DAY 3: QUEBEC CITY
After breakfast we will tour Québec City, once the
center of New France and one of the most historic
and best-preserved cities in North America. Upon
arrival, enjoy an included guided tour of Canada's
only walled city. Until the British victory of 1759, Old
Québec was the center of New France; today it's a
UNESCO World Heritage Site. Within the walls are
the Place d'Armes, the Laval Seminary,
and ancient Place Royale. Also, see the Old World
houses crowding the narrow streets in Lower Town
by the St. Lawrence River and the historic Plains
of Abraham. Continue to the spectacular Montmorency
Falls which are higher than Niagara Falls.
Continue to St. Anne De Beaupre Shrine. After our
visit at the Shrine we will continue to a restaurant for
dinner. (B, D)
DAY 4: QUEBEC CITY/MONTREAL
After breakfast we board our motor coach and
drive to Montreal where we will go to St. Joseph's
Oratory for Mass. St. Joseph's Oratory is a great basilica
with a giant copper dome built in honor of St.
Joseph, patron saint of Canada. The massive edifice,
high on the slopes of Mount Royale in Quebec,
belies its simple origins as the dream of a humble
lay Brother André. Pilgrims still come from all over
North America to pray for healing at the shrine of
Fr. André, who was canonized a saint in 2010. Continue
to the Olympic Park to view Montreal's skyline.
Visit the amazing “Biodome” which creates some of
the most beautiful ecosystems of the Americas. We
will enjoy dinner before retiring to our hotel. (B, D)
