Day 1 - Montreal


Day one of this trip starts at the birthplace of the city, the Old Port of Montreal. Closer in look and feel to a Europen city than most North American cities, the Old Port area thrives. The sidewalks flow over with business people, tourists and residents. The Old Port is a great place to get a feel for the history of the city. Dinner at Bonaparte's is a treat. Most restaurants in the "Vieux - Port" are over-priced, but at Bonaparte's both the dinner and the service are worth every cent.

Day 2 - Montreal


Variety is the spice of life - and of shopping! Whether just window shopping or splurging extravagantly, the Plateau Mont- Royal has some of the most diverting crowds, restaurants and shops. The evening is spent on the infamous Crescent Street, where bars and restaurants are piled on top of each other from Rene-Levesque to Sherbrooke street. Don't stop after catching a comedy show, pull out all the stops. Put on the glitz and the high heels, and boys, leave your sneakers at home. Club 737, on top of Place Ville Marie downtown, is a fabulous night out.

Day 3 - Montreal


If you feel up to flitting around a museum after your night out - either the Musee des Beux Arts or the Contemporary Art Museum are good bets. What is even more certainly a lovely way to spend your morning is meandering across the Mount-Royal, where half the city spends Sundays in the summer. The ambience is mellow; to say the least. Santropol is an amazing place to go for lunch - plan on sharing a sandwich unless you are spectacularly ravenous. Post- lunch take a walk in the Mile-End. This is an area formerly known for its less well off artistic community, and is now a thriving neo-boho hot-spot filled with a mix of students, yuppies and families of various compositions. It has a plethora of affordable cafes, restaurants and second-hand shops to peruse for an afternoon. The evening's meal is planned at Milos. Rumour has it that certain famous individuals get flown in to Montreal just to dine here. The price is steep - but it is worth it. Many Montrealers never even see the inside of this restaurant. Make reservations. Finish off the night at Whisky Cafe on Bernard avenue. Need I say: you should try the whisky!?
