The St. Lawrence River in the Heart of the Boreal Winter

In the heart of the northern winter, set sail aboard Le Commandant Charcot, a welcoming cocoon, to discover the St. Lawrence River and its unique and enchanting wide open spaces. From Quebec to Saint-Pierre Island, via Gaspé, Grindstone Cape, Saguenay and Sept-Îles, cruise on the mighty waters of this body of water and admire the changing landscapes where nature reigns supreme. The boreal forests and pristine valleys invite contemplation and exploration. You may even be lucky enough to spot an iconic caribou or moose in this magnificent setting, where the colourful dwellings of the temporary fishing villages built on the ice of the Saguenay Fjord defy the harshness of the winter landscape. Experience warm, unforgettable moments as you meet local communities renowned for their hospitality.

The itinerary is subject to change based on port approvals and to comply with applicable government regulations. Please also note that the sailing programme, shore visits and activities cannot be guaranteed, as they are subject to weather and ice conditions.
