Things To Do in Montreal

Outside of Paris, Montreal is the largest French-speaking city in the world, which is highly reflected by the culture of the city. Named by Monocle Magazine as "Canada's Cultural Capital," there is no shortage of things to do in Montreal. The downtown area is particularly noted for the vibrancy provided by its many festivals.

Sports lovers can get their hockey fix by attending local games featuring the city's ice hockey team, the Montreal Canadiens.

The Montreal city limits include over 50 National Historic Sites of Canada, and many of these old buildings remain in their original forum. Whether you're visiting the city as a tourist or on business, Old Montreal is a must see destination. Featuring 19th century architecture, cobbled streets and rides on horse drawn carriages, Old Montreal is one of the most enthralling attractions in Montreal - no matter what time of year you visit.

Obtain a map of Old Montreal and familiarize yourself with the city, if you want to discover the city on your own. Alternatively, you can count on Expedia for offering you access to tours to suit your tour taste. On of the top Montreal excursions is a tour of the city's churches. Even though it's commonly referred to as the City of a Hundred Steeples, Montreal has far more than 100 churches of architectural merit within its city limits. Even if you aren’t exactly an architecture or history buff, Montreal tours of the old churches provide you with an excellent way to spend a few hours while during your visit.
