5/5 - Excellent

Can walk everywhere. Must go to the Basilique Notre-Dame de Montréal, truly amazing.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveller

I don’t think Montreal really fits the hype. I wasn’t expecting skyscrapers. The old town wasn’t that big. Go to Europe and see the real thing.

4/5 - Good

ASHISH

From a leisure traveller's point its probably a nice city for one visit if interested in cultural and tourist attractions. Probably a 2-3 times if interested in visiting the theme parks, Gilles circuit or specific adventure activities.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Beautiful city with a distinctive French rhythm. We were here during the recent Canadian general election, and it was easy to see where the locals loyalties lie first.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Nice city to just walk around
