Montreal What to Pack

Montreal is a beautiful place to visit. However, if you fail to pack the right items, you may find yourself uncomfortable and unable to enjoy yourself fully. Here are a few tips for things that you should be sure to pack when you are planning a vacation or business trip to Montreal, Canada.

Luggage

No matter what you have planned for your Montreal adventure, these luggage options are ideal for a short or long-term stay.

Layers

In the winter, it can be cold in Montreal. In the summer, it can be hot. However, the weather can change quickly and also varies based on the time of the day, not just the season. It can be brisk on a summer morning and cool down when the sun sets. Likewise, it can be downright freezing on a winter morning and heat up a bit when the sun comes out. As such, as you pack, pack items of clothing that can be layered. This way you can easily add to or subtract from your outfit during the day as it heats up or cools down.

Sneakers

The last tip on what to pack when you are visiting Montreal is a good, comfortable pair of sneakers. You will do a lot of walking when you visit this town. As such, you want a shoe that is comfortable to walk in. Also keep in mind that the sidewalks can be icy, especially during winter. You do not want a dress shoe that does not have a reasonable amount of grip on the sole or you can slip and fall. Sneakers have a reasonable amount of traction, helping to keep you upright if you walk over a patch of ice.
