Published on September 30, 2009 – It’s hard to get a feel for the scene when you’re a tourist new to a city. The best way to get the lowdown on what’s going on, of course, is from the locals. And this summer, in an innovative new Web 2.0 strategy, Tourisme Montréal has started bringing you their locals … virtually!
Before packing your bags for a Montréal visit, you can get the scoop on where to party, dine, get your culture fix, go gay, and, for the girls, find a few extra frills, from a 5-strong brigade of talented bloggers known as the Montréal Insiders.
They’re passionate about Montréal, they’re curious, they’re cultivated and they’re connected. From Daviel, who’s got the pulse of Montréal’s culture, to Katerine, who scouts out the best restaurants, to Daniel, who gives you the keys to our vibrant gay scene, to Brendan, who keeps the night owl happy, to Tamy who gives girls every reason to make Montréal their next getaway, this blogging quintet makes sure you don’t miss a Montréal beat.
Be sure to check out their blogs at www.tourism-montreal.org/blogs. They’re updated three times a week with exciting and informative content, pictures, videos and more. You can also see and hear more of the Montréal Insiders on Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and YouTube. The Montréal Insiders always have their ear to the ground to make sure you always get the latest going on in Montréal!
