St. Lawrence River Passage
"What river is this?" asked Jacques Cartier of his Indian guide as he looked on the St. Lawrence.
"A river without end," the Indian replied.
And so it seems, as this cruise explores the staggering variety of one of the world's great rivers.
Along its course you'll experience the numerous attractions and extraordinary scenery of the Upper St. Lawrence.
Quebec City, Canada's showpiece, provides the venue for the beginning or end of your cruise.
Here you can experience the world charm and grace of "Old" Europe.
You will encounter Quebec City's unparalleled joie de vivre (love of life) found nowhere else in North America.
Enjoy Old Quebec (the only walled city in North America) with its massive ramparts still bolstering the Plains of Abraham; and behold the imperial green-roofed towers of the legendary Chateau Frontenac.
En route you will discover the magic of the Thousand Islands, the deep historical roots of "Loyalist Brockville" and the unique living community of Upper Canada Village.
Between Montreal and Quebec City there are the "grassy Battures", rich mudflat home to myriad species of birds.
You will pass the "Segnieury" areas, the prominent village cathedrals of Quebec, and witness the awesome cliffs stretching up to the historic Plains of Abraham.
"We enjoyed our cruise with St. Lawrence Cruise Lines and have never encountered a more courteous, helpful and good looking crew! This was our third cruise with our line and we savoured every moment of it."
