Day Excursion to Quebec City
Wednesday - September 24, 2008

Québec City, the only Canadian city declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, celebrates the 400th anniversary of its founding, which also marks the founding of Canada. Few cities in North America can boast such a rich past and promising future. People from all over Canada and around the world will gather to celebrate 400 years of history, 400 years of culture, and 400 years of encounters. They will be welcomed as distinguished guests, with all the warmth and hospitality that Québec City's residents are famous for.  The celebration of Québec City's 400th anniversary is an opportunity to enjoy its diverse and rich heritage.  Come celebrate with us!

Buses will be leaving the hotel in the morning and drop you in the heart of Quebec city.  Once there, you will be free to explore the many sites and festivities planned for this memorable event.  The bus will then return to Montreal after dinner.

If you need more information on any of the celebrations planned for the 400th anniversary, on the city itself or on suggestion for a good dinner please use the following links:
