USEFUL TIPS ABOUT MONTREAL What Language is spoken in Montréal French is Québec’s official language but English is widely spoken in Montréal. The city has more than 120 cultural groups and over 20% of the population speaks three languages. Banks and Currency Exchange Canadian currency is the dollar, which is divided into 100 cents. There are 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 dollar bills. One and two dollar bills have been replaced by coins, sometimes referred to as "Loonies" (the bird on the $1 is a loon) and "Toonies" ($2). There are numerous currency exchange offices for visitors to exchange money into Canadian currency. Most exchange offices are open during regular business hours (9am-6pm) and Saturday from 10am-5pm. Credit cards are also widely accepted in restaurants, stores, taxis, etc. Electricity The electric current is 110V and the plugs are the same as what is found in the US. If you come from a country that uses 220V electricity, you will need a converter for any appliances you bring that require power (computers, charges, etc.). What is the rule for tipping in Montréal Service is not included in restaurants, so it is customary to add a 15% tip to the total before taxes (if you’re with a group, 15% for service may be automatically added to your bill). Taxi drivers, hairdressers, etc. are also normally tipped 15%. Bellhops, porters, doormen, etc. generally receive at least $1 per suitcase or per service rendered. Time Zones Montréal switches to Eastern Daylight Time (summer time zone) on the second Sunday of March and returns to Eastern Standard Time (winter time zone) on the first Sunday of November. The time difference between Montréal time and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is less than 5 hours in the winter. Shopping in Montréal Most shops are open Monday to Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Thursday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. They are usually closed on legal holidays – and on January 2 in the majority of cases – but some establishments (supermarkets, SAQ outlets, etc.) may still be open. For more information, consult the Tourisme Montréal website at: Shopping in Montréal
Dining Out

Tourisme Montréal website for more information: Montréal Restaurants
Using your mobile phone
There are many wifi connections available in the city. If you do not turn off your roaming or 3g

Getting Around – From the airport in around the city
…By Metro and bus
Montréal is a very walkable and safe city. However, if you require to travel further distances,
the public transportation system is very fast and convenient. The Metro (underground subway)
typically operates between 5:30am to 1:00am. The bus route is also very extensive and could
also be an option. There is also an express bus that services the airport (747 Express Bus). A
one-way fare card, which is valid for 24 hours costs $10.00CDN. For more information on the
public transportation system, please visit www.stm.com
…by taxi
Taxis are readily available outside hotels, but it is also to simply flag one down on the street. A
trip from the airport to downtown Montréal will cost you a flat rate of $40.00.
…by bike
Montrealers are avid cyclists, and proud of it. The city has 350 kilometres of bike paths criss-
crossing its territory, including natural parks and suburbs.
Use a Bixi bike to get around. This public bike sharing system can be a great way to get around
the city. The cost of 24 hours is $5.00. Users must be careful not to use the bike for more than
30 minutes at a time to avoid being charged extra time. For more information visit their website
at www.bixi.com

ARRIVING IN MONTRÉAL
Practical Information / Airport Transportation
747 Shuttle Bus
The 747 shuttle bus service is the most cost effective and efficient way to
travel between the airport and the centre of Montréal and runs 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week. Once you leave the customs hall, follow the signs for
shuttle bus/navettes just outside the terminal.
Travel time may vary between 30 to 45 minutes, depending on traffic
conditions. Wi-Fi service is available on most 747 buses.
The fare is $10 (CDN) for unlimited travel throughout the STM bus and
metro networks during 24 consecutive hours.
The fare card can be purchased at the airport from the automated

For more information, please visit the official 747 Website.
By Taxi:
Taxi rates are fixed at C$40 to downtown, one-way, and there is always a
minimum charge of C$17. It is customary to tip the driver anywhere from
10% to 20%, with 15% being the average. Visa, MasterCard and American
Express are often, although not always, accepted; therefore it is strongly
suggested to advise the taxi dispatcher of your desired method of payment.

Château Ramezay – Historic Site and Museum of Montréal | 280 Notre-Dame Street East | Metro: Champ-de-Mars
Produced in collaboration with historian and archivist Michel Langlois, the exhibition traces the lives of officers and soldiers from the Carignan-
Salières regiment and De Tracy's troops as they set out to carve a nation. Follow them on this great human adventure that marked not only Québec’s
place names but also its patronyms and its people. Why did they come? What did they achieve? How were they equipped to face the Iroquois, not to
mention Québec’s winters? Learn the answers to these questions and find out whether you are a descendant of one of these soldiers, by consulting
our genealogical database.
