Ιf you love to travel and have never been to Montreal, it’s time to get out and do it. Known for its amazing food and exciting nightlife, Montreal is magical in more ways than one. While there are plenty of things to do in the old city, the best way to really explore what Montreal has to offer is to get out and travel through the region on foot. Here are some of the must-do activities to get you started:

When winter falls on the town, it brings with it a different kind of magic. The winter coat of snow that covers the streets and houses is magical, as is the snow that fills the air with moisture. Travel to Old Port Montreal during the winter hockey is an option, or you can stay home and watch the Christmas parade with friends and family as the bright colors of the season fill the air.

For an exciting nightlife, head to Papagayo where the nightlife runs the full spectrum from elegant cabaret clubs to hip hop clubs and everything in between. Papagayo is one of the oldest areas in town and has a special something about it that makes it a unique travel destination. The nightlife is great and the bars and clubs (both old and new) cater to all tastes. One particular night at Papagayo that people enjoy is the “boat races” that take place in the St Honorat Water Park. Watch as the big boats come up to the water and you can’t help but stop for a moment to catch your breath. This is the best time to visit Montreal and if you are going to be away from home for an extended period of time, this is a fun way to spend your vacation.
