Full description

Take full advantage of summer aboard a relaxing 1 or 1.5-hour river cruise departing from the Jacques-Cartier Pier in the heart of Old Montreal. This is the perfect introduction to Montreal if you are visiting the city for the first time. Be charmed by the boat's bright and comfortable environment no matter where you sit. Get close to the waves and nature on the enclosed main deck or enjoy the sheltered, open-air upper deck. If you want to feel the wind in your hair as you admire the panoramic views then the back terrace is the place to be. The flat-bottomed boat allows for smooth sailing, cruising areas inaccessible to other boats. Get closer to the splendor of the St. Lawrence River and its coastline. Catch sight of the Clock Tower, Biosphère, Jacques Cartier Bridge, and Habitat 67. The pre-recorded audio narration will explain what you're seeing, and you can enjoy bar and snack services (at your own expense). After your cruise, you'll be dropped off at the Pier with the rest of the day to enjoy even more of Montreal.

We sat outside on the back of the boat and enjoyed seeing the sights. We didn't realize there was a recorded audio tour guide playing on the various speakers. Even when we got close to the speakers inside, we couldn't hear what they were saying. I recommend they make sure all the speakers are working and the volume is turned up. Even so, we really enjoyed the trip and it was great to see Montreal from the water. We bought some mango sorbet onboard and it was great. Staff was very nice.

Quel plaisir de découvrir une ville sur un bateau. La croisière était magnifique sur ce fleuve magique qui peut se transformer en glace l'hiver ! Le tour est très complet, nous découvrons plusieurs aspects de la ville. Seul regret : les sièges à l'arrière du bateau ne sont pas mis en rang et l'on est obligé de rester debout voir gêner ceux qui sont assis pour admirer la vue. A l'intérieur, on doit consommer ! Et malheureusement pas de commentaires durant cette croisière.

Les gens change de place souvent à l'arrière du bateau et parfois c'est désagréable il nous bloque la vue surtout pour les gens assis. L'enregistrement sonore pour la sécurité et ou l'histoire est souvent incompressible à l'arrière, les gens parlaient.
