Calm and touristic

Published on Feb, 2025

We really enjoyed our cruise! We were able to learn more about the history of the city of Montreal as well as the St. Lawrence River. Seeing the city from the water is not something common, but it’s a very original idea to spend quality time during our vacation week with my wife.

A must-do cruise!

Published on Jan, 2025

This cruise was such a great way to explore the St. Lawrence River and see the city from a whole new angle! The AML Cavalier Maxim is a beautiful boat with sunny terraces where you can relax and soak up the views. The snack bar had a good selection—sandwiches, salads, muffins, and even cocktails (the Captain’s cocktail was so refreshing!). Just keep in mind that snacks and drinks aren’t included, but it was nice to have those options on board. Overall, it was such a relaxing and fun experience. Perfect for anyone who wants to enjoy the river and the city at the same time! Would definitely recommend.

Nice ride along the river

Published on Oct, 2024

It was nicely done with some good information. It was a lovely way to spend the afternoon. I have nothing else to say.

Great Trip

Published on Oct, 2024

Great trip, despite some cold and wet weather. Bilingual guide kept up with the scenery and was informative. Boat had plenty of indoor and outdoor seating plus a bar and kitchen. Well worth the money.

St Lawrence River Day Cruise

Published on Sep, 2024

Wife and I enjoyed a view from the cabin of this large powerful vessel. It took us thru powerful currents on the St Lawrence River giving us a look at this Beautiful City
