They changed Biosphere from pink to blue attraction during our trip without even an email to notify which made us miss out on the tower attraction. Called asking to refund the one attraction and they refused. They were caught as the attractions I had written down along with blue / pink and confirmed several times prior to trip. Shady business practices would never use. The only attraction worth doing is biodome, the rest were a rip off. Save your money and go elsewhere.

This is an option for visitors that may work for you. It did not for us as we prefer to do some research in books and on line and just find history on our own.

Biggest mistake we made in Montreal was buying the MTL Passport. First, we hoped it would save us money. But it turned out that about half the attractions listed weren’t even open (eg the modern art museum, the bateaux mouche, etc) so we barely used the card and ended up spending nearly three times as much on the card as we would have on separate tickets to the attractions. Second, we thought it would save us queueing - but we still had to queue at every attraction to convert our card into tickets. Thirdly if you lose a card, even though you’ve registered the card and have the receipt and the details, they will be no help whatsoever- we asked in one office, who directed us across town to the Vitrine office, where the woman said her boss was on holiday and she couldn’t help. So $113 completely wasted and a pointless morning traipsing around town from office to office for nothing. And lastly the registration process takes ages and doesn’t accept any phone number unless it’s Canadian (Yet this is meant for tourists)! - and yet registering doesn’t seem to achieve anything except giving them your data. All in all a massive waste of time and money. Don’t waste yours!

The building is easy to miss during the day because it is not lit like during the night or like the pictures. Once you find it everything is ok from there. Customer service is very helping with questions you may have.

I went to La Vintrine Culterelle to pick up my tourist pass and get some information about sightseeing. The gentlemen at the desk was extremely helpful. The building is located right on the corner. It's difficult to realize that when you're walking.

Drove downtown through lots of road construction to find this place. (Thank Heavens for GPS!) There is no parking in the area, so I pulled over on a side street and turned on my flashers while my husband ran inside to pick up the passes. The pass offers 23 different sites to visit for a reasonable price. We arrived on Monday, and about half of the attractions were closed on Mondays. Luckily, we were staying for a couple of days, so this didn't affect us. All of that aside, the pass was great. We visited several of the attractions, and the pass paid for itself. One of the nicest perks was the free Metro rides. All of the attractions are close to Metro stops, so we had no trouble visiting all we wanted to. (Plus, the Metro is probably the nicest I've used - clean and easy to negotiate.) I highly recommend buying the Montreal Pass!

Went to pick up the 72 hour MTL pass from here. Unfortunately, when we tried the pass at the first metro, the chip was not working. Had to walk back to this place and get another separate chip based card for public transportation. Customers could be saved of such hassles if the chip cards could be checked by the staff prior to handing over to customers. 6 of the 22 attractions listed in the brochure were closed. Sadly, the centre only informed us of a few. So we ended up travelling all the way to the Olympic Stadium and Tower only to find it closed for repairs! These guys certainly don't care a damm for their customers.

Bought the 72 Hr MTL passport online from Viator here through Tripadvisor and went to pick it up here. Super fast and about a block from the subway.
