Amazing place to visit if you live in Montreal or just visiting. Old Montreal buildings and modern city activities make this place unique. Fancy restaurants, street food and fun things to do. Only 2 reasons why I gave it 4 stars is: No parking if you are not willing to pay a lot or find free spots. Overall prices for activities are way to expensive. Make sure to have at least 100$ per person to enjoy little things here and there.

September 2023 5* River front side of Montreal is beautiful as there are many activities. There is science centre building. You can enjoy food and local shopping. There is boat parking and ferry area. You can take public ferry to visit the places. Also, you can enjoy the wheel ride.

Must visit if you are in Montreal. Beautiful views and great places ro eat and shop. Loved walking around the old quarter. Could easily spend half a day or more exploring the area.

It’s always fun walking in the oldport streets, with the stone pavement and gift shops, all the restaurants and bars, street painters, locals and tourists who enjoy the neighborhood and street shows, music, dancing, and all fun stuff. You feel like you’re on vacation for a couple of hours.

I am a Montrealer. The path from my home to Old Port of Montreal is one of my favourite walking routes. Around the old port, throughout the year, no matter day or night, sunny or foggy, there are always beautiful natural hotspots and European-style urban street views to enjoy.

The port is really nice for a walk and sightseeing. There is a lot of activities for kids like the giant ferrous wheel, small train, pedal boat etc. The streets are really nice and European looking. Parking is a bit of trouble. There are a lot of restaurants where during the lunchtime can be really busy. You can find Middle Eastern, French, Italian and American speciality places here.

I loved this place. I visited here before summer start and during summer. I will recommend to to visit in summer. Lots of activities here with ticket(expenssive). You can enjoy street shopping as well. I brought one beautiful ring. Currently one cirque show available namely KOOZA. Hope you help this review. Enjoy your day.

A must go if yoj are visiting Montréal. It resembles a historic European vibe and whole atmosphere is extremely touristic, loved it so much. So much eye catching photo spots, the streets and building are vintage. There is also a lot happening randomly, street performers are always doing something. Walk walk and walk, you are bound to love this whole place.

Excellent place to walk around with so much to see and do. The ferris wheel will give you the perfect view of the area. There is food trucks right along the water and some neat sea can shops. This is a great area to walk around as old Montreal is right there.

Best place for all kinds of activities, the ferris wheel spun us 3 times, it's heated, roomy and you can't feel a thing, so fun. The bathrooms are so clean and very modern, lots of stalls and sinks. Skating is great, fun music, heated area to lock your stuff while skating around. Great experience overall.

Nice skating rink in the winter. Crowded but beautiful at night. More expensive than we are use to (we don’t normally pay to skate as we have free options back at home) but it was worth it for this one time experience. I would do again and I would recommend it if you are looking for a unqiue winter experience in a city.

A very interesting place to visit. Enjoyed shopping along the way. Rode the huge Ferris wheel for superb sites of their surrounding area.

Great stroll in a beautiful city on a sunny day. Fall's crispy air, beautiful views and historic surroundings were a perfect combination for an easygoing afternoon. We enjoyed the art stands, souvenir shops and scrumptious food.

A very beautiful and lively place for a walk. Several souvenir shops and establishments to suit any taste. You can take a ride on the Ferris wheel and there's an adventure park with ropes. Near the Ferris wheel, there's a catamaran rental as well.

The Old Montreal Port is a captivating blend of history, culture, and charm. From cobblestone streets to stunning waterfront views, this area offers a delightful experience for visitors of all ages. The architecture alone is worth the visit, with beautifully preserved buildings dating back centuries. Walking along the cobblestone streets feels like stepping back in time, with each corner revealing new wonders to explore. The waterfront promenade is a highlight, offering picturesque views of the St. Lawrence River and the iconic clock tower. Whether you're strolling, biking, or simply sitting and soaking in the scenery, it's impossible not to be mesmerized by the beauty of the surroundings. The Old Montreal Port is also home to a variety of attractions, including museums, galleries, restaurants, and shops. Whether you're interested in history, art, or cuisine, there's something here for everyone to enjoy. Overall, a visit to the Old Montreal Port is a must for anyone exploring the city. It's a place where history comes alive, and every corner tells a story. Don't miss the opportunity to experience this charming and historic gem.

A must visit place to enjoy your day with family and friends. It has beautiful view of the river, a ferris wheel 🎡, market to shop around. You can take water taxis from here to go around the city. I recommend this place.

Montreal tourist attraction that native Montrealers love to revisit. Lots of activities on offer and right next to Old Montreal.

Its a nice place to walk around with your loved one(s). A bit crowded in places with tons of photo opportunities. If you're craving a snack while walking around you're in luck as you can find almost anything from ice cream to cotton candy. There is plenty of parking on the water for $25. The restaurants by the water have a great ambiance created by the DJ.

Must visit this place in summer if you are in Montreal.Attractions include Board walk with shops, food trucks, paddle boats, zip lining, high and low ropes course experience(tickets are available on the spot and line ups are not crazy long usually. Public parking lots are located nearby and charge max $25-$20 per day but you won’t regret it after you explore the place. The parking is cheaper in the inside streets parking lots. After exploring the old port attractions, go across the road walk around. There are more shops in the nearby allies that you don’t wanna miss.There are self-cleaning washrooms located near the old port area that look like an elevator. The washroom are free and get sanitized automatically after each use.

Love this place. Love to take a walk there specially on fridays and saturdays. Filled with lights and colors!!

Great place to go for a walk and see people. I love the historic buildings and the amazing bistros. Always good vibes and happy people enjoying life.

Took sky wheel rode and its beautiful view from the top. 4 rounds it goes and its very slow so no need to worry if you are frightened about the hight. Must go and enjoy the view

Great experience walking path of old town seeing historical buildings and local life. I wish the weather was better, but it was ok we took it anyway. A bit chilly next to the water with seagull's frying around only think we concern was we don't want to get bird bomb :D I got tons of picture and its worth walking.

Looking for a nice place to hang out after work or a small picnic spot? Old port is the perfect place! It's a pretty scenic place with lots of fun activities to do like zip lining and the Ferris wheel. You have the churros, the ice cream, the popcorn and many other stuff to try.. the local markets have some unique things to buy! came with my friend here and we spent almost an entire day enjoying this place!

Stunning views of the La grande rue du Montreal, you can walk alongside the dock and buy cute souvenirs, ziplining, paddleboating etc. Take a stop by the food trucks for awesome poutine!

The Old Port of Montreal, known as Vieux Port, is a must-visit destination. It offers a charming atmosphere, historic landmarks, and a range of activities. You can enjoy leisurely walks, boat tours, and delicious food. It's easily accessible and hosts festivals and events throughout the year. Overall, it's a captivating place with something for everyone.

Good place for boat escapades, grande roue, food trucks, cirque du soleil, zip line, TELUS imax, walking on the boardwalk.. Great restaurants in Old Port like Terrasse William Grey or Bordel, or you can dine at a more resonable price in any restaurants situated in place, Jacques Cartier. (Allow at least 2 hours of commute or restaurants dining on fireworks nights) There are also bike paths, pédaleau & bike rentals, and lots of souvenir shops... My only critique would be the traffic and especially the expensive parking!!! 35$ is wayyyyyy too expensive, especially when you spend 140$ on bateau-mouche experience for 1 person dinner ... Lastly, like always, there are constructions everywhere 🚧 🙄 😒 ... Montréal is like that, and I believe it refrains from tourists from visiting us or from having a good experience !

It's not difficult to see why the Vieux-Port or the Old Port of Montreal is a crowd favorite. It's one of the most successful conversion of what was an industrial waterfront into a playground for all. Visit at any time of the year for guaranteed fun. The views towards the city are spectacular, especially from the port's elevated walkways. In my opinion, watching the sunset from one of them is one of the most memorable views that Montreal offers.

Visiting The Old Port of Montreal is a MUST. I suggest picking up a bite to eat and visiting close to sundown, when the views are at their best! This location is also beautifully illuminated at night! A simple walk in this area can make for a great day-trip but there are several activities available such as Zip-Lining (20$), skating, and taking a ride on the Ferris-wheel (20-25$) which can potentially make this trip a little pricey! Finding parking on the street can also be a challenge so expect to pay around 20-25$!

It is a good place to roam around. A lot of free space and chilly enjoying weather will give you comfort.

Although the tourism industry is suffering a great deal during this Pandemic, the locals are appreciating these unusual moments of calm. The wintery colorful scene shines through without distraction. This is such a rare moment...take it in before things get back to normal.

I love the old port. It's by far the most beautiful neighborhood in Montreal. It has the some of the best restaurants, cafés, and bars in the city...and even the country. Lots of activities, and things to do, both for tourists and locals! I've lived in the area for over 6 years and I never get tired of walking around and enjoying the sites and beautiful architecture. 💕

We love visiting the Old Port. Even when it's off season, and not the tourist trap it's meant to be :) Great space for a waterfront stroll!

Great Scenery😍🇨🇦 Awesome place to visit at any season💞🇨🇦

Beautiful place to visit if you are in Montreal! The boulevard is such a nice place where you will find lots of craft and art, souvenirs stores and restaurants too.

Although most everything is closed it's a nice activity just to walk outside. The big wheel is open so there's something to do there.

It's a nice place to walk around in the summer's as it has small park nearby and good sight to chill out, and many even places to eat nearby. And some activities to do as well, when it is open. Not to go now due to covid , as everything is closed.

Soothing place for jogging. Tho it might get a bit chilly during Winter.

Very nice need to fix the roads tho.

La pandémie fait qu'avec les règles sanitaires c'est pas comme avant , moins de gens qui se ballade aux Vieux Montréal . J'en ai profité pour un tour de la Grande Roue Pas de file d'attente , une incroyable vue sur la ville ! La propreté des toilettes en vallait le prix étant Iliostomiser , dans ces temps ci Il est rare de pouvoir utiliser les toilettes dans plusieurs lieux "pandémie" J'ai quand même profité de la journée pour me promener dans le Vieux Manque de banc pour s'asseoir pour une pause du au Covid19 Le meilleur s'en vient " j'espère" SANTÉ à tous et merci au personnels.du Vieux Port

Ok

Must see place in Montreal but be careful not to enter with a car if there’s fireworks activity. You will pull all your hair off :))

Everything clean, nice view of port, and it's showed history of Montreal!

Beautiful and Historic area of Montreal.

Night visit is highly recommended !

The heart of historic Montreal, and the most old world European part of the city. Lovely for walking around or getting together with friends (even with masks if need be).

A UNIQUE place - the historic enter to the city of Montreal -FANTASTIC

(Translated by Google) I saw the guy from YouTube, Tai-Chi International doing his exercises there 🙂 (Original) J'ai vu la gars de YouTube, Tai-Chi International faire ses exercices la bas 🙂

Old port area is welcoming and refreshing. Good place for strolls and walks. Most food trucks were closed but juice shop, churros, ice cream parlor were open. There is a bridge going to the river view as well. There is a Zipline option for enthusiasts and a La Grande wheel giving a view of the city around it. Staff was friendly. Covid protocols were followed including checking the vaccination passport/IDs. There are small shops as well for jewelry, tshirts, Heena tattoos. Next to the area is the food lovers hotspot with plenty of options to choose from.

Looks beautiful at night, specially for a walk. Ferris wheel was nice touristy thing to do. Given the covid situation, people have been managing things so well!

I didn't know this place exists but I remember I think I lost my way the first time I tried to find this place then I overlooked on it to visit this place until my friend who is a local insisted to go. No regrets. I was here in Sept 2019. Wow guys! This place looks extremely boundless. Especially that view of the St.Lawrence River. Most of the stalls are already closed. I casually walked around here and took pictures of this view of the Le Grand Roue de Montreal observation wheel and the river while observing people in this cool fresh air.

A great way to spend the day! Cobblestone streets, plenty of shops to browse for treats, souvenirs or essentials (umbrella, sweater, maple syrop - yes that’s an essential!). Ride above everyone on a zip line for $20. Cross the walking bridge to the big wheel aka La grande Roue ($70 for a family of 4) or rent a paddle boat. Otherwise you can simply grab a cold drink, put on your sun glasses and check out the vendors along the waterfront!

Very beautiful and peaceful. Food was also good.

Went onto the Ferris-wheel, super nice pictures and videos from the top! Since I was such a beautiful day(Sept. 25), the scenery was amazing and The Port was buzzing with people. Loved the atmosphere and the small shops. Will gladly come back to Montreal just for the views

My absolute favourite area of Montreal! The architecture is incredible, feels like you’re actually in Europe. So many cute cafes, restaurants, shops and art galleries. Love the pedestrian streets for casual strolling. Beautiful riverfront with views of the fast-moving St Lawrence river.

My first visit to Montreal and had a very nice time. So many fun things to do. A mini train ride for the kids.Zipline was awesome. Clock tower and La Grande Roue was beautiful! Clock tower park has a few picnic tables and is perfect for a picnic with a view of the port!

I love this place to enjoy my off time. I recommend any new comer to Montreal should visit this place to have some beautiful moments. Please enjoyed your lovely time. 😍🤩

I had a chance visiting this place in winters , we did a walk in -9 and let me tell you it was worth spending time in cold weather , this place looks amazing at night with an amazing views

It was my first time in this area. We were attending a protest and it was the perfect venue for the event. I'm looking forward to visiting this area in summertime as a tourist rather than a protestor.

Awesome place to visit in Montreal. Lovely staff and good service. Ice skating Rink also there to enjoy. Cafeteria too available to have some good coffee and quickies.

Beautiful! I was there at night time! The skating rink got smaller throughout the years! Nevertheless, it was a beautiful experience, there was music playing, beautiful lighting and happy people enjoying eachother. It felt really safe.

We took a trip on the Wheel and had a great view of the area. We will be back in summer!

Interesting part of Montreal. It has an old world feel. Not nearly as interesting as Old Quebec City, but still worth a day trip.

Pretty and historic. A nice spot to walk around in any season.

Great experience. Ice skating is great. Didn't try the ice fishing but in sure that's awesome.

Beautiful views of Montreal. Walk along the boardwalk and shop at the variety of stalls, or paddle boat around to see the sites from a different perspective! Lovely!

I loved my experience here. Lovely views to see of Montreal from up the Ferris wheel. Also a nice place to get some souvenirs.

It was a good decision to park here and roam around the town in the evening. $25 for 12 hrs parking. Expect long waiting time during weekends and public holidays.

I love it! Its so creepy place but artistic and calm though. I didnt afraid of being in there and i could so great photographs. So i recommend to people to visit Vieux-Pprt de Montreal who likes to capture nice shoots. Bonjour to Montreal !

Came here on the Canada Day weekend, and the Montreal Jazz Festival just kicked off. Tons of people, attractions. Lots of cars and people so prepare to be in an electric atmosphere. Parking is going to be rough.

Great place to visit. A lot of restaurants and activities like the zip line, LA Roue..the water and etc..

We were there on Tuesday afternoon. It was busy but not packed. There were people from all over and it was a very nice atmosphere.

The cruise we choose wasn t so great.. Choose carefully where to spend your money

Always a great place to visit for tourists a d native Montreal people. So many things to do and see. Was there for food festival but many other things also

Definitely a nice place to walk around with the family if you've never been here before. Lots of activities going on during the summer.

It's one of those places which offers everyone something. There are rides, zip lines and boating. Then there are most romantic decorations around the street. So many food options. Live performances. And the list goes on. We went as a family and everyone came back with smile on face.

An iconic part of town, a must visit if you are coming to Montreal, we didn't eat during visit but expect same quality and pricing for any downtown restaurants, many restaurantshave their menus outside to make it easy, both English and French. Recommend you plan your visit there things for both kids and adults. The sky wheel adds an extra view of the town but at 30$ adults can be much. Parking in the area is moderate about 22$ for all day. Great shops and walking path to get that perfect euro style pictures. A gem away from euro and a piece of Canadian french heritage. There are other things to do in Montréal this is just one of the many things you can do. Enjoy.

A must to visit, can spend hours here. Has so much to see and do and taste and shop. Love the set up never a dull moment. Can see an. Attraction have pizza or shop the markets, try a smootie or walk to the clock tower.

We’ve to old port at all seasons. They always have something. Either it’s a New Years celebration with ice skating or AfroMonde in the summer. Great places to just walk around and take pictures of Montreal while checking out the boats and St. Lawrence river.

A must visit place for out of town visitors, great time to spend, there's lots to do for both adults and kids. Has a great board walk, small shops, kids play area, bicycle rentals and lanes to ride on. Some of the pictures are from areas nearby

Enjoyed a walk along the Vieux-Port (Old Port) de Montréal riverfront during a visit to Montréal in early May 2023. A lively area with green space, a trail/promenade and activities both locals and tourists to enjoy. There are many historical landmarks along the riverfront. Great area to people watch and take views of St. Lawrence River.

I love coming to the Old Port. There is always something to do. What I hate is big crowds. Guess what? Best time to come to Old Port is when it's raining. I visit the Old Port Tower. It's a must do. If you are not afraid of heights, do it!!

Great dinner on navigating the Saint Laurent. Is an activity for all family, you will take Fantastic Pictures and enjoy an excellent food. It will take a total of 3.5 to 4 hours of fin !!! Super Recommended .

It is a nice port , and waterfront area, we got out early in the morning and that's when we were able to capture these pictures. Later in the day it is extremely busy. Lots of people, many on bikes so at times it was a bit chaotic trying to maneuver around all the walkways and roads when walking around the old Montreal area. I was surprised that most of the roads are open to vehicles which made it hectic when you weren't sure when to cross in the old historic areas.

One of the best tourist attraction in Montreal and a must visit for any tourist and even for the local. A historical site filled with activities such as the Zipline, SOS labyrinth, the giant Ferris Wheel, the Cirque du Soleil, the Montreal Science Centre, tons of local shops and more. The Notre-Dame Basilica is quite impressive with its magnificent stained glasses and Gothic look. It's worth a walk even during winter with its public skating rink. It's the best location for an amazing view during the International des Feux Loto-Québec. The place is literally filled with amazing coffee shops and unforgivable fine dining restaurants. Bottom line, the Montreal's Old Port is majestic, historical, festive and cheerful.

So much to do here!! Every weekend there was a festival. Bring the family out and your visiting family members they'll enjoy it. We did.

Visited this place on a rainy day. A lovely place with a number of food options and activities around. Rode the La Grande Roue de Montréal, which is the highest observation wheel in Canada. It is a 20 minute ride and costs 30CAD for one adult. Overall a lovely experience.

Not just for tourists but for Montrealers alike. so much to do and see. From the Marina to all the wonderful restaurants and the many roof top terrace not to mention the ferris wheel. Wonderful place to come with the family morning afternoon evening at night.

Nice place for a walk. DO NOT BRING YOUR CAR. It is crowded. Parking is 35 dollars minimum. There are plenty of restaurants, terrases, museums, art galleries, etc. Make sure you bring comfortable shoes.

Went in Vieux-Port de Montréal with friends. Near midnight we tried the grande-roue. View is amazing, a little pricey for a $30+ ticket. Well, everything is pricey today. It is what it is. For newcomers, worth the price. For people living around Montréal, it's okay I guess, but not worth it if you already tried.

Enjoyed this place. There are a lot of activities in this area. You can do zip lining, you can participate in a treasure hunt activity, etc. There's also quite a few food trucks that serve a wide range of food, deserts, and drinks. The view is magnificent and breathtaking.

Beautiful place with plenty of things to see and do. Lots of food and souvenirs to buy. Really clean and pretty.

Such an amazing and fun city. So happy to live here. Always something great going on

Rue Saint Paul, This place was the most exciting part of the tour. The European atmosphere, historical and vintage structures, art galleries, markets, food joints, patios and so much stuff to look around. Loved hanging around this place. The Port Vieux was also the best to hang around in the evenings. Old Montreal is the best tourist spot.

Lovely port. Great area to take a walk or maybe even picnic. There's tons of seats everywhere and a few public restrooms.

Beautiful architecture you feel like your in Europe the best part of Montreal. Very unique shops, Cafe and restaurants. We take the ferry boat ⛴ from Boucherville to old Port 30 min no parking No traffic yeahhh and only available in the summers has other destinations also.

Beautiful place for a walk and photography. There are many food options nearby especially during the summer. The cityscape from the large wheel looks amazing!
