Sink your teeth into your new city! Each Bitesize MTL excursion will give you a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the flavor of Montreal, enjoying local specialities while exploring the city. Join us this year for the first ever Winter Bitesize excursions - Bitesize Underground! - where you will learn to navigate Montreal's famous "Underground City" ie "Réso," a network of tunnels and passageways that snakes around more than 20 miles of the downtown core. Saturday, January 6th: The first day's tour will focus on the Western section of the Underground City, including areas such as Cours Mont-Royal, Carrefour Industrielle Alliance, Place Montreal Trust, the Eaton Center, Complexe Les Ailes, Place Ville-Marie, Gare Centrale, Place Bonaventure, Le 1000, Place du Canada, Gare Windsor, and the Bell Center. (The group will take one subway ride - to get back to campus.) Sunday, January 7th: The second day's tour will focus on the Eastern Section of the Underground City, including areas such as Place des Arts, Complexe Desjardins, Complexe Guy-Favreau, Palais des Congrès, Centre de Commerce Mondial, Place Victoria, and Le 700/BCN. (The group will take two subway rides - there and back.) Both days' tours depart from the front entrance of the Bronfman Building (Desautels Faculty of Management, 1001 Sherbrooke Street West), promptly at 10am. The group will not wait for late arrivals, so plan to arrive early. |
