Welcome to Ile d’Orléans, classified as a World Héritage jewel by UNESCO

Where history meets the beauty of the earth and the pride of its inhabitants.

An enchanting beginning of the journey in discovering the vast patrimonial, cultural, architectural, natural, gastronomical and artistic treasures that the island and the beautiful region of Québec have to offer.

L’île d’Orléans is considered to be one of the most ancient colonial territories of New France. It is located only 5 minutes away from the Old Québec City and at approximately the same distance from all of the other attractions so coveted by our tourists-travellers.

The enchanting Autumn forest colors or the astounding wintry white landscape are all part of the extremely beautiful scenery of Québec.

Come and share our sun, our pure air and our quality of life…

As Félix Leclerc once said in one of his songs :
“There is around the Island, forty-two miles of peaceful things…“

The surroundings are simply and utterly enchanting! It’s absolutely impossible to get bored during your stay in our beautiful and welcoming region!
