General description

This all-inclusive expedition includes 5 days on the water. However, the duration of your stay will be 7 days. Depending on weather conditions and your departure date, the timetable and activity schedule may be subject to change. In the event of special weather conditions, an alternative itinerary is planned and will be announced at the virtual preparatory group meeting on August 28.

Meals

Mer et monde écotours is committed to offering a specialized menu to suit the particular needs of each expedition group.

Sprinkled with flavor and local suppliers, while adding a sustainable and respectful vision, we will offer you meals adapted to our environment. Fish, shellfish, wild meats, mushrooms and wild herbs, banana bread, veggie pâté and homemade energy balls will all be part of your meal. It’s important to mention any allergies or special dietary requirements in advance.

The menu will be presented to participants a few days before the expedition. Please note that all meals from supper on Day 1 to lunch on Day 7 are included, cooked and served by the guides on site.

Please bring your own snacks, although some will be provided by Mer et monde écotours.

Travel logistics

Travel logistics between the departure and arrival points will be handled entirely by Mer et monde écotours. Your personal vehicle will remain on the Mer et monde écotours site for the duration of the activity.

Equipment and participants will be transported in a 12 to 15-passenger minibus and another support vehicle. Travel arrangements will be adapted to the itinerary of your expedition, and this information will be given to you by your guide at the meeting scheduled for the day before your departure.

During the expedition, in the event of an emergency, the minibus will be available for transportation between the extraction points and the destination (Mer et monde écotours, hospital services in La Malbaie, Les Escoumins, etc.).
