fast.
Great family trip
(Translated by Google) We were delighted with the services of Authentik Canada! Travel and itinerary very well advised! Only downside, the gps did not work ... sometimes not very easy to locate ...
The quintessence of the ideal life
(Translated by Google) The development of a course, the choice of options, the reserved spaces, the vehicle were as prepared and everything was respected in a perfect way!
The only downside concerns the moose: on all the roads it is mentioned to pay attention to it because it is an unpredictable animal. We found that he is like Mrs. Colombo (in the same TV series): We talk about it a lot but we never see it....!????

Travel with peace of mind
(Translated by Google) We had a great time in Canada
The itinerary was perfect and varied
Lack of details
(Translated by Google) We had some difficulties due to a lack of details on our RV trip. In particular where to park the RV on the outskirts of large cities. We looked for a place to park for 2 hours on arrival in Quebec.
We spent more than 3 days in Montreal because we had to return the RV on Friday! What a pity. We felt like we were suffocating and wasting time that we could have spent in the parks.
At my father's garden campsite, we were on top of each other. Warn the French who come to look for the great outdoors!!

Soulignac Travel
(Translated by Google) It's very good thank you very much!
Well-established agency
A wonderful stay!
(Translated by Google) Magnificent places to see among fir trees, lakes and rivers. For those who love nature, it's really magical without counting on the 2 very beautiful cities visited: Montreal (large and very rich in culture and entertainment), and Quebec (smaller but just as interesting and above all very beautiful) . I recommend this 2-week stay even if we would have liked to stay to discover a little more... but it is the right duration for this course (do not try to do more because otherwise we would spend too little time on site ). [...]
Very nice course
(Translated by Google) We completed a 20-day journey visiting as many national parks as possible
We were two families of 4 and 5 people
We just regret the Minimalist eqioement of the motorhome
No grill, no ounce to turn the meat on the grill, no lamp to illuminate the table, no product for the toilet, no carpet in front of the entrance to the motorhome (we take it all the way inside)
We also had a problem with
The fridge that could not be repaired in the last 6 days, so no fridge.
It would be necessary to provide a kit with everything the camper needs for these evenings or the start of the journey, we would have been ready to pay for it.
Carpet in front of the motorhome entrance, grill, candles or lamps for the table, mosquito repellent in the form of a coil, GPS
For the road, fitted sheets adapt to the fixed and convertible beds, the standard sheets go away from the first installation and during the night.
It's still a great experience.
Thanks to Emily
PS: the duration of the trips on the roadbook is not
Not reliable, it is necessary to add between 25 to 50% of additional time.

Easy and
(Translated by Google) Circuit and program of activities well organized, easy and good quality of services, apart from the motorhome supplier who was not great (old vehicle, technical problems solved but with difficulties). an unforgettable trip that was very well organized thanks to Authentik Canada.
An Extra Experience
(Translated by Google) The organization of Authentik coupled with the professionalism of CanaDream allowed us to discover unknown corners, in a comfortable vehicle. I would still recommend storing the heaviest dishes at the bottom of the cupboards!
The alternation between campgrounds in national parks and private sites (ValJalbert, Bon Plaisir, Valcartier) was very interesting. Our preference in the end goes to Camping de la Joie, at the gates of Quebec, a wooded environment where the proximity of the land is counterbalanced by the arrangement in landings and the residents who have fixed their caravans for several years.
Quebec is very welcoming, like its inhabitants. Thanks !

Very rewarding road trip
(Translated by Google) A 2-week road trip through Quebec that went well. The motorhome was a discovery but everything went well. The campsites were spacious and pleasant. The 2 activities chosen, St Felicien zoo and whale watching were very nice. Véronique gave us good advice and organized our trip very well, we had no bad surprises.
Very nice discovery of Quebec!!
(Translated by Google) Our tailor-made trip with Authentic Canada allowed us to discover Quebec with the family and in a motorhome, a very nice two-week circuit through the parks and the most beautiful roads in the country. All this with a great roadbook that includes all the necessary information and vouchers for stays in very good campsites. Thanks to Joannie, our advisor for her kindness and all her advice since the reservation. [...]
Excellent service
(Translated by Google) This is the first time we have booked an "organized" trip and we were happy to go through Authentik. They started from one of their itineraries to customize it at our request since we were traveling with 2 young children. We benefited from their expertise on the booking of the camper because it is the first time that we have undertaken a trip like this, and also from the choice of campsites. Excellent responsiveness from their teams to build and modify the trip. Everything went well. [...]
