GUIDED CRUISING TOUR ON RIVIERE DE MILLES ILES
Hop on the Blue Heron cruiser, and listen to all the
information given by the guide who is so animated, she makes it all
interesting. But you have to be in the mood to listen. As there is not a silent cruise.
Benoit the, captain, made me feel right at home
Passing islands, you’ll find out abut some of the population who inhabited them. For example, the Darling family owned the island that takes their moniker. Tragically one if the sons crashed his plane on the bridge. One family never made it to church at Christmas. The ice gave way on their caleche.
I enjoyed the animal information, especially the fish images they held up. Some pretty scary ones too. There are so many species of fish in the river, you’ll marvel at how varied they are. Ducks too abound here and they are always within sight of your cruise tour.
It was
wonderful to spend an hour passing islands gazing at the shorelines and the lovely
houses that dot the it. The tour is only in French, so beware if you are going to
soak in all the historical and botanical side of things on this tour.
Supplement the tour by gliding close to the water on a kayak or canoe. You can even catch some of those fish the guide brought to our attention.
Listen or dream on.
