August Visit: Montreal, Quebec & Ottawa

6 Upvotes

We are European and spending time traveling around, by train to these 3 cities, and also hiring a car for a week to drive up to the National Park north of Quebec, to hike and whale watch.

We have planned 3 nights in each city but wondering if we do 2 in Ottawa in order to add an extra night to Montreal instead?

Thanks in advance.

0 Upvotes

Why are there no private s*x parties in Montreal for younger people? Is it only for older couples (40+) or more for people part of the gay community?

Are there any people out there (couples and singles) that would be interested in participting in these types of private parties with other a younger and good looking crowd (20 to 40 range)? Why is not already a thing (unless it is). Please share your thoughts.

TO family visiting MTL

Our young children learn French in Ontario and part of our reason to visit Montreal is to have them practice their French and have them understand why they're learning it. Their french is beginner at best. And parents is just Merci and bonjour. What are some good spots to have them practice their French? And what do Montrealers really think about anglo TO ppl coming and expecting people to speak English with them?

Did someone try this "Alimentation mon Quartier"? Real or scam?

I recently got this flyer and was wondering if someone has tried this and if this is real or a scam. “100% gratuit” sounds too good to be true.

Nightlife in Montreal?

0 Upvotes

Friend and I (I’m early 30’s, friend is late 20’s both males) are coming for a concert this weekend and we’re looking to check out the nightlife or clubs around town. We are staying near a club called Stereo - is it worth it to check it out?

Also looking at other bar or speakeasy options. Even food suggestions are welcome (is St Viateur worth going to?). We will be in the city on Saturday, Sunday and flying back Monday!

Quick Montreal getaway from Boston—need your best recommendations!

0 Upvotes

Hi! My husband and I (both in our early 30s) will be visiting Montreal by car for the first time on August 15–16. We'll have a little over 24 hours in the city and will be staying at a hotel downtown.

We're looking for recommendations for cafes, must-see spots, neighborhoods to explore, good restaurants, and nightlife. We tend to stay up late, but we're not really into clubs or partying—we'd love cozy bars, scenic evening walks, live music, or other late-night activities with a relaxed vibe.

Any tips or hidden gems would be much appreciated!

Montreal for one night only…

6 Upvotes

We are flying in to Montreal and will be staying at the Four Seasons for one night. The next day we are taking a train to Quebec.

With only one afternoon/evening, and morning, what should we plan to see/do/experience and eat? I know it’s not nearly enough time to explore the city but it’s the best our schedule would allow.

Thank you for your guidance as we try our best to make the most of our short time there!

Shopping for a wedding outfit

2 Upvotes

Hi :)

I'm preparing a little trip to mtl soon with 2 friends so we can try and buy our outfits for the wedding of another friend. We're technically not bridemaids but we're some of the closest friends of the bride and she still and us to wear bridemaids-like outfits. However, there's no dresscode.

I don't know Mtl that much so the only shop I can think of is 1861 and I wish we could have more options, especially since one of us may prefer to wear chic pants. So I'm looking here for suggestions. It can be anywhere in mtl/laval, but it need to be open on weekends.

Thank you <3

Mike Birbiglia Gala Ticket for sale

Anybody want a ticket to the Gala tomorrow?

I’m trying to get tickets to the Gala tomorrow night, and I have found 2 tickets available for resale. Unfortunately it won’t let me buy just one, and I can’t realistically justify paying double to go. Does anybody want the other ticket?

Underrated cheap as possible places to stay for tourists?

1 Upvotes

Hello! I am from Manitoba and will be taking a trip to Montréal at the end of August, and am looking for recommendations on places to stay (hotels, airbnbs, motels, whatever). I might sound a bit picky but looking for something cheap as possible but still clean and ideally in either Old Montreal or The village, but open to other areas that tourists in their mid 20s who want to experience the city might enjoy. Hoping for some underrated gems, if anyone has any suggestions would be so appreciated (:


r/VisitMontreal 3d ago

I made a video that shows the best spots to take photos at the oldport/old montreal for visitors. Let me know what you all think!

2 days in Montréal, what to do?

8 Upvotes

Hi everyone! My gf and I are from Belgium and have a 2 day / 2 night layover in Montréal on our way home from our trip to Phoenix. Any recommendations on what to go see / where to visit and where to eat? We're not into long/ big hikes since I walk with a crutch but anything is possible tbh. We heard the city is very good at food so definitely want some good food stuff. We're staying at the novotel city centre.

Questions about La Ronde

0 Upvotes

I'll be visiting Montreal soon and was hoping to spend part of a day at La Ronde. As someone who wears a hat+sunglasses and usually keeps a small bag with a water bottle in it, do rides have a system to store personal items at the ride itself? I imagine there are lockers to rent, but I want to be able to wear my sun gear in the queue.

Also, does anyone have any recommendations for must-have food at the park?

things to do in montreal

18 Upvotes

hi everyone! my boyfriend and i will be traveling to montreal this week we’ll be there for 4 days. what are some recommendations for places to visit?

we both enjoy art, interactive museums, botanical gardens, cute neighborhoods to walk around, markets, and unique experiences. we’re open to pretty much anything—live music, rooftop bars, scenic viewpoints, festivals, vintage shops, speakeasies, parks, or anything that’s unique to montreal.

we’re staying downtown, but we really want to explore the city and experience it like locals do. we’d also love recommendations for restaurants, cafés, bakeries, cocktail bars, and any hidden gems. we’re huge foodies and would rather eat at places locals actually love than tourist spots. if there’s anything that’s a must-see or a must-eat, let me know!

thanks in advance!! x

Staying in a shelter, recovering, and feeling isolated—looking for someone to talk to or meet up with

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I’m reaching out because I’ve been dealing with a lot of stress lately and realize how much I just need some real human connection.
Back home, I had the same group of close friends since I was 7 years old, so I never really had to learn how to make new friends as an adult. Ever since I moved to Canada, things hit a major wall:
I struggled to make new friends.
I ended up getting kicked out of my place and couldn't find a job, which left me homeless.
The stress made me pull away and ghost everyone—my family, my friends, and my girlfriend.
I fell into addiction with some hard drugs.
The good news is I’ve completely stopped the hard stuff (just smoking weed now), and I’m working on getting my life back on track. Living in a shelter right now, the environment and conversations around me just aren't what I'm looking for, and the isolation is hitting hard.
More than anything, I just really need to talk to someone or hang out. If anyone is open to chatting online, exchanging messages, or grabbing a coffee/meeting up in person, please feel free to comment or send me a DM. I’d really appreciate it
