Cheap Montreal Vacations
Your Montreal vacation
If you want a bargain Canadian getaway, Montreal is the place. Summit Park is a no-brainer, with access to some of the best views in the city. The Cemetery Circuit may sound macabre, but is actually anything but. For a break from nature on your Montreal vacation, head to the many art galleries and museums, like the Museum of Contemporary Art where admission is free on Wednesday evenings.
But there's more to Montreal than culture and the great outdoors. With its fondness for the risqué and love of subculture, it is also Canada's answer to San Francisco, New Orleans and New York City. And with CheapTickets, you can soak it all up on a budget.
