.Montreal and Quebec City (Lonely Planet City Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > Montreal
by: Eilis Quinn

March 01, 2007
A wedding in Tronno (aka Toronto), and I've been to Tronno before, so is there anything new to do close by? I know, I've seen films where the backdrop has been Montreal, and everyone says how cool it is. Let's see how cool Lonely Planet thinks it is.

Well, surprise, surprise. LP is totally convinced it's sooooo cool! So much so that I'm almost sick on the saccharine. It is, in short, over the top by a long way when you read the Intro.

But then we get into the detail. Or rather we don't. We skip over four centuries of history in as many pages - not like LP at all - and then get lost in a list of buildings, most of which seem to be churches. It seems there are a number of museums and art galleries, too, but the litany ... Read More:

City Travel Guides > Books > Montreal
by: Gregory Gallagher

This is by no means a bad guide - it has the DK's usual excellent assortment of sights, restaurants, cafes, general travel info. However, it has no map for Montreal's metro system which is a obvious defect (despite being a fairly walkable city, being there for a short time and on a budget, I inevitably ended up using the underground trains).
the restaurant guide is excellent (having happily tried several of the recommendations) and the book covers all of the main sights.
Usefully, this is a small, andtherefire portable guide
