Venture on an enchanting 4-night journey that combines the elegance of urban Montreal with the old-world European allure of Quebec City. It includes a one-of-a-kind overnight experience at the Ice Hotel – Hôtel de Glace! Here is your step-by-step itinerary, crafted to ensure a seamless and exhilarating travel experience:
Day 1. Arrival in Montreal – SENS HØTEL

Day 2. Voyage to Quebec City – Ice Hotel
In the morning, board the VIA Rail for a scenic 3-hour train ride from Montreal to Quebec City. Marvel at the picturesque landscapes and charming towns along the St. Lawrence River from the comfort of your seat. Upon arrival, a transfer will take you to the magical Hôtel de Glace for an extraordinary overnight stay in either a thematic suite with 1 bed, or in 1 bedroom for 2 with 1 or 2 beds. Your adventure includes a cozy sleeping bag for a night spent in a beautifully sculpted ice room. And for those who don’t want to brave the full night in the Ice Hotel, a backup room at the Valcartier Hotel will be available just a hundred yards away. A similar Ice Hotel’s appearance in The 2002 James Bond movie “Die Another Day” added a memorable and visually stunning element to the film, and it showcased the allure of this remarkable icy retreat in the world of James Bond.
