Essential Montréal Tips

01
Use public transport
Montréal's public transport is excellent value. Buy a day/week pass and avoid taxis.
02
Book major sights ahead
Top attractions sell out. Book online before you leave home — especially in peak season.
03
Eat where locals eat
Walk two streets away from tourist monuments for dramatically better food at half the price.
04
Learn basic phrases
A few words of greeting in the local language transform how Montréal's residents treat you.
05
Stay in neighbourhoods
Avoid hotels at the tourist centre. Staying in residential areas gives a richer experience.
06
Visit in shoulder season
April–May and September–October offer the best balance of weather and manageable crowds in Montréal.
