Montreal Travel Forum

Hi,
I am planning to go to Montreal this week. I really don't have any idea about the city. I will stay.... may be for a month there, i am in need of guidance from you people like the places to visit, accommodation and other information.

Hi there,
In a month you can see more than Montreal. Visit also Quebec city and Ottawa, and if you still have energy, go to Toronto and Niagara Falls. Anyway, here is some popular Montreal attractions as an example: Montreal Botanical Gardens (Jardin Botanique de Montreal), Notre-Dame Basilica (Basilique Notre-Dame), Old Montreal Vieux-Montreal), Mount Royal, St. Joseph's Oratory (Oratoire Saint-Joseph), Biodome de Montreal (in Olympic park, there is other stuff too). This week is the jazz festival week, so finding accomodation might be tricky.
Here is some links to city and accomodation.

Also McGill University (downtown) is giving cheap accomodation during summer time.
The tourist office is on Peel street, they are very helpful...Cheers

Hi We took a week to visit Quebec, Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto and Niagra Falls. 2 nights in Quebec and Toronto. Montreal and Ottawa are very close , approx 2 hours drive. All these cities have much to offer, we were there June 2007 and weather was good. I have just finished pages on Quebec, Montreal,and Ottawa which you are welcome to view, some good web page links for what is happening and tourist attractions. Train and bus connect all cities.

Good Luck,
Mike
