- Cassis Monna & Filles - Our story began in 1872 when Louis Monna founded the eponymous maison Louis Monna, which specialized in the distillery of fine wines and spirits in l’Hérault, France. In 1925, his daughter Louise took over the family business with her husband, and rebranded it Pin-Monna Successeur. Meanwhile, her brother Émile founded the Source Monnaguette, offering alcohols and lemonades. Proud of this heritage, his son, also Émile Monna, sails for Quebec where he teaches his children all that he knows - among them Bernard, founder of Cassis Monna & Filles.
Today, it is the 5th generation of the Monna family - sisters Catherine and Anne - who stand at the helm of their family business.

Amazing Day Riding Bikes Around the Island ~ Wonderful and Interesting Stops Along the Way - This was hands-down the best day of our vacation to Quebec City. Our guide, the "famous" (LOL - if you know, you know) Tony was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, courteous and attentive to the safety of our group. We traveled along with a lovely group of eight other fellow tourists. The bikes seemed to be well-maintained and were easy to ride. I have an electric bike (pedal assist) at home, but these bikes definitely have more power. I didn't think I would use the motor only aspect of the bike, but I ended up using and loving it on a couple of short and steep uphill climbs. We did ride on the road, so it is necessary to feel comfortable with that - or at least be willing to get comfortable with it. We went on a busy fall Saturday and I didn't feel like there was an excessive amount of traffic driving alongside us, for the most part. I felt very safe and comfortable.
We made 5 stops, as outlined in the tour description, and they were each unique and interesting. Items are available for purchase, so you may want to bring a backpack. We bought strawberry jam (delicious!) and a bottle of wine to bring home with us.
I loved this bike tour and would recommend it! Wonderful way to see another area of Quebec, other than Quebec City.

Amazing - This was the highlight if our trip. Maryanne, our guide, was wonderful. We were able to experience the island and get a taste of the local agriculture in a very relaxed manner. The e-bikes made the hills easy to navigate and it was a great way to see the island-especially during fall with the beautiful colours. Definitely would reccomend!

Fabulous tour - This is truly one of the best tours I've ever taken. Tony is a fantastic tour leader - knowledgeable, friendly, highly engaging. Loved all the stops we made and almost everything we sampled. The cycling isn't difficult at all, and whatever hills there are, they are easily managed by the e-bike.

Lovely island, perfect to see on an e-bike - Great fat tire bikes which were fantastic on the frequently rutted road shoulder. Loved all the local scenery on the island. Stopped at a gallery, chocolate shop, apple and fruit orchard, coffee shop and finally the vineyard. Team was great to work with and pretty easy access from the Quebec City cruise terminal via Uber ride

If you are considering this... please do it!!! - This was THE BEST guided tour I have ever done. My friend and I went in late August just in time to enjoy the amazing fresh fruit at the farm stand. This tour was absolutely magical, with an informed tour guide (she was so kind and accommodating!), incredible views, and a small group of other people. The perfect way to see Quebec City from a distance and enjoy the incredible island. It was a perfect escape from the city while being in robust and wonderful new scenery. If you are considering this, please do it!!! The e-bikes were easy to navigate and I was able to do the whole bike route without breaking a sweat. I was hesitant at first about this activity, however, it became the absolute highlight of the trip. It is a 15-minute drive from the city making for an easy commute to get there. Although it is 3 hours in total, it flew by and at the end, I wished it was longer!
Tip: Just make sure to bring a small backpack for the road to carry any belongings because you will want to take lots of pictures!
