The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Skim the legendary Saguenay Fjord on a nimble Zodiac with a bilingual naturalist, tracking up to 13 whale species in one of the world's great cetacean sanctuaries. Few wildlife encounters on earth rival a beluga surfacing at arm's length.
Trek vertiginous cliff-top trails inside Parc National du Fjord-du-Saguenay, where forested highlands plunge 300 m to ink-dark glacial waters below. This is raw, UNESCO-calibre wilderness with zero crowds and panoramas that redefine 'spectacular'.
Charter a private boat to glide beneath the cathedral cliffs of the Saguenay Fjord, gazing up at Cap Trinité's soaring rock face and its legendary statue from the water — the only perspective that reveals its true, breathtaking scale.
Step into the Musée du Fjord for an immersive, curatorial journey through the Saguenay's extraordinary underwater and terrestrial ecosystems — the most intellectually rewarding cultural stop in the region.
Venture inside the colossal Aluminerie de Deschambault or the celebrated Expérience Sacré-Coeur site for an insider look at aluminium smelting — a process that shaped Saguenay into a modern industrial legend and social crucible.
Paddle a sea kayak through the Bec-Scie ecological reserve at the fjord's edge — a protected wilderness of sea caves, tidal currents, and cliff faces accessible only by water, led by expert local guides.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
