This is a one-time event, so you don’t really want to miss out on it!

 

 

The rabaska activity is NOT suitable for children under 6 years of age.

Since this is going to be the only occasion that we are going to visit this park in the summer, we are also opening 10 spots for those interested in simply catching a ride with us, or if for example in your family you have a child under 6 years old (and cannot participate in the rabaska activity). There is a limited capacity for the rabaska and hike guided tours.

We will stop at km 10, at the Discovery Centre to pick up the guides and for a quick bathroom break. Then, we will continue driving until we reach km 18, where the rabaska activity will take place.
  • A guided rabaska (type of boat) descent on the Jacques-Cartier river, lasting from 1h to 1h15.
  • A guided hike (l’Aperçu), with a duration of 1 hour.
  • Entrance fees to the park.
  • Life jackets DURING the rabaska activity. If you choose to practice another nautical activity, it is your responsibility to rent one yourself.

NOT INCLUDED

  • Meals and/or snacks. Each participant must plan and bring their own lunches (sandwiches, salads, etc.) as well as their snacks and water.
  • Any other activity at the park (equipment rental, other nautical activities, etc.).

Are you new to Quebec City and looking for something fun to do? The Voice of English-speaking Quebec invites you for a fun-filled evening at the Newcomers Free Sunset Ferry Ride on Wednesday, August 23 from 5:40 to 8:30 PM.

We will ride the ferry to Quai Paquet in Lévis that leaves at 5:40 PM.

We will be returning on the 8:00 PM ferry (to Quebec).  We will bring board games to facilitate your interaction with others. At the quai, there are 160 water jets, perfect to refresh you, so make sure you bring or wear your sandals or why not your swimsuit! If you are an avid photographer, you can also check out the Red stairs (193 steps) located two blocks away from the quai, and admire the beauty of the view from atop. There is also a café near the quai, not far from the ice cream shop. Feeling like picknicking? By all means, bring your own snacks and a picnic blanket or portable chairs!

The fees for the ferry ride are covered for participants and the event is open to all English-speaking newcomers living in the Greater Quebec City region. Registration is required and we have a limited number of places.  Note: A newcomer is someone who moved to the Greater Québec City region in the past 5 years.

 

The Ferris Wheel ride and any other purchases (like meals) are not covered.
