The best places to shop while in Montreal on your Canada & New England cruise

The fashion industry is booming in Montreal and offers shoppers an experience that rivals New York City or Paris. The most well-known shopping district in Montreal is rue Sainte-Catherine, which is home to many department stores. While this is a great place to start, you also don’t want to spend your whole cruise vacation frequenting places that you could have visited at home!

Here are the top five places to go shopping while  in Montreal on your Canada/New England cruise:

Avenue Laurier: This is where you’ll want to go if you’re looking for upscale shops that offer luxury goods. In addition to some of the finest brands, you’ll also be able to dine in Montreal’s best restaurants once your shopping is complete.

Boulevard St-Laurent: For more of a mix in terms of high-end stores and bargain establishments, St-Laurent is the best place to shop. On St. Hubert Street, you’ll find the unique Renaissance clothing at Dracolite Boutique Medievale.

Jean-Talon Market: You’ll find all sorts of specialty and gourmet foods in this beautiful, vibrant market.

Rue Peel: If you’re looking for men’s fashions, it’s hard to beat this terrific district in downtown Montreal.

Underground City: This network of tunnels and passageways connects 1,700 shops across 10 different malls, and like St-Laurent features a wide variety of shopping options, so no matter what you’re looking for, you’re in the right place.
