Travel Itinerary

The Ontario and French Canada 3-Day Deluxe Tour is an Eastern Canada bus tour departing Toronto, and one of the most established routes in the region. Over three days and two nights, this 3-day Eastern Canada tour travels from Toronto through Kingston, the Thousand Islands, Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec City, with one night in Montreal and one night in Quebec City. Group transport is by luxury coach throughout, accompanied by an experienced Chinese-speaking tour leader. As a fully escorted Canada guided tour, the route removes the need to arra

    The first day of this Eastern Canada tour from Toronto begins early. We travel along the Macdonald-Cartier Freeway eastbound to the majestic Kingston. This is the former capital of our nation, when Canada consisted only of the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. The city tour includes the Sir John A. Macdonald House, City Hall and Queen's University.

    Next, we continue to the Thousand Islands in St. Lawrence River National Park. There, we board the one-hour scenic cruise (optional). During the boat tour, you will be amazed by the world's shortest international bridge, the summer cottages of the rich and famous, and many other picturesque islands.

    Later, we arrive at the nation's capital, Ottawa, which was appointed by Queen Victoria. What makes the capital unique is that it consists of two cities across the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. The city tour of Ottawa includes Parliament Hill, the Peace Tower, the Centennial Flame, the National War Memorial, the National Art Gallery and the Royal Canadian Mint. Impressive sights of the Rideau Canal, Rideau Hall (the Governor General's residence), the Prime Minister's residence and the residences of foreign ambassadors also unfold along the way.

    We then visit one of the capital's landmarks, the Museum of Canadian History (optional) in Hull, Quebec. The museum showcases an extensive range of exhibits and displays, including those of different Native Canadian tribes from the east to the west coast.

    In the evening, we arrive in the second-largest city in Canada, Montreal, where we stay overnight.

    Montreal is the world's second-largest French-speaking city, and the morning is given to exploring its oldest district. Known as the "Little Paris of North America", Montreal seamlessly blends European heritage with modernity. Everywhere you look, from the grand cathedrals to the old European-style buildings and modern skyscrapers, you will find the deep-rooted influence of French culture in this second-largest city of Canada.

    This morning, we make a memorable visit to St. Joseph's Oratory (a charitable donation is required). Later, we visit the Biodome (optional) in Olympic Park. It is a fascinating indoor replica of various eco-systems, including tropical rainforest, North American Laurentian maple forest, the Gulf of St. Lawrence and sub-Antarctic islands. It is a place not to be missed while in Montreal.

    The afternoon begins with a visit to an old-world sugar shack, reminiscent of pioneer life in earlier days. A traditional lunch (optional) is prepared with fresh produce picked from local farms. The sugar shack is subject to a CA$6 entrance fee, which includes a Maple Taffy snack.

    Later, we arrive at Quebec City. First, experience an unobstructed view of Old Quebec City and the St. Lawrence River from the Capital Observatory (optional). The panorama takes in the fortified walls, the Parliament Building, the Citadel and the historic battlefields.

    Next, you will have free time in Old Quebec City, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Old Quebec was the centre of New France before the British victory in 1759. The iconic Château Frontenac and the boardwalk overlooking the St. Lawrence River are essential stops. Visitors are also drawn to Quebec City's cobblestone streets, charming boutiques, cafés and centuries-old buildings. We stay overnight in Quebec City.

    This morning, we leave Quebec City and arrive at Montreal's historic Old Port, a district full of charm and vitality that brings together history and culture. You will discover many Old Montreal landmarks, including Notre-Dame Basilica, the Court House and City Hall.

    Arriving in Toronto in the evening concludes this journey. Whether you are visiting the region for the first time or fitting the highlights into a short break, this Toronto to Quebec City bus tour completes the main Eastern Canada cities in a single trip.

Frequently Asked Questions

Itinerary and sightseeing

  • The tour departs from Toronto and travels through Kingston, the Thousand Islands, Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec City over three days, returning to Toronto by way of Montreal's Old Port.

  • Free time in Old Quebec City is scheduled on the afternoon of Day 2, following the Capital Observatory visit. Travellers may explore the Château Frontenac, Dufferin Terrace, Place Royale, the Breakneck Steps and the cobblestone streets independently. Exact timing is at the tour leader's discretion on the day.

  • Guided orientations of all three cities are included. Ottawa covers Parliament Hill, the Peace Tower and the Centennial Flame; Montreal covers St. Joseph's Oratory and the Old Port; and Quebec City covers Old Quebec, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Museum of Canadian History is available as an optional visit.

  • Each passenger is required to select three attraction tickets, otherwise a CA$50 surcharge applies. The options are the 1000 Island Cruise (CA$42 per adult), the Canadian Museum of History (CA$27), the Montreal Biodome (CA$27) and the Quebec Capital Observatory (CA$15). Please note that the meal plan is not counted within the attraction ticket selection.

  • The tour departs from and returns to Toronto, which suits travellers already staying in the city as well as those using Toronto as a first stop before extending eastwards. Whether you are adding three days to a longer stay or hosting visiting family, the main Eastern Canada highlights can be completed without changing your base city.

  • The four main Eastern Canada cities are a considerable distance apart, and independent travel requires arranging intercity transport, accommodation and attraction tickets separately. A three-day guided itinerary covers Kingston, the Thousand Islands, Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec City in one trip, which is generally more time-efficient for travellers with limited holiday or those visiting the region for the first time.

  • Every departure is accompanied by an experienced Chinese-speaking tour leader who guides the sightseeing throughout. For travellers who would rather not navigate in English or French, this removes the work of long-distance driving, route planning, parking and booking hotels in four separate cities. Group transport is by luxury coach for the entire route.

  • Pick-up locations and times are confirmed on your booking confirmation [to be confirmed: full pick-up point list]. The boarding location cannot be changed within 3 days of the departure date. Passengers who miss the coach departure are deemed to have abandoned the tour, and no refund is issued.

  • All three tour codes follow exactly the same itinerary, and differ only in the hotel standard in Quebec City. Tour A (LCF) stays at Fairmont Le Château Frontenac; Tour B (YQB) stays at a 4-star Hilton or Delta or similar, within walking distance of Old Quebec; and Tour C (YCC) stays at a 3-star branded hotel approximately 15 minutes' drive from the Old Town, where breakfast is provided by the hotel. A separate Complimentary Breakfast Offer applies to C Tours only, and is valid for selected departure dates and hotels; the Company reserves the right to withdraw it where those conditions are not met. Montreal accommodation is identical across all three codes: Sheraton, Hyatt or Doubletree by Hilton or similar.

  • No. All meals are excluded, as are driver and tour guide gratuities, which are set at CA$16 per person per day for Canadian tours. Attraction admission fees, ferry fees and travel insurance are also excluded.

  • No. Double, triple and quad rooms are the same room type, accommodating a maximum of four people with no extra beds added. A double room may have one double bed, two single beds or two double beds. Infants under the age of 2 travel free but are not allocated a seat.

  • Buy 2 Get 2 is a double-value promotion applying to selected departure dates. On Tour C, quad-share rates start from CA$189.25 per person. Booking via 416-593-0593 is required and places are limited.

  • Online bookings require full payment at the time of booking, with confirmation sent to your email once approved. In-store bookings for 1 to 4 day tours take a CA$100 deposit per person, with the balance due 14 working days before departure. For cancellations made 14 working days or more before departure, a CA$100 handling fee per person is deducted and the balance refunded; changes to itinerary, date or hotel category incur a CA$50 fee per person. Cancellations within 14 days of departure are not refunded.

  • Guests are responsible for all necessary travel documents. Passports must be valid for at least six months. Travellers who are not yet Canadian citizens must hold a valid Permanent Resident Card (Maple Leaf Card) to return to Canada from abroad. If your passport requires a US visa, please arrange it in advance; visa-exempt passport holders must apply for ESTA before departure, except for Canadian passport holders. [to be confirmed: whether the itinerary physically enters US territory]

  • Eastern Canada has four distinct seasons. Autumn is peak foliage season and winter temperatures are low, so pack according to your departure month and bring comfortable walking shoes, as a significant part of the sightseeing in Old Quebec and Old Montreal is on foot. The order and content of the itinerary may be adjusted on the day according to conditions, at the tour leader's discretion.
