easy 3D2N Montreal itinerary ⟡⋆˙
Angela Huo
Woohoo! You've clicked on my itinerary because you're looking for a hassle-free schedule with all of Montreal's must-visit attractions and iconic foods 😋😋
It is my greatest pleasure to take you through the enchanting city of Montreal—from the cobblestone streets of Vieux-Montreal to the cultural culinary exploration rampant in the city, you will discover why Montreal seamlessly blends old-world charm with modern allure.
The itinerary breakdown:
○ Day 1: Old Montreal
○ Day 2: Milton Parc, Plateau Mont-Royal, & Ville-Marie
○ Day 3: Everywhere else!
○ 💫Bonus💫 My stay recommendations
Note: A lot of establishments do not operate on Mondays and/or Tuesdays, so make sure to double check the store hours!
MTL is gorgeous during the spring/summer, I highly recommend visiting during these seasons.

Day 1 (Old Montreal)
This area will make you feel like you're in Europe without actually being in Europe—the French architecture and the aesthetic food curations make Old Montreal the BEST spot for Instagram-worthy photos 📸
