To make this boat cruise even more memorable, why not have it at noon, with a meal prepared by a local caterer? The Gatineau-based craft brewery À La Dérive has designed 3 custom sandwiches full of fresh ingredients, served with homemade chips and non-alcoholic beverages especially for this cruise on the Ottawa River. A great way to enjoy your time on the water!
