A Cruise Close to Home

Colour photograph of a white boat moored and filled with passengers ready for a cruise on the Des Prairies River.

Les Croisières Laval vessel, property of Jeanne Drolet

There were many business opportunities on our rivers. Some promoters even had the original idea of offering guided tours of the Des Prairies River. This photograph features a vessel owned by Les Croisières Laval, which operated in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Even today, companies offer this service to people who want to enjoy the fresh air on the river and the riverside landscape.
