Informative and pleasant - A relaxing 90 minute cruise. The bilingual cruise guide talked for most of it alternating between French and English. It must be exhausting and she did it well. We passed several distinctive buildings that I wondered about and she didn’t discuss but otherwise we got a good overview of a lovely area.

Relaxing break, nice views of the city from the river - Was a worthwhile tour. Interesting views of the city from the water. There is an indoor area to sit and have a drink; recommended.

Nice way to see the city form a different angle - The trip takes you up as far as the Montmerency Falls but you are not that close to them on the river so if you want to see them best go there. But we enjoyed the trip and the guide’s commentary. Drinks and food available on board, more proxy than in town but the chicken wrap I had was huge and very tasty.

It was okay. - The tour guide was very good/informative and the boat was comfortable. Just felt the tour was a bit boring and having a hard time describing why.
