Aahh the joys of "La Fete de Cone Orange"
So, I would go the Valleyfield Beauharnois route and avoid all those bridges and tunnels. Roads on that route are good, after early morning, traffic almost nil and now with the 30 bypass open around Sainte-Catherine-Delson he would avoid all the problem areas.
What do you think about that route?
I have been on all those roads many times and most even by bicycle (the Quebec ones).

Thinking about it, that would be the best bet. The 30 would get them nicely to the 20 and into Camping Alouette. Then get a tour bus into Montreal from the campground.

I did a quick route planner on S&T an this would only add an extra 20 mile of peaceful country driving. Something I would gladly do instead of the unknown adventure of crossing the city.

Thanks Sidney and Eric, I too plotted it on S&T and that definitely will be the way that we will go were leaning to Camping Alouette but will bring it up in next planning session. We hope to be in the Montreal area in early to mid-July are still in the process of fine tuning our Ontario visits.
Thanks

I've never taken the train before, but the ride from Saint-Jérôme to Lucien-L'Allier station is scheduled to take 85 minutes.

...that's when it's on time........
Going up to stay in St-Jerome to visit downtown/Old Montreal does not make sense, but... to each his own.
