Montreal Ultimate Getaway, a rail journey with Amtrak Vacations

Amtrak Vacations offers this 5-day independent getaway to Montreal, starting and ending in the city. It includes a sightseeing city tour of Montreal and a sightseeing cruise of the St. Lawrence River and Montreal waterfront. On your own time, the evidence points to Old Montreal's cobbled streets, the cafe-lined Place Jacques Cartier, and the historic Notre Dame Basilica as things to see nearby. The included list states 3 nights' hotel accommodations against a sold length of 5 days and 4 nights, so it is worth confirming the exact count when booking. Rail travel is not included in the from-price and is booked separately. This suits independent travelers and budget-conscious visitors who want a bit more included sightseeing on a short city break.
