Île d’Orléans
Visiting Île d’Orléans is probably one of the better ways to experience the rural charm of Quebec City. Located about fifteen minutes away, Île d’Orléans is an island that contains six mini provinces that all have historic significance. The island contains thousands of gardens, including one designated solely to lavender. Numerous activities are available in this petite region and most depend on season. Open year round is the famous Cassis Monna & Filles, a wine tasting and food haunt that encapsulates a little bit of the island’s magic.
