testimonial Hi montreal nightlife, We had an awesome weekend! So glad I found you on the internet. We would have been clueless otherwise. Even the "older" kids in the group had a great time. All of your suggestions were perfect and everyone had a blast. Next time we're staying longer--the trip was definitely too short! And we were a little tired on the ride home considering we didn't get in on Sunday morning until 5:00 am and had to be at the bus station at 9:30 am. Montreal does not sleep and they know how to party! Thanks for all of your help. It was well worth it! testimonial end
