Montreal is officially French-speaking but don't worry. There is plenty of English spoken which makes it both accessible and exotic. It's a little less European than Quebec City but it still has a European flavor, especially in Old Montreal. It's also a city that is alive with arts, culture, and festivals and easy to get to for many in North America. Don't forget to have a Montreal bagel! Read: Solo Travel in Montreal: Food, Art & Culture.
