Montreal

Travel series getting under the skin of popular holiday destinations. Today, Joe Lindsay and Emma-Louise Johnston report from Montreal, Canada, to check out a city which the Irish played a significant part in building and where over 160,000 Irish people still live today. They find a vibrant bohemian street scene, great shopping and one of the world's best sandwiches! They also take a trip to Mont Tremblant, just outside Montreal, which is best known for skiing but also is a popular summer retreat from the city. And in 'on your doorstep', we take a short getaway in Co Donegal where we head for a spa weekend.
