Heart of Quebec
(Translated by Google) The flexibility left by the organization and the judicious choice of accommodation which allowed us to really be in contact with the inhabitants.
Special mention to; Johanne Raymond of the temperance gîte. A very great kindness and a very fine cordon bleu. We loved it.
(Translated by Google) Most :
The discovery program.
The inn of St Mathieu du Lac.
The evening at the inhabitant at; Hébertville.
Tadoussac, an exceptional place.
Québec, we liked this city a lot.
Cons: 2 hour wait to pick up our vehicle at Discount à; Montreal, loss of half a day, it's a shame vacation days are sacred... Note a particularly unsuitable service; at the rental agency. We had however gone there the day before as advised.
Accommodation was overall very good. except for the house of Vébron which really lacks soul. In addition, the breakfasts were not very good (bread still frozen and "1st price products without flavor). It's a shame because this hostel is not at all up to par with the extraordinary place I think you could significantly improve things by accommodating your vacationers directly in Anse St Jean or in Petit Saguenay (the sunset there is magical!).
The activities are very good, in particular the guide of the domain of Pic bois à; opportunity for bear viewing. I would very much like you to send him a message on our behalf because his passion has fascinated us. In addition, we had a very intense moment during the whale watching cruise.

(Translated by Google) The organization and great availability from Authentik Canada.
At the Suites de l'Anse & àgrave; Tadoussac the accommodation was very average. Authentik had well reserved; 2 quadruple rooms and a single, but we only have a quadruple room, a double with mattresses on the floor and the single room, because the hotel was full. The double room was very uncomfortable.
In the travel diary: the routes are not always given to you; from the place of departure.

(Translated by Google) Excellent diversity places visited thanks to the stages proposed in the autotour. The most beautiful stages were Mauricie, Saguenay and Tadoussac. For the night at the inhabitant's; HebertVille, we expected more from; a "host family" that has a cottage, even if the stay has been very pleasant and charming hosts.
For the first two days at; Montreal, renting a car is not essential if you want to visit the city without paying parking fees. Very well done and very useful travel diary
If it was to Doing it again, we might spend one less day at Mont Tremblant and one more day in Charlevoix.
[...]
(Translated by Google) That you have met all our expectations, with professionalism and have made our stay simple. pleasant.
Good and comfortable car.
All accommodations have been of a high standard. and cleanliness. irreproachable.
Too many things to see to discover to do. Canada too good and beautiful.
The travel diary, a very very very practical little booklet to discover and inform us about the places where we were staying.
Great, nothing to worry about. say about the organization thank you very much
[...]
(Translated by Google) What we liked the most : The essential roadbook, the good organized, the information provided for each stage (sometimes erroneous without more) the possibility to join you even on Sunday evening at; 20 hours ! The services provided to; with the exception of the cane. sugar.
An up-to-date GPS, Quebec is ten times larger than France and you get lost quickly, so having a compass in the vehicle would also be a plus.
Auberge le Lupine must provide that 4 identical rooms must be, Auberge du Lac a little outdated but a courtesy and a service that will be remembered, the boss traveled 10 kilometers to bring us the sandwiches and drinks that we had ordered; and forgot the day of departure.
Chateau Laurier charge for wifi in rooms, unacceptable. La nuit des Caribou exceptional and special mention to; Gabriel Bourgault absolutely exceptional kindness of knowledge and culture on the fauna of Quebec. He touched us all very much. and he is invited with us when he comes to France.
Very good travel diary, however review the sometimes contradictory GPS route annotations. The description corresponds well to the activities and to the accommodation offered.
Good organization overall, nothing to worry about. tell Marie Michèle to; listens and gives the answers we expected.
For a Frenchman, the addition is sometimes difficult to calculate. swallow because 15% tax plus 15% tip for us where everything is included...
The reception at; Quebec is less welcoming than in Quebec. Montreal for example, but we understand that Quebec lives on tourism and we have the same problems in France.
[...]
(Translated by Google) There was a good mix in quality. accommodation: in town (Montréal and Quebec) very beautiful 4-star hotels. And in the country, very welcoming hostels, with a very beautiful environment (St Mathieu du lac and Les Eboulements) with generally good cuisine, and excellent quality. exceptional hospitality; really Quebec as we imagined.
I believe that we have not been warned that the Auberge La Bouclée at Les Eboulements only had shared bathrooms. However this did not bother us. Thanks to; Ginette, our host at; the Auberge la Bouclée for its taste for cooking, and its way of presenting and explaining breakfasts to us.
[...]
(Translated by Google) The contact with the locals is fantastic! Flat for the room at the edge of the road at; heavy traffic at; Traveler's Inn
(Translated by Google) Availability and responsiveness of our customer advisor during the preparation and the course of the stay. Varied and "authentic" places of accommodation,
The reception of the Auberge de la Chatelaine at agrave; La Malbaie was a long way off. the height of the reserved one in our other places of accommodation...nothing incorrect, just a "nondescript", "minimalist" welcome, far from the warmth of the Quebec welcome! I put it down to the European origin of the owners !!
On the other hand, a special thank you to; Pauline from the Auberge de la Rivière Saguenay in The Bay. Best welcome of our stay, simple, endearing and a real desire to share his passion for his "authentic" cuisine...tourtiere and chômeur pudding in particular!
[...]
(Translated by Google) The choice of route, the landscapes were grandiose. We liked beaver and bear activities, as well as visits to the Huron villages.
Accommodation is very good overall.
Thanks to; Denis du Pic Bois for the love of his profession as well as a very good knowledge of beavers and bears.
(Translated by Google) What we liked the most : Relationship with our advisor, organization in general
Vehicle rental => uncompetitive rates so booking via another website
Accommodation: Pourvoirie le tritton => cleaning of the rooms is up to you. desire
Gîte le presbytère du mont lac vert => expensive and not necessarily exceptional meal
Special mention for Le Roupillon (Tadoussac). Warm owners, good breakfast, great amenities (internet, billiards....), nice cottage
As a rule, many accommodations offer showers, not obvious when traveling with a 15 month old
Activities: Catamaran whale safari => end of season, not specified;
Cruise 2001 => boat not adapted, better echoes via the company AML

(Translated by Google) Very well organized trip, super well-chosen accommodation with a very warm welcome, meeting with D. Ranking, Indian chief, fascinating, meeting with a Quebec family who left us with a family. a lasting memory through interesting exchanges on local life. We have been very satisfied with authentik canada, I recommend this travel organizer...
(Translated by Google) We have kept an excellent memory of our entire stay. Thanks to; Emilie Bienvenu who had organized everything very well. We renew our thanks and we will recommend your agency. We took advantage of this. advice given to organize our visits and walks. The welcome from Quebecers is always very warm.
(Translated by Google) This trip to through the natural parks of Quebec, at the time of the summer; Indian, will remain among my most fabulous memories!
In addition to the very friendly encounters with Quebecers, each more welcoming than the other to each stage, a short stay in an isolated chalet; in the heart of Jacques Cartier Park allows you to rest a little in the wild calm of nature.
The flight over "La Croche" in a small seaplane, the search for whales at; Tadoussac, the visit of the micro-brewery of Shawinigan in full "Oktober Fest" and the dairy of Charlevoix, the excursions to Val Jalbert, around Lac St-Jean and in the Ste-Anne canyon, the encounter with the animôs of the 5-star farm, only good memories and magnificent photos! Without forgetting the dinner at the treehouse "L'Érablière du Cap" and the last evening at Quebec!
What are we waiting for to go back?

(Translated by Google) We performed this route with Authentic Canada except Charlevoix because we were missing a day. it is a perfect route for a first approach to this beautiful country.
We appreciated accommodation, in particular the guesthouse and the Auberge des Cévennes.
We had booked; a kayak performance and we really liked it.
