The seaplane had taken off from Tadoussac, on the north shore of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence - located about 270km (167 miles) north east of Quebec City - on Sunday evening (local time).
An Air Saguenay official said the flight was supposed to last 20 minutes and flying conditions at the time were "excellent".
However, crash investigators have been hindered by bad weather and the inaccessible terrain.
Le Journal de Quebec reported that the plane crashed into a mountainside 20km (12 miles) from Tadoussac, where the tourists were staying.
The newspaper also reported the Britons might have rented a car with an Ontario number plate to drive to the region.
The Quebec Coroner's Office said it would carry out further investigations into the deaths in the coming weeks and its findings would be published in a report in the coming months.
UK Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond offered his condolences, saying: "This terrible incident has taken the lives of all on board, including four British nationals.
"My thoughts and sympathy are with their family and friends at this difficult time."
The UK's High Commission in Ottawa is in close contact with the Canadian authorities and consular assistance is being provided to the relatives of those killed, he added.
