ACIS offers five options for student tours in Canada, ranging from three to five days in length. Quebec and Montreal are the primary destinations visited by ACIS student travel groups, so the focus of this tour company is definitely on Francophone culture. The three-day "Quebec City Trip" is ACIS's signature program, with itinerary highlights including a stop at Chateau Frontenac, where Franklin D. Roosevelt and Winston Churchill met to strategize about World War II, and a folkloric dancing lesson.

Jumpstreet is a 25-year-old educational travel company based in Quebec, so it's hardly surprising that Quebec and Montreal are the two destinations in which it specializes. Tours are four to five days in length, and itineraries can be customized or selected from existing packages, including Winter Carnival, Spanish Montreal, and French Quebec. The Winter Carnival Tour, available in January and February, is a pre-Lent Quebecois version of Mardi Gras; activities include attending one of the many street parades and partaking of the local winter delicacy, sugar-on-snow.
