-
What time of year and which days is it offered?
Departures take place during the holiday season, at 7 p.m., in Montreal and Quebec City. Rates vary by day: more affordable Sunday to Wednesday, higher Thursday to Saturday.
-
How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking at least six months in advance, especially for November and December, when dates fill up quickly. That said, some availability may still be offered depending on the size of your group. Don't hesitate to contact us to discuss your needs.
-
Can a room or the entire boat be privatized?
Yes. It is possible to hold an event in a shared room, or to privatize a room, a deck or the entire boat, for groups of 10 to 700 people. Contact a representative at 1-877-795-6532.
-
Are there options for allergies and dietary restrictions?
Yes. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options are available; you simply need to let us know when booking. Meals are not, however, guaranteed to be allergen-free.
-
Why choose a cruise rather than a traditional reception hall?
The dinner cruise brings together in a single location the bistronomic meal prepared on board, the DJ, the holiday decor and a view of the city from the river, without having to separately coordinate the venue, the caterer and the entertainment.
