ITINERARIES & TOURS

ITINERARIES & TOURS

With two days to explore Quebec’s biggest city, follow the Old Montreal-In-A-Day on Day One, then follow Mount Royal & Downtown-In-A-Day on Day Two.

Montreal Olympic Park

If the above two itineraries don't grab you, or you have more time, then consider either heading up to Montreal Olympic Park Olympic Park, a short bus or metro ride north of the centre for its clutch of family-friendly attractions.

Neighbourhood-Hopping

Alternatively you could use the Metro to go neighbourhood-hopping on a rewarding trip to some of Montreal's less-visited spots - check out the NEIGHBOURHOODS section to discover more.

Boat & Bike Trips

If wandering neighborhoods doesn't appeal, consider a boat trip from the Old Port or rent a bike there to follow the cycle paths to Parc Jean Drapeau. Here you’ll be able to cycle on the Montreal Grand Prix course and visit the Montreal Biosphere, an environmental museum in a quirky geodesic dome, before looping back over Jacques-Cartier Bridge (superb city views). Old Port bike shops can provide rentals and free maps for this fantastic two-hour bike ride.
