“It’s a welcome sign,” tourism industry anticipates boost from return of seasonal travellers

On the cobblestone streets of Old Montreal, tourists were back in droves Sunday, taking in sights and making memories as tourist season in the city commences.

Also making a return this weekend were cruise ships. The Ocean Explorer is one of the first to anchor at the Port of Montreal since 2020. “We are calculating that this season it will bring around $20 million to the economy hotels, restaurants, taxi, museums, etc., etc,” said Gilson. Dannielle Thompson who is visiting from Atlanta for the first time, used the service to get around the city for her short trip.
