shashasharon Says: I camped along the seaway in Grandes Bergeronnes..I saw whales day and night..we took a kayaking excursion from our campsite..to tell you how that feels to see these beautiful mammals in all their glory..close so close you could touch them..you think they are going to tip...
mim95 Says: Tadoussac is in the association of the most beautiful villages in Quebec. One of the criteria is the maintenance of the buildings in town and the heritage and quality of these structures. All the houses are well-maintained with a manicured front lawn. Each one is unique with...
mim95 Says: The boardwalk that begins in front of the hotel has an excellent view of the beach below and the marina, as well as watching wildlife too. There are benches along the walkway. We saw a couple of seals in the bay area at high tide. The water level can change as much as 5...
mim95 Says: The eye-catching chapel is the oldest wooden church in North America. It was built in 1747. It is a small museum now, with exhibits showing the artifacts from that era. There is an admission charge to enter the small chapal.
mim95 Says: Many people came here to watch the whales. Other than taking a cruise on a zodiac or a larger boat, you can also watch them from Point de l'Inset, which is located at the mouth of the Saguenay River. You can bring a lunch or snack and sit on the rocks to enjoy the whales...
eternel2002 Says: Tadoussac is one of the popular destination to watch whale and admire the nature, cruises and small boats are available dailly at the port of the village to go visit the sagueny fijor and watch the wales, the tour takes between 3-4 hours, we were not very lucky because the...
eternel2002 Says: Take a walk on tadoussac bay, from the village, passing by the tadoussac hotel until the marina where you can go to the top of the mount and see nice view of the area. Also enjoy to see the sunset if you have a chance. it's very nice :)
eternel2002 Says: Tadoussac is a small village but charming, you can visit it by walking, the lake side, the port and its bay are very nice to see.
The hiking trails of Tadoussac
Jefie Says: Of course most people who go to Tadoussac want to go on a whale-watching cruise, but if being out on the water is not your thing, or if you can't afford such a cruise, there's a nice alternative in Tadoussac: the hiking trails! There are five great hiking trails in...
etrehumain Says: This activity is totally incredible, you have to do it once in your life: it's whale watching. There is two possibilities to see them: on a cruise ship or on a zodiac. If you're looking for a memorable experience, choose the zodiac. I've done it twice and each time it was...
cfuentesm Says: A nice route to return from the Charlevoix Region to Quebec City is to take the route towards L'Anse St Jean, and when you arrive at La Baie, take the highway down towards the city. It takes longer but it's worth it. Just follow the Ha Ha river.
cfuentesm Says:
cfuentesm Says: Take a bout tour of the Saguenay Fjord in search of the whales. I only saw belugas, probably because of the bad weather. But it was a thrill.

Chez Mathilde: Best restaurant in Tadoussac for gourmets
cowbeech Says: The ambience is of the simplest. The cuisine is WAY ABOVE what you might expect. The presentation owes something to the nouvelle movement, but the chef has thought out every dish, not just the main ingredient and its flavour. What accompanies it has been finely calculated to...
Cafe Boheme: Great spot for breakfast
Jefie Says: The Cafe Boheme is located on the main street (rue des Pionniers) in Tadoussac and is always full of people, especially during summer. They serve nice light breakfasts (no eggs and bacon, but plenty of fruits and crepes) and light meals during the day. They also have a nice...
Au Pere Coquart: My favorite bistro in Tadoussac
Jefie Says: I just love the atmosphere at this little Bistro located on a quiet side street in the heart of the village. There's a nice patio when you can spend a few hours relaxing after a long day spent on the trails around town or on a cruise. The menu is simple but the food is good...
Take the ferry across the Saguenay River
Jefie Says: If you're driving down to Tadoussac from Quebec City, you'll have to get across the Saguenay River aboard a ferry. The 10-minute ride between Baie-Ste-Catherine and Tadoussac is free and during the day the ferries run every 20 minutes. If you're travelling at night or early...
Simonneeddy Says: We were on a tour bus the second time by auto the first trip. You must use the Ferry to cross the river. There is no Bridge.
Marie-Claude Says: You pay about 50 to 60 $ CAN to take a boat and see the whales. It is quite expensive and you are not even sure to see whales. I saw just one flipper in all of the 2 hours of the tour. Ware hot clothes. We went in August and we were cold with our winter coats. It is very...
First marina on the Saguenay River
ambergs7 Says: The marina has good facilities, but it does get overcrowded at the peak of the season. There are mooring facilities away from the marina that are very close to the beach.

Charlevoix Region and Fjord du Saguenay
If you are visiting Quebec City, it's worth to take a trip up the Charlevoix region towards the Saguenay Fjord. I got a lot of rain but anyway, the landscape was a beauty. Take a boat tour and try to...
