Saint-Jean-de-l'Île-d’Orléans

Saint-Jean-de-l'Île-d'Orléans, QC, Canada

One of the favorite experiences of many clients who visit Québec is exploring L’Ile-d’Orleans on a bicycle. The island in the St. Lawrence River offers a chance to experience a different side of Québec from that found in the urban centers of Montreal and Québec City. Stop for freshly picked strawberries at some of the many farms, and visit Saint-Jean-de-l’Ile-d’Orleans on the southern coast of the island. The town was long a maritime center and captain’s houses and centuries-old churches lines the streets (the one seen here dates from 1734). However you want to get around as you explore Québec, email me at bettyjo.currie@afar.com so we can take care of the details. Photo by Harvey Barrison, https://flic.kr/p/pMySqj
