Rare KKB Posted July 26 #1 Share Posted July 26 (edited) Had a question, but figured it out! I couldn't get a decent flight to the Midwest, neither in time or price. BUT I figured out if I flew to Toronto, I could get both. Hmmmm...might just spend some time in Toronto! Edited July 26 by KKB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toronto is a nice town-- sort of the Chicago of Canada. If you do have a few extra days flying into Toronto for a night or two, taking VIA Rail to Montreal for a night, and then the quick train up to Quebec City is a ton of fun and gives you a chance to see three very different major Canadian cities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds lovely. Wondering--is it easy to get the train to Montreal from the port at Quebec City should I be unable to spend the extra time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite easy-- essentially the Gare du Palais is within walking distance of the main dock in Quebec City (15 min on mostly flat surface) or quick taxi/Uber. Multiple daily trains to Montreal running every couple hours. Do make sure to spend at least a day in Quebec City though too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are considering places to stay in Montreal take a look at the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth. Its not the least expensive (but it isn't close to the most either) but the real benefit when arriving by train is the hotel is directly on top of the train station, Gare Centrale. There is slightly hidden elevator that will take you directly to the hotel's lobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
