Rimouski is a lively city with no shortage of ideas! In addition to numerous tourist sites and attractions (open to groups even in the off-season), there are all sorts of seminars, activities and workshops available to fit any budget!

Would you like more personal guidance? We can offer a program of activities that is tailored to suit your group's interests and budget. We will even take care of getting tenders for transportation.

Tempted by a visit to the submarine Onondaga followed by a workshop on edible flowers at Reford Gardens? How about a seaweed tasting or an introductory belly-dancing or Zumba dance fitness class?

The hardest part will be choosing!
