23 Best Things to Do in Montreal

"The Lachine Canal flows from the historic buildings of Old Montreal, past the gentrified glass condo buildings of Griffintown, and through the hipster neighborhood of St. Henri before flowing into the industrial areas of Angrignon and Lasalle. Because it cuts through so many residential neighborhoods, you'll get a real glimpse of how Montrealers spend their downtime. On warm summer days, there isn't a better place to go for a jog or walk in the city. If you have time, try Adventures H2O's water activities: kayaks, paddle boats, electric boats, or canoes. You'll find them right behind the Atwater Market, where you can stop for a snack before or after your adventure. Book ahead online." - Todd Plummer
