FAQs
Montreal: Do I need to learn French before visiting Quebec and Montreal? Not necessarily. Most people in Montreal & Quebec speak both English and French. But a little “Un café, s'il vous plaît” might get you some extra brownie points!
Montreal: How much driving is on this trip? Canada’s huge. That means you’ll have some long coach journeys along the way. But it also means that you’ll have plenty of time to sit back, relax, soak in the stunning scenery and spend time with your Contiki crew.

Montreal: Carol singers, face-painting, toasty marshmallows and entire streets lined with seasonal market stalls… your Christmas cravings won’t know what satisfied ’em. Please note: The Christmas Village is only available to those travelling in December
