Quebec City Ice Hotel & Winter TourIt's time for our annual Quebec City Ice Hotel & Winter Tour. Quebec City in winter has beauty like no other city. The history, the charm, the old town, sparkling with a gentle covering of snow, it glitters both during the day and at night. Please note: We will only be touring the Ice Hotel, NOT staying in it!

Trip Highlights
Ice Hotel
You just have to experience the Ice Hotel for yourself and words are simply insufficient to describe it. Click on any of the photos above for the full size versions.

Montmorency Falls
Just spectacular! There's no other word to describe the Montomorency Falls in winter. The falls are frozen over and one can stand at the bottom of the falls and one can only look up in awe at the wonders of nature. (Subject to prevailing weather conditions of course). Look carefully at the photo above, you'll see people standing at the bottom of the falls! That will be us.. for those who wish to walk up to the base of the falls.
Quebec Old Town
Morrin Centre
Built over 200 years ago as the city’s first prison, the Morrin Centre now also houses one of the world’s most beautiful libraries.
Ramble through the sinister jail cells. See graffiti carved into the floors by inmates and the iron rings used to chain them down. In cell block A6, see the exhibition entitled “Doing Time: the Quebec City Common Gaol (1808 – 1867).” This exhibition covers the first modern prison in Canada, part of which still exists in the heart of our building.
You will discover a hidden, dark and almost unknown part of the city’s history by exploring the building’s past, the life of its prisoners and the conditions of their imprisonment. Learn also about Morrin College, the city’s first English-language institute of higher education. Then, let yourself be spellbound by the haunting stories surrounding our charming Victorian library, home to a collection of literary gems, some of which date back to the 16th century.
