Customized Quebec snowmobile adventures is what Connecticut-based Bon Voyage Snow Adventures is all about. If your idea of the ultimate snowmobile trip is one where the days are spent aggressively carving up the world's best trail system and nights enjoying Quebec's famed nightlife, then the "Big Bore" tour is right up your alley.
The Big Bore Tour is a long distance trip without equal—over 1,200 miles altogether. The experience of riding seventy miles without stopping for a road crossing or encountering another rider can be thrilling. Covering one hundred plus miles by noontime is fairly common. Lunch is served at a fully staffed "relais" located far enough into the park that the electricity is generated on site and the employees sleep there all winter long.
A long distance trip is by its very nature a significant accomplishment when completed. Our approach involves maximizing the experience while at the same time minimizing risk. In this effort, there is no substitute for experience. We have learned many lessons over the years; some significant, others not so much. All of which when combined directly impact the quality of our trips. Whether it's a satellite phone to call for assistance or having a network of preferred service providers available, our experience in long distance touring makes the difference.
Maybe you’ve grown tired of riding the same loops; dealing with high traffic and marginal conditions? Snowmobiling in Quebec is unlike any other. We never cover the same ground twice, so every mile is an adventure. When one has a twenty thousand mile interconnecting trail system to work with, the choices are many. The two hundred clubs do a fantastic job of consistently grooming and maintaining this vast trail system.
By late afternoon, we are within striking distance of a town with a variety of secure hotels to choose from. After check-in and securing your sled, the evening is open for you to enjoy the lounge or any of the other amenities at the hotel.
In this region of Quebec the season typically runs from early January through mid-March. This long season means plenty of snow for grooming: thus helping to create the world's best trail system.
Bon Voyage’s trips are structured so that the riding capabilities of our clients are closely matched. This is critical to developing a group that works well together. We find that groups of six riders offer the best experience. Our trips are also designed to be interactive, meaning you will have input on how the trip is conducted. You will never feel as though you are merely "following the leader."
The “Big Bore” tour is just one of the many custom tours Bon Voyage offers.
