The Twilight Cruise
A new adventure in Montreal
As the sun fades behind the skyscrapers, the river takes on a different mood… darker, more enigmatic. Come aboard the Bateau Fantôme and let yourself be carried away by the magic of twilight.
The Twilight Call
As night falls and the light fades, the Bateau Fantôme begins its mysterious journey.
Make yourself comfortable, share a toast with friends or colleagues, and let the river lull you to sleep… but keep your eyes open. A shiver in the air, a furtive shadow gliding across the water… a fleeting illusion or a presence from elsewhere?
This unique moment invites you to savor the moment, between pleasure and thrills. But beware… once night falls, some spirits seem to prefer the company of the living. Are you ready to share this cruise with them?
Between light and shadow
As the water flows by, Old Montreal is transformed. Its historic silhouettes take shape in the half-light, while the skyline gradually lights up. From the river, everything seems larger, more mysterious.
A slight shiver, a mist that skims the water… and what if the scenery itself is hiding a few secrets? Open your eyes, capture the moment, and if you dare, ask the captain for a photo break. After all, spirits are entitled to their moments of glory too…

FAQ
Can parents accompany their children on the excursion?
Yes, that’s right! While the kids dive into their treasure hunt, the bigger ghosts are invited to accompany them or chat with the boat’s captain. He’ll be happy to share the secrets of the port and tell authentic mysterious stories about Montreal. On board, adventure awaits all!
Is the boat safe?
Yes, the Bateau Fantôme is a certified passenger vessel, operated by a Transport Canada-certified crew. She’s very stable, offering smooth, pleasant sailing. The entire perimeter is secured by a railing, and although life jackets are on board, you don’t have to wear them. So you can enjoy your adventure in peace… even if a few ghosts lurk!
Can children come in disguise?
Of course it is! How could a Ghost Ship deny boarding to little ghosts, pirates or treasure hunters? Come in costume and get ready for adventure… but be warned, if your disguise is too realistic, we might just keep you on board forever!
Is food allowed on board?
Of course they do! Even ghosts nibble from time to time. You’re welcome to bring a little snack on board, but there’s no need to bring all your picnic paraphernalia… Our prankster spirits might steal it all!
Is there a bar service on board?
Yes! aboard the Bateau Fantôme, you’ll find a bar offering a selection of beverages, including beers, coolers and non-alcoholic refreshments. Something to toast to… with or without ghosts!
See the menu.
Are there toilets on board?
Yes, there are toilets on board.
What happens if it rains?
If it looks like bad weather is on the way, show up for your adventure anyway. The Captain will monitor the situation and decide whether or not to cancel your departure. Quebec is notorious for its fickle weather, but often the skies clear just in time. Ghosts hate to disappoint, so we do our best to ensure the adventure, even in light rain, as long as it’s safe. Prepare accordingly!
