Anyone have advice on vacationing in montreal?

Question

I'm going to stay with my boyfriend in Montreal for 3 days in August. Has anyone ever been? I need advice! Things to do, places to see.. were there aug 11-13.

Answer 1

The Travel Channel is starting to put some of its shows on iTunes.  You could look there, or on YouTube.

I went several years ago, during the Expos' last season.  Obviously you can't go to that.  But the Jardin Botanique looked nice.  I wasn't too impressed with Chinatown, however.

90 miles North is Mont Tremblant, which I have skiied at before.  They probably have summer stuff, too.

Answer 2

Montreal has so much to offer:

Chinatown

shopping downtown on Ste-Catherine between Atwater and Berri.

Really neat shops on Mont-Royal near the metro.

St-Laurent and St-Denis street

The biodome, insectarium.

La Ronde.
