Travel professionnals, media, cruises

In addition to promoting the city to tour operators and incoming partner agencies, Tourisme Montréal operates as part of the Montréal Cruise Committee so as to attract new companies, increase the number of cruise ships visiting Montréal and extend their stay. Press tours, journalist receptions and participation in media fellowships are part of the broader effort to promote Montréal as a leading tourist destination.
