Did you know that St-Joseph’s Oratory is Canada’s largest church? Once you’ve climbed its outdoor steps pretending your Rocky Montana, whizzed your way through the Oratory’s beautiful inside, visited its in-house museum, and maybe even lit a candle for a loved one… Go up to its observatory and inhale its exceptional view of Montreal. Located on the Mont-Royal’s Westmount summit, it’s one of the city’s best views.

15. Drive up the Mont-Royal and gaze at the city’s night lights

The Mont-Royal is a darling among Montrealers for so many reasons. One of those reasons is it’s lookout East facing lookout point, a popular drive-in spot. You’ll get a view of the East side of the city, with the Olympic Stadium, downtown high rises, and the Main. It’s easy access nature and proximity to the Plateau make it a great quick sight seeing pit stop.

14.  Visit Montreal’s new interactive “view” at the top of Place Ville-Marie!

This won’t be like any other summit view you’ve taken in before. The interactive exhibit is hosted on 55 tablets categorized by 11 Montreal specific themes (iconic locations, culture, history, etc). Each visitor will be given a bracelet on which they can register their preferences, and then complete a series of challenges, all within an of exhibit of Montreal, tailored specifically to their tastes! On the 46th floor of Place Ville Marie, and connected to a brand new Les Enfants Terribles restaurant (with all season terrasses!), this new addition to Montreal’s best sights to see is well worth the 19$. Visit here.

13. Find out what the Lachine Canal is all about

Montreal’s Lachine Canal is lined with a long bike path, old trees, historic buildings, the occasional street art, and swivels its way through multiple neighbourhoods. Locals love to picnic along its patches of grass, ride their bike in its presence, or take a stroll there as the sun sets. Join them by renting a bike at Ma Byciclette or take a jog from your hotel to get a genuine local experience. Visiting the Atwater market is another excellent way to gaze out at the Canal: fresh food vendors, a seasonal outdoor “food court” and the best ice cream in town are there to fill you up right before your Lachine Canal walking adventure. Fun fact: the Lachine Canal got its name from pioneers who thought it would lead them directly to China!

12. People watch in the Plateau and Mile End

Tiny glasses and oversize tops. Accessories from thei grandmother’s basement. Tattoos that put your local mechanic to shame. The Plateau and Mile End are known as the city’s hippest, trendiest, prettiest neighbourhoods, full of people with a story to tell. Grab yourself a cup of equally hip joe and walk around in all your people watching glory.

11. Go see the International Firework competition

There are a few eateries in Montreal that are just so damn good that locals and tourists will wait outside, rain or shine, to snag a bite. There are three notable ones: Schwartz on St-Laurent (afternoons generally have the longest lineup), Beauty’s Luncheonette (the best brunch spot in town), and La Banquise at 3am after the bars close (poutine party 24/7). Come observe hungry creatures go to any lengths for delicious Montreal fare, or join em and line up.. you’ll have earned it!

5. Soak up history in the Old Port

Despite the fact that it’s Montreal’s most historic district, the Old Port’s philosophy is that “life is a party.” Skating, Igloo Fest, IMAX, and tons of other activities make it one of the city’s most entertaining attractions. But let’s not forget: gazing out at the water, watching the boats and ships, looking up at historic big stone buildings, make it one of Montreal’s most satisfying and important sights to see. Meander the cobblestone streets all day, and you’ll find something new (and something old) around every corner!

4. Soak-up the sun at the Parc Jean-Drapeau beach

10561010_1458494411077283_258184113_n

Summer months at Parc Jean-Drapeau are for beaching around. Five minutes from downtown, its your easy access ticket to golden sands and clear water. For more info, visit the Parc Jean-Drapeau website.

3. Go see a show at the outdoor Montreal Jazz Festival

Nothing represents Montreal more than the Old Port. Mixed with modern and ancient architecture, walk along it cobblestone paths, gaze at the waterside view, or better yet go rent a pair of skates and stretch out your legs. Open all week, musical evenings start at 6pm! 

1. Drink up at Terrasses Bonsecours

10408105_730431993673313_2872287149531975636_n

New Tour: Quebec City Food Tours/Visites Gourmandes de Québec!

We are officially launching a new tour: Quebec City Food Tours!

By Kimberly Handfield

We are so excited to finally enable travelers to discover the unbeaten path of St-Roch; a trendy neighborhood in Quebec City. This was a big endeavor for both Frédérik Nissen and Ismael Ulvik, the Co-Founders of company. It took about 9 months to research, create and finally launch. “This was an amazing project,” they stated, “and we are grateful that we can show off some of Quebec’s local artisans, unique flavors and gastronomy”.

The tour is 3 hours long and makes a total of five stops to enjoy various food and drink creations. You begin at the famous microbrewery La Barberie, to enjoy a home-made pea soup and two different artisanal beers. Next, you visit Camellia Sinensis Tea Shop to taste two different type of seasonal teas paired with some home-grown cheese. After, you make your way to the popular restaurant Le Cercle to enjoy a deliciously healthy beet, goat cheese, and balsamic vinegar salad. Then, you go to Le Cloché Penché to taste an artfully presented dish of vaiselle cheese, linguee and duck, along with a small glass of imported wine. Lastly, you make your way over to Le Pied Bleu to taste various chacuteries along with some local apple cider. All the while during the tour you also get a lesson about the history and cultural identity of Quebec City, and what lies in the road less traveled.

local montreal tours

This is it!

After almost a year of brainstorms, meetings and back and forth decisions, we finally succeed in launching our new website. We would like to thank every person who made that project work. Starting with:

 

  • Alexandre Masy  http://ahsx.eu/ – Graphics and web development. 

We met Alexandre in a walking tour and he said that our website looked like shit. Next thing we knew, we were working with him.

 

  • Gabrielle Matte http://gabriellematte.ca/ – Design. 

Gabrielle is a friend we met during a humour festival. She is pretty cool and likes to design stuff. Highly recommend her!

 

  • Annie Ngo – Back End and Front end development.

Graphic finish up. We highly recommend Annie’s work. She is awesome and works extremely well. We hope to work with here our entire life!

 

  • Justin Doucet – Copy Writing.

Justin speaks and writes perfect french and english. He works in our co-working studio as well. We work with him every week!
