Choice Highlights

• Choose between two carefully selected activities
• Quebec City: Experience Montmorency Falls, the remarkable natural wonder that towers 30 meters higher than Niagara Falls. Walk the full width of the falls on a suspension bridge between both sides of the park with roaring water below for a unique, adrenaline filled perspective. If you're feeling more adventurous, take the 487 panoramic staircase down along the cliff.
• Quebec City: Get up close and personal discovering metal craftsmanship at the copper art studio. Learn how – beginning with a Jewellery box decorated with tin and embossed copper panels – the repoussé technique has been passed down in the Gilles family for over 90 years. After seeing a collection of fascinating copper art, experiment for yourself using thin sheets of copper and tools to create your own work or art.
