The Essence of Quebec
Un reve réalisé
A guaranteed change of scenery.
(Translated by Google) An exceptional wild nature with a particularly welcoming population.
Québec - Gaspésie 2017
(Translated by Google) We had a wonderful trip thanks to; your organization. The welcome was everywhere exceptional and we appreciated the kindness and the numerous discussions with all the hosts that you have advised us.
20 day road trip
(Translated by Google) Magnificent trip via Parc de la Mauricie-St-Félicien-Tadoussac-Mingan-Tour de la Gaspésie and return via Quebec-Montréal. Excellent organization from Authentik Canada (Thank you Emilie). No organizational concerns throughout the stay. The vouchers were correct and the course satisfied us. If you can, going to the Parc des île Mingan is really worth the detour even if it is very far away. to a priori. In fact, the road is very pleasant and traffic is fluid. The change of scenery is total (tundra, monoliths, wild and intact environment, not to mention the friendliness of the local people). Authentik Canada should absolutely find local partners in this region that deserves it! Many thanks to; all and to maybe next time, who knows? [...]
Very nice organization
(Translated by Google) All the services offered have been perfectly rendered. All the hosts who received us are charming people with whom we were able to chat for a long time, and that's exactly what we were looking for.
Good preparation and pleasant trip.
(Translated by Google) No problem with Authentik Canada. Sometimes the choice of inns did not correspond to the our expectations. Quality animations. Request and return the car with Easy Discount. Good quality car.
a trip to; the height of my expectations!
(Translated by Google) I had been preparing for this trip for several months at; the help of the guide du routard, intending to personally book the hotels, but when I discovered the Authentik Canada site, my task was to facilitated. Everything I had envisioned to see was there, many accommodations offered were also recommended in the guide du routard. Your website is really very good, you can find everything there, and as you are from Quebec you know better than any French agency what is to be done. to do and to see. I had few exchanges with your adviser because for me everything was already there. stalled. I really feel like I was able to enjoy everything: grandiose landscapes (our Vosges in XXXL), very welcoming and cool people, unforgettable encounters with wild animals (moose, whales, seals, porcupine , beaver, etc.). Only one regret: not to have stayed. more than one night at Condo Natakam. Special mention also for the Nemiskau outfitter and the Valga+++ inn. [...]
QUALITY SERVICE
(Translated by Google) SOME IMPROVEMENTS TO BE MADE ON ONE OR TWO POINTS (HOTEL IN GASPE FOR EX) BUT WHICH DO NOT HARM THE QUALITY OF THE SERVICE AS A WHOLE
a very nice trip
(Translated by Google) A very nice trip despite two hiccups regarding accommodation. It would be useful on your part to carry out "mystery shopper" surveys to really realize certain things. Indeed, concerning the Triton, your guard adviser on 06.08 indicated to me; having visited the site in May. Fine, but when you work with a service provider by talking to him about the volume of turnover, it is obvious that he is rolling out the red carpet for you and hiding the reality from you....by completing this survey ;te it is we who play this role of "mystery shopper" ???? In addition, we had the impression that "authentik" customers were treated less well than others: we had to 2 or 3 times from rooms located at the top of the stairs leading to the lobby of the hotel or inn. Finally, on a more general level, some stages could have been shortened and others lengthened. [...]
head full of memories
Wonderful trip perfectly organized. and follow-up
(Translated by Google) We shared the organization of our stay and our activities with AUTHENTIC and we do not regret it.
All of the services and advice provided in a magnificent "roadbook" (accompaniment guide) have contributed to to the success of our Canadian journey. Many thanks to; Sophie-Andrée Legault for her help in solving the small problem related to to the rental of our rental vehicle.
[...]
Super organization and very good advice
(Translated by Google) Everything went very well. . The selection of places of accommodation on your advice was very judicious. Just a small flat on the inn on the sea where; we had added of ourselves one night during the trip. We have been very surprised at the difference in reception at the restaurant between the morning we had reserved; and the morning you had booked; with a different menu between the 2 mornings....and a much less attentive welcome; the second morning.
Otherwise everything was perfect. I would advise without worries your agency to; friends and would think of; you for a future trip to North America.
[...]
Very good advice for a first discovery of Quebec
(Translated by Google) Overall very satisfied with the stay. A downside concerning certain nights (rooms poorly insulated or noisy). GPS indications provided by Authentik Canada a little approximate for certain drop points. Well-balanced organization and planning of activities and stages.
It seems that the hotel rooms allocated to Authentik Canada travelers are not always the best located. We tested view of the road, bedroom immediately next door; side reception or kitchens.
[...]
Very Satisfying Journey Overall
A magnificent tour very well organized!
(Translated by Google) We are very happy to have chosen Authentik Canada for this trip! Everything was perfectly organized.
At the slightest problem, we were able to call them and it was solved. directly (for example, the car rental company wanted to charge us additional costs; in doubt, I contacted our adviser Laurence: 2 emails later everything was settled!).
The activities offered are of high quality, we have only had good experiences.
To recommend: the descent of the Bonaventure River: magnificent, we loved it!
Be careful however, the budget can rise quite quickly on the spot because life is more expensive (p/r in Belgium).
We recommend ++++!

Brilliant
Wonderful experience
(Translated by Google) The Tour of Gaspésie proposed; is magnificent, it allows you to discover the different facets of Québec and is adapted to your needs. for a family with children. It is a journey rich in discoveries and landscapes. I highly recommend it and congratulations to; Authentik Canada for quality of the service offered from the beginning of the preparation of the trip until the end of the trip. its term. [...]
Different facets of Quebec
(Translated by Google) Trip that allows you to see different facets of Quebec. However, we would advise doing so after June 15, as some activities are closed before.
Otherwise, magnificent landscapes and very welcoming hosts. Special mention for the parks of Gaspésie.
beautiful relaxing landscape and exceptional welcome
(Translated by Google) Very good advice provided by the agency to define the route of the Mauricie, Saguenay Fjord, the tour of Gaspésie according to our wishes. This trip allowed us to have a general idea of this region while taking advantage of free time to discover the parks (hiking), the cruise to discover the area. Bonaventure Island (very impressive colony of Gannets) and Percé , the villages, the cities of Montreal and Quebec....
Our favourites: the accommodation in inns or gites allowed us to appreciate the welcome of the hosts and their very good breakfast. The Bois-Joli maple grove in Saint Jean Port-Joli, the visit guided by the owner allowed us to discover the production of maple syrup and its products. We very much appreciated local gastronomy (poutine, pogo, tourtère, lobster, salmon with maple syrup and other fish, blueberry-based desserts, pancakes with maple syrup.. .) You should know that for the period from the end of May to mid June some sites are still closed (opening from June 24) and also mosquito period.

Disastrous pre-sale from our advisor
(Translated by Google) General impression of our advisor:
- Very dilettante and not having much interest in take into account our requests,
- and always a GPS in the car rental contract (to be negotiated with the rental company on arrival)
- despite our telephone exchanges, no information on the extreme difficulties in to visit and to circulate at; Montreal (one night, and it's still too much)
- B&Bs where we stayed two nights: tiny room often in the basement and where we could not move with the luggage ... (and yet, we did not negotiate the prices! and where we had the opportunity to compare with other free rooms!), is it really a partnership?
- obviously no experience of the Delta Quebec: after numerous requests by email, all we had to do was tell us that a valet was taking charge of the vehicle... but!!!
Impression of the trip: VERY GOOD
- some imprecision on the road book (restaurant for sale...)
- too bad that autentik customers advised us Croisiès Escoumins ... we are starting treatments in France to follow up on the ACCIDENT of September 27.
- a big thank you to; Val&rie PIN
- however not immediately. the accident, a deep question about the assistance of Authentik!

A great trip with Authentik Canada
(Translated by Google) I want to let you know we had a great trip. The preparation of the trip was perfect, including the roadbook with all the good addresses and recommendations. The hostels offered were very beautiful and the rooms comfortable, so we met there; a very warm welcome.
We recommend Authentik Canada for the judicious choice of addresses, support before and during the trip. We received everything that had been received. promised when booking. Authentik Canada is recognized by the hosts and the car rental company (Discount) as a very serious agency, which means that we have been very well received everywhere, with a lot of attention. Congratulations to; Authentik Canada for off-the-beaten-track proposals, impeccable and very professional service.

The perfect trip does not exist but it comes as close as possible with this agency!
(Translated by Google) To start at the beginning, I made a tailor-made one-month solo road trip and from the beginning, in the preparation, the choice of the route, the advice, kindness and simplicity all summer perfect and I would even say reassuring for someone like me who had never traveled before. (a big thank you to Karine, my advisor).
During the trip I want to say the same, no problem, I would even add that it is pleasant to see when arriving in the various lodges and inns that the travel agency is appreciated by our hosts, I even had the right to small benefits offered by some people just because I was going through authentikcanada so it's pretty cool.
I really loved it. the landscapes, the hikes, the extremely friendly guides and the various activities that I was able to do (in particular the seaplane flight over the seigneury of Triton, what a joy).
Personal favorite for La Mauricie National Park, a real corner of paradise.
Finally, I would add that the roadbook offered by the agency is simply perfect, between the restaurant proposals and places to visit. visiting is a real time saver in the organization when you move every day. I might add something in the roadbook in the “”practical info” this is a small list of the different supermarkets (IGA, Maxi, L'inter marche...) present everywhere in Quebec because at the beginning I admit that I look for or go shopping (not knowing the big supermarket brands ;) so as not to have to always get them at a convenience store or eat at a restaurant.
In short, to conclude, it was an exceptional trip and I only regret one thing: it didn't last. one month, I will be obliged to to come back.
Thanks to; the entire authentikcanada team for your work.

Good organisation
(Translated by Google) Upon our arrival at Montreal (1st stage) we have received our travel diary. All useful information was there, separated by tabs. I would have liked a presentation, not by type, but by day/stage; the information being therefore linked to each day/stage and directly usable.
At the level of the trip, we sometimes had the feeling of going very quickly or of having time to go; places less rich in discoveries; but having no experience for our 1st visit to Quebec, it was a nice approach and we covered (quickly) the main one.
From abroad, it is difficult to get an idea of the provision of certain accommodations, some were below what was promised, too bad.
A shortcoming, however, is not having met; our travel planner.
We made some great encounters and discoveries.
[...]
the feeling of being at home the house and a furious desire to leave
It was a nice trip
(Translated by Google) Good program overall, but some details to be noted. discuss aloud.
A very beautiful adventure with images full of eyes
(Translated by Google) Nothing to do complain about the organization and support provided
Having circulated 200 km on non-motorable roads and the many road works, additional insurance is strongly recommended when renting the SUV vehicle of choice. We have had impacts on the windshield.
Super Whales outing, àgrave; also do Mont Jaques Cartier to see the caribou, of course luck must be at the rendezvous this was the case for us with great happiness
A little disappointed by the La Valga outfitter 1 night is enough, no activity; offered on site except for the kayak tour and meals, nothing more
A little disappointed with the homestay accommodation, too bad the meal was not served. taken into account (certainly a misunderstanding), but the location of the accommodation was far from from Quebec
[...]
Wonderful stay with a very warm welcome whatever the place visited.
(Translated by Google) What happiness this three-week trip! Magnificent landscapes, warm people met during our stages or by chance during our wanderings. Nothing will have disappointed us, we can go there with our eyes closed (well, so to speak, because it is better to have them wide open to enjoy the spectacle offered by the great spaces of Quebec) , especially since the organization of the trip by our adviser Marion was irreproachable and very attentive. [...]
A trip to; recommend
(Translated by Google) The best: The welcome of the people you meet, diversity; accommodation, proposed sites,
services: excellent for the agency: kindness, availability, competence.
services: excellent at all "welcoming"
A small flat for an "evasive" estimate of the luggage capacity of the rental car
the least: a lack of flexibility; for the delivery of the car, a delivery of the road book on site while information could be useful before departure
(eg cell phone: operator choice "Roger-Bell" )
We did not see animals in total freedom; in the different parks. I would therefore not insist on the presence at the every turn of a moose or a
caribou in the documentation. Apart from the road signs.... Ditto for the expression "breathtaking" taken up too often and which leaves something to be desired. think
that tourists are asthmatic. I really appreciate Quebec humor, so I allow myself this comment.
[...]
A great and unforgettable trip
cured!
(Translated by Google) We have been coucoun&;s, travel with all the comfort of not worrying about "where to sleep? what are the most recommended places to eat? what activities are to be done absolutely? etc). mind knowing that everything is booked in advance, and not necessarily needing to start the trip months in advance, since everything is indicated in the book, which is prepared in advance. Everything is done with care, everything is run in. Our advisor Laurence is very attentive, thank you to her. one or two small downsides: Sauvageau, and the Godbout-Matane ferry. [...]
