For Your Information

The Quebec Winter Carnival takes place at various locations in Old Quebec. Locations are within walking distance but keep in mind, Old Quebec hills are steep and proper footwear is a must. In addition, most every Carnival event is outdoors, so be sure to pack and dress appropriately.

After dinner we will meet our local guide who will take us to the nighttime parade, our first Winter Carnival event.

See Bonhomme's ice palace (the official icon of the event), watch the competitive sport of ice canoe racing, explore the outdoor snow & ice museum, and partake in a host of shows & activities. Lunch and dinner will be on own at the carnival.

Please note

Our intention is to run each tour as originally planned and published. However, if deemed necessary to do so, Perkiomen Tours reserves the right to make changes to tour components, schedules or itineraries without prior notification.

Tips for Perkiomen motorcoach drivers and tour escorts are not included in the price of this tour. We feel that these gratuities should be extended on an individual basis and dictated by the level of service provided.

Motorcoach seating is assigned at the time of reservation but cannot be guaranteed. Although we do our best to keep each traveler in the seat assigned at the time of reservation, there are times that it is necessary to move seat locations. Please be sure to verify your final seat number(s) with your driver at the time of boarding. Historically, daily seat rotation was practiced
on most multi-day tours. We have suspended this practice for a period of time. Seat rotation will be explained by your driver or tour escort if reinstated.
