Montreal
Oh ya,... that's why you're coming here!! Montreal is a cultural hubbub and a foodies' paradise. If you come with your kids, this city will amaze them, either with the biodome, with all it's animals and ecosystems, the planetarium, the botanical garden, or just with a horse cart ride in Old Montreal. Enjoy the cultural scene, with numerous free festivals non-stop during the whole summer, varying from jazz music, to comedy and aboriginal festival to name but a few, without forgetting Cirque du Soleil shows! Eat out and discover the world's cuisine in one city, french, italian, chinese, japanese, north african, south african, korean, indian ... name it! Go on a padle board, a surf board or a kayak on the Lachine rapids, and enjoy a picnic on mount Royal during the sunday afternoon tamtam fest. See the international fireworks competition every wednesday and saturday evenings during summer, at about 5 min walk from our house!
If you are here a little while, our house is near the main highways to Ottawa (2h30) and Quebec City (2h). Two great canadian cities worth visiting!

Ce qu'on apprécie, ce qu'on apprécie moins… Voici nos préférences et nos règles de maison.
We cannot exchange with a family that has pets, since our oldest son is allergic to cats and afraid of dogs. We don't smoke and we don't want you to smoke in our house. Since pot is now legal in Canada, we DO NOT allow any drugs in our house. Also, we are in friendly relationship with our neighbours, and would like that it remains this way, so please be mindful, so no partying or loud music.
