This Vibrant City is a Treat for the Senses.
Set on an island in the St. Lawrence River, the city is a photographer's delight. Its imposing modern skyline punctuated with skyscrapers confirms its status as one of Canada's leading contemporary, metropolitan areas. Highlights include:
- Take in nature - Montreal offers an abundance of options: the Montreal Botanical Gardens (especially the Chinese and Japanese gardens), the topical rainforest in the Montreal Biodome, Mont-Royal Park where you can relax in beautiful serenity.
- Delight the taste buds - be sure to indulge in a smoked meat sandwich during your visit.
- Be awed at the architectural wonder of the Notre-Dame Basilica of Montréal.
- Step back in time - enjoy a horse drawn carriage ride down the cobblestone streets of Old Montreal.
- Get soaked - and have a great time doing it aboard a Lachine Rapids Jet Boat Tour. You'll have a blast as you navigate the rapids of the St Lawrence River.
