Narrated sightseeing cruises on the St. Lawrence from Old Québec, with brunch, lunch and evening options and bilingual guides. Good views of the city; food is pricey and narration can be hard to hear.
Croisières AML runs sightseeing cruises from the Old Québec waterfront. Reviewers describe 90-minute river trips with narration in French and English, views of the old city and the Château Frontenac from the water, and brunch, lunch and dinner cruise options. Evening and late-afternoon sailings catch the sunset.
Most guests enjoy it. Guides are called knowledgeable and engaging, the crew friendly, and the brunch surprisingly good, with small menu changes accommodated. Booking is easy and one guest noted a full refund if you cancel 24 hours ahead. Boarding opens about 30 minutes before departure, and diners are advised to arrive early to eat before sightseeing starts.
It suits families, first-time visitors and anyone who wants a relaxed look at the city from the river. Sitting on the top deck in good weather is popular.
Food and drinks on board cost more than in town, according to one visitor. Another could not hear the narration even after moving closer to the speakers. One guest hoping for a close view of Montmorency Falls found the boat stayed too far away. Busy sailings mean long boarding lines.
