Grungy, gritty, elegant, and romantic places are featured in this traveler's guide to the hidden and the forbidden sites in Montreal, a city whose culture blends European sensibility with modern-day panache. The best places to tango, imbibe microbrews, or savor maple syrup delights at a caban á sucre are listed, as are essential insider tidbits on boutiques, hotels, art galleries, and festivals. The revised content includes updated information, ideas for quirky sidetrips, and new places to feast on foie gras and croissants.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Not much bang for the buck.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Secret Montreal: The Unique Guide to Montreal's Secret Sites, Sounds and Taste (Secret Guides) (Paperback)
This book is _not_ for those who are seeing Montreal for the first time. It does offer a few non-touristy ideas but many secrets aren't that unusual, the organization is lazy, and it's tiny at 160pp. The Ulysses Guide for Montreal (with its extensive walking tours) was way more useful to me as a tourist.

A travel guide that's out of the ordinary,
By A Customer
This review is from: Secret Montreal: The Unique Guide to Montreal's Secret Sites, Sounds and Taste (Secret Guides) (Paperback)
I found this little guide to be really useful. As a newcomer to the city, it showed me places that I would have never found on my own. It's really the best book to get if you're visiting the city or even if you're a long time Montrealer. As a tourist, you'll see things that you wouldn't have known existed, and as a Montrealer, you'll discover new, enchanting places. This is really a gem of a book.
