OVERVIEW

Discover the best Saguenay has to offer as this tour combines the raw beauty of the fjord as can only be seen from the sea and Saguenay National Park. Board your vessel and enjoy a truly unique experience as you discover the natural beauty of the fjord from the sea! With huge cliffs shaped by glaciers rising more than 1,150 feet and then dropping 900 feet deep in the shallow waters, this unforgettable cruise will take you to Cape Trinity, the most impressive cliff in the fjord. Learn about the geological, biological, and morphological development of the fjord as you glide by the impressive landscapes and towering cliffs. Your journey will take you along the shores of Ste. Rose du Nord, the jewel of Saguenay and one of the most beautiful villages in the province of Quebec. This charming little hamlet is nestled on the shores of the Saguenay River and surrounded by beautiful landscapes. Your cruise concludes in the charming village of L’Anse-Saint-Jean, where you’ll enjoy some free time to soak in the atmosphere of this picturesque community. You will then continue your discovery of the fjord by motor coach. If time permits, a stop will be made at the Sainte-Jean-Baptiste Church in the heart of the village (subject to weather conditions and time spent on the water). A photo stop will be made at the iconic covered bridge—featured on the former Canadian $1,000 bill—offering a perfect opportunity to capture a piece of local heritage.
