Quebec City & Montreal

We spent 4 nights at the QC KOA about 5 years ago. They have a shuttle bus that drops you off in the Old City. Really enjoyed the horse-drawn carriage ride around the city! Driver was well-versed in the sites and history of the city. At times he was hard to understand (we are not fluent in French...!), but delightful to listen to!!! ST

Consider using the Metro in Montreal and the Red Busses in Quebec City. No way would I take my 3500 Long Bed, Crew Cab into either one.

We stayed in Campgrounds on the South side of the river in both cases. Ferry across the river at Quebec and easy (but not short) drive into the Metro hub in Montreal.

If you go to the new casino in Montreal (Beautiful facility) do NOT get the truck caught in the underground parking. RV area is available.

Montreal and Q' City are wonderful places to visit. We only did a couple of days in each which met our needs of solid 8am to 10pm days walking+++. To each their own but research heavily on what you want to see and do in each location, and decide on how long YOU need based on your personality and way of travelling/touring/what interests you.

PS: As newbies at the time we made the mistake of driving our 36ft RV right down into town (think cobbled areas), and even entering into a carpark down there to finally get back out. Takes a lot to phase hubby driving this beast, but sure explained the odd looks folks were giving us within 30 secs of where we realized we shouldn't be in such a beast LOL. We don't toad so only bike/walk at our interest spots and thus far has worked well for us over many years.

DW and I planned a two week stay in Montreal last fall 2016 followed by a one week stay in Quebec. We planned our stay at the Camping Alouette RV Resort (really nice place) near Montreal and to drive into the city daily to see the sights. Driving was a BIG MISTAKE!!!

We had to fight very heavy daily commuter traffic into and out of the city as well as near gridlock traffic in the city each day. In the city it was impossible to find parking anywhere near the interesting sites and most parking meters only allowed for 1 hr (or less) parking. We ended up spending more time sitting in the pickup looking for parking than actually seeing the sights. Most Montreal drivers have compact or sub-compact cars so maneuvering my MID-SIZED Canyon (like your Tacoma) was like driving a Sherman tank down a narrow alleyway. Did I mention the pothole canyon roads? As a result, we cancelled our Quebec stay.

If you really want to see Quebec and Montreal, PARK your RV in a STORAGE site at a nearby RV park, take a taxi into the city, and rent a room at one of the many tourist motels. You can then take a tour bus to the more popular sites or just walk around near the motel.

I see you've been to N.B. and N.S. already, so you know Canada and likely the road system. In Quebec road signs are all in French only.
As for Quebec City start downtown and stay there as much as possible - it's got that old world magic which you'll love. Best restaurants in all of Canada.

We'll need good shoes as there's lots of walking. In Mtl. - it's another Big City where folks drive like there's no tomorrow. Again, try to get into the center of that city and don't forget those shoes.
Welcome to Quebec where french and english are both equal. :D
