After 4 nights this October in Quebec, we will be heading to Montreal for one day/night before our flight at 8 am the next morning. We have heard that the train is a nice trip form Quebec City, but it does eat up 3 hrs. Is it worth it? Scenery? The other option is flying, but we will be doing that on the first leg of our trip after arriving in Montreal (1 hr. layover).
We have been doing some reading of downtown vs. Old Town. Would we be better off staying near the airport and Ubering in to the Old Town for the day/evening? Recommendations on hotels?
