It's a great town. I took a cruise out of New York a few years back that went up the East Coast and we finished there in Montreal. It's a walking town, you really don't need a cab, just start walking, and there are plenty of places too eat and things to do. If you get a chance, take a side trip over to Quebec City. The old town in the center is magical, as the original stone fortress walls are still there, and walking around inside of them around the shops is great fun...and very historical. HAve a great time....lose the eh, and you'll be fine....LOL.....
