While the memory of Jeanne Mance, Jacques Cartier and de Maisonneuve can still be felt on the cobblestone streets, Old Montréal and the Old Port make up one of the city’s most constantly evolving and dynamic quarters, with attractions ranging from cathedrals and museums to an observation wheel and river cruises.

    2 hours
  • Observatoire Place Ville Marie

    Enjoy the best views of the city from the summit.

    15 minutes
  • Notre-Dame Basilica

    Growing from a humble stone church in the 17th century to a minor basilica erected to welcome some 8,000 parishioners, Notre-Dame Basilica of Montréal stands as a majestic testament to the importance of religion and art throughout the city’s history. The visit will be from the outside.

    15 minutes
  • The Underground City

    RÉSO, commonly referred to as the Underground City, is the name applied to a series of interconnected office towers, hotels, shopping centres, residential and commercial complexes, convention halls, universities and performing arts venues that form the heart of Montreal's central business district, colloquially referred to as Downtown Montreal.

    30 minutes
  • Place des Arts

    As Canada's premiere entertainment destination, the centre has six venues, including the Maison Symphonique, with a total seating capacity of nearly 8,000. Place des Arts offers an extraordinary variety of programming, hosting major arts organizations, such as the Opéra de Montréal and the Grands Ballets Canadiens.

    15 minutes
  • Old Port of Montreal

    A stone's throw from downtown, the Old Port offers something for everyone at any time of year.

    10 minutes
  • A testament to the French regime architecture, this beautiful building is home to the oldest (private) garden in North America.

    5 minutes
  • Marche Jean-talon (jean-talon Market)

    ituated in the heart of Little Italy, Jean Talon Market is one of the oldest public markets in Montréal. Inaugurated in May 1933, it was first called the Marché du Nord, but in 1983, its name was changed in honour of Jean Talon, the first intendant of New France
