I arrived a few days early and enjoyed many of the Montréal food delicacies and spent days exploring the city with some excitement.
It’s fair to say, Montréal goes mad for Formula One. I I will show you some stunning street art, some incredible F1 art, introduce you to the Jean-Talon markets, revel in the maple syrup and try local poutines a bagels. Join me now, as Montréal goes mad for F1.

That talk with the taxi driver and his little Senna appreciation speech was realy lovely
I'm from a suburb of montreal and I'm glad you ate a proper poutine. Sometimes tourists comes and eat a shitty version with improper cheese and gravy. You went to one of the best poutine in Montreal. Great job!
And it uses proper curds, NOT cheddar cheese!
I love when he described it correctly as “dangerously good”. Hahaha, nothing like a good Poutine.
Yeah i was gonna say props to him, thats about as legit of a poutine as they get. Good man😂
7:30 „it‘s dangerously good“ 😂 I have to take a flight to Montreal 🏃🏼♀️🏃🏼♀️✈️
I enjoyed greatly the art gallery part. Her explanation of the concepts felt honest and without exageration, and made me want to go watch in person.
I’m from Montreal! So I really appreciated this episode ! I noticed just how good your video are getting ! Incredible!
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you for a great review of one of our fine Canadian cities! We hope that all visitors explore what is on offer and enjoy every moment.
Nice to see you out and about in Montreal and taking in the local flavors. Such a unique city. Hope you enjoy the rest of your stay.
So good!
Another excellent video. You did Montreal justice, hitting some of the local favourite hotspots. It was great to meet you at the track as well!
Thanks, you too!
9:17 nearly as long as a Leonard Cohen song!
Great city & a great round-up of Montreal, mate.
Kym great video you should also visit schwartz Deli being close to downtown.
Another high quality video Kym. My wife and I were really impressed with watching in Montreal how hard you work.
Thanks again for putting our picture in your Montreal F1 photo album. It was quite a surprise to see you next to us at the Paddock Club F1 Experiences Suite taking candids!
Good to meet you in the club
Welcome to Montreal! Great video! Enjoy the weekend!
Thank you! You too!
Enjoy Montreal it's such a great city
Great! I like your Job ! :) Bienvenu à Montréal!
You had good advisers Kym. The poutine you tried is definitely one of the best in Montreal. The bagel place (St-Viateur) is one of the two best in the city with Fairmount Bagels. Enjoy your stay and try not to pay too much attention the the f*%king road work everywhere.
Awwww I really wanted to bump into you in Canada!!! Next year please. I would absolutely love it!
Always gotta love Airline people trying to intimidate people thinking you don't know your rights. Great video as always Kym
Love these videos, damn they’re addictive! Thanks Kym!🏁
You were in shot on Sky Sports (for ESPN in US) during FP2 taking photos of LeClerc. Recognized your bucket hat.
Great to see you in town. Looking forward to the weekend. I see you were on St-Paul street, just next is St-Pierre street and best espresso in the city. Micro Espresso. Say hi to Simon if you go. Enjoy your weekend.
Love your videos and I wish I was there to visit that Art Gallery it looked awesome
Kym I LOVE watching your vlogs!! Thank you!! Wish I could be in your baggage 😋
I find my way to Montreal from Florida every year for the GP. There's no other city that embraces F1 like Montreal. If you haven't already, spend some time in Old Montreal. That's where you'll find some of the best restaurants the city has to offer. 🇨🇦 🏎 🏁 🇨🇦 🏎 🏁
I work at a poutine restaurant and food truck in the US and it makes me happy that you love poutine.
Wonderful stuff. I hope tomorrow's race is a good one.
Great video!!! Those bagels ARE outstanding!!
They are!
Oh man.. I was there yesterday in la Banquise and the track. I was hoping to get a glimpse of you as well 😅
It was good seeing you Kym!
Well done. You certainly hit a few of the “must do’s” in Montreal- Leonard Cohen, bagels, poutine, the art gallery., and I enjoyed your market montage. Montreal’s a great city!
BTW, I believe the stairways are designed with the snow in mind. Any experts out there?
Thank you Kym.
Just watched this video (a bit late).
Little fun fact, one of the Maple Syrup bottle that you showed on camera "Le Tabarnak" is actually a very popular swear word in Montreal.
Loosely translates to "dumbf*ck" :D
Love the wall art. Good travel vlog.
I love this video & I love Canada❤🙌
It was great seeing you in montreal!!
Hi Kim welcome to my hometown you will love Montreal same vibes as Melbourne lots of Italian heritage you should visit little Italy 🏁🏎️🇨🇦🇮🇹big support for Ferrari you should eat beaver tales with maple syrup going back home next year for the gran Prix was there in 2022 now I live in Brisbane married to an Aussie girl 26 years ago stay safe and passion Kim 🇦🇺🇨🇦
Thanks for the tips!
😊 Awww a nice showcase of my city ! Awesome video !
Glad you liked it!
Over here in Portugal we say "TAP: Take Another Plane"
Parolo
@@joaovtf6001 joao, vtf
LUL
Whoever recommended you La Banquise knows their stuff, legendary place
Wow what a neat gallery visit!
Hello again Kym, I was down Crescent St on Monday night, it was very lively...I think I seen you in pitlane on Friday, I was seated in GS 16 opposite the Williams garage. I'll try upload the 2 photos I took for you to verify.
(Travelled from UK to Montreal)
I was in pitlane for FP2
@@KymIllman Not sure if I can upload photos into the comments section, can I ???
The Canadian GP just won't be the same without the Goat.
Captain is king. Are you going to Las Vegas, I hear a little expensive
I was anticipating Kim's video from Montreal more than the race itself 😅
Music to my ears
This is a great video
Gotta say, it takes a special kind of man to keep eating while someone else clean up your mess 😮😂😂
And record it all too 🤦♂️
Hi Mr. Kym, hope to meet you in Montreal :)
I will be there
@@KymIllman I will monitor your instagram. Hope you have time for a coffee or move around the town :)
Wait, the TAP flight to Montreal was on an A321? Quite interesting. Here in Asia people would throw a fit if they get a narrowbody on a 3 hour flight!
I wonder the kind of patience one needs to keep while going about so much of travelling…Zen like Kym👏🏻
I agree, but I'm sure flying business and first class eases the pain a bit.
Sofitel Boutique hotel, I stayed their for 4days to meet with JV. He likes that hotel and recommended the hotel …. I like it too.
Ths video is better than what the tourist board would put out with a lot more people and time! Just don't try filming with your bags on an escalator or you might end up with a head wound.
Great video!
Thanks!
Montreal in June is truly Sublime. Beautiful, friendly, and so much to see and do. ❤
Not sublime this week. Cold and wet for much of it.
Umm. June weather in Montreal is hit and miss. You may get some sunshine but still cold. I'm surprised Kym was even able to get around a city that is constantly fixing horrendous pot holes on their roads.
@@jancam464 You don't even need it when you can just take the Metro.
Excellent
Should have gone to Chez Claudette. Waaay better poutine than La Banquise. The latter gets hyped mostly because it is open late (for drunk clubbers to stumble into). Chez Claudette blows it out the water in terms of taste and value!
Thanks
Tip for Madrid - taxi is a 25€ flat fare to Barajas instead of Uber. Not sure about inbound
Welcome to Montreal!!!
Love Montreal
Thank you for showing me my country!
My pleasure!
That bagel joint is the best. The line on weekend mornings is to China. Crescent St got boring many years ago. There are better places to hang out. The gallery is spot on. If my memory serves me well they have another location on St Paul St in Old Town which I believe is the better location. I nearly bought a pricey piece a decade ago. I regret not buying it. And for the love of God please get dinner at Garde Manger.
I don't think I've ever made my bed while staying at a hotel lol
Welcome to
Montreal kym,
Interesting, long haul on a 321 Neo... any comments wide body vs narrow body for this kind of flight?
Would definitely rather a wide body jet, but it was a pretty good value fly
I love Kym and his travel videos and tips, but sometimes I feel, we all don't get these nice business/first class and lounge access. Most of us travel as regular plebs :( ... however, his tips for savings costs is gold regardless of class. Just don't mention the airport trolley costs to Kym, he is not a fan of spending money on that. :)
He hates it. Who arrives into countries with the right coins to get a trolley as most don’t off we card payments.
Thanks for another cracker, Kym! Hope you're staying dry over there
I am!
Welcome to Montreal
Hello Kym :-)
wow, I love travel vlogs
One day I will go to my home Grand Prix
Really enjoyed the vlog Kym, you’ve got a very calm and composed demeanour. Hated those artworks though, tacky as anything 😂
You don't like Mr. Sticky Peaches?! He's only copying the best artists!
The best thing about art! You either love it or hate it😊 I loved it. Thinking a trip to Montreal is in the cards! Cheers
@@elainel8588 totally, i don't know much about art, but i do know tacky.
Poutine mate - singular, not poutines. Cheese curds mate - not cheddar. Find a poutine food truck next time and you will be blown away. The Montreal F1 downtown nightlife is wild btw.
Great video and glad you enjoyed the poutine!
1 of the best poutine is at Amir restaurant chain; just make sure you get the traditional poutine with normal French fries, not the 1 made with their signature garlic potatoes (which are great on their own)
dont let anyone tell you you cant film aircraft or yourself onboard
Now I want poutine...
check with cardiologist first; for real
A flight to Canada at 4:20.....
Did you buy Madrid Montreal or Madrid Lisbon and another Lisbon Montreal?
Those wrists are pretty bare, Kym!
Montreal seems like a nice city, shame about the country's leader
Is it me or you seem to enjoy Montreal MODERATLY?
Omg what does it cost? jeez
Being a Canadian, what is a Canadian credit card? We use cards like Visa and Mastercard like the rest of the world.
It's a card associated with a Canadian Bank. Like a Visa TD or Master Card Banque Nationale. So a Visa Citi from the US won't work.
I did not know that. I'm just a fool that lives in western Canada. Thanks for the info.
Some places in Montreal only accept credit cards associated with a Canadian bank. Which is why American tourists go to Toronto and pretty much anywhere else in Canada with no issues. Quebecers just doing quebecer things. :)
Perhaps it was meant to be Debit cards
Wich are not credit card
Fairmount bagels accepts exclusively cash (canadian)
Be warned
700-800 USD or 1300 EURO? I would like to do your exchanges sir! :D
TAP is always the last resort, when all other options have been extinguished.
Hahaha the carry on bag policy is funky to say the least. Do they expect us to fly over an ocean with no luggage? No carry on?
Wait you had an accident. Then you filmed while they cleaned it up....
Even shitty poutine in Canada is awfully good when you are a starving college kid traveling in Oh Canada! during summer break.
Montréal is the best, ask the drivers 😊
La banquise is the worst poutine ever
You don't need to pluralize poutine when you say it
Correct
An A321 transatlantic??
Yes. Montreal is a small city and there is some Airlines that use A321 Neo on routes to Europe. TAP do it to Lisbon, Transat to Lisbon, Amsterdam and other cities.
@@francisfleury6171 Ah right, thanks for that.
The person telling you you cant film on the plane. That kind of person gets off on expressions of authority over people. I cant stand people like that. The worst case is when you come across a cop that has no reason to flex their limited authority over you. Can't stand that ish
typical bs from TAP airlines . . .so surprised Kym took this airline.
Ok, the weird driver portraits with doodles on them- really don't care too much about that. But the deformed F1 model is actually quite unique and impressive. Nice showcase.
You will have to explain the economics of a F1 photographer. Cause I can't understand how you can afford living in hotels for the whole season and fly bussines.
I never stop working.
Music was trash in this one Kym
I offer a money back guarantee
Ummm you seem to have lost someone 😅
30 euros for a 7 min trip....
Paid more than that on Friday night from the track.
Poutine has no s and it's not cheddar cheese but cheese curds and the gravy is not sweet.
According to the kitchen crew their gravy is definitely sweetened
@@KymIllman well proper poutine isn't sweet gravy...
Great city ... but completely sh*t airport and perhaps the roughest urban roads in Canada. I looked for you at the event but must have missed you amongst our fellow bald guys.
You can't record inside the airplane? Watch me, mate. Ha
QUESTION: With F1 accomm and costs being so high and expensive, im guessing you can write stuff off as expenses and taxes - what bizarre stuff do you find yourself doing paying for stuff knowing it will be written off and or how stressful is it having to outlay so much to cover the sport ? I can imagine there would be times when youre doing crazy stuff just to get a bed and other times where youre buying stuff you dont need coz you have to break even. any stories ?
Wow I think you’re confused? 😂 Kym doesn’t have to do crazy things to “get a bed” or to “break even”. He’s a millionaire so I think his finances are just fine lol
Kym Iliman owns 3 companies. He’s an avid collector of Rolex watches and he published an African Safari Photography Book.
And now in his retirement he became an acredited F1 photographer and travels the world.
He has explained this in many of his videos.
@@GinaBCollecting yes - but i used to be a graphic artist - you write off all the stuff you buy. And Kym would need to have to write off all the expensive rooms and airlines and costs. and there would be some really interesting stories around national boundaries and rules and tax deadlines and things that for someone like me - who is an ex graphic artist. i can imagine he would in duty free shops buy cameras and stuff to make his tax better. where as i would buy it from a store. he would buy it OS knowing it would then offset. thats how artists roll Gina. You have to make sure theres more coming in than going on.
@@sspacegghost lol you’re lost and you still don’t get it. Kym doesn’t need to “penny pinch” - he’s NOT a starving artist. He’s a millionaire and that’s NOT how millionaires roll.
He’s NOT photographing F1 or on UA-cam to make money. He has more money coming in from his 3 businesses. He’s mentioned this in multiple videos.
He owns several homes in Australia and your asking him what does he have to do to “find a bed” at night - like he’s some struggling artist?
He’s not a starving artists. He’s not even an artist. He is a businessman who did very well in life and now he’s enjoying his retirement by photographing F1.
Again, he’s explained this all in his his previous videos.
@@GinaBCollecting Gina i didnt ask you - i asked him. how about you let him speak for himself. im sure he has a lot more insight than your class based attack on me here
@@sspacegghost You mistakenly assumed that Kym was some struggling F1 UA-camr and now you’re embarrassed that someone pointed out your mistake. Hey but at least you’re more informed. I’m glad I could help 👍
Putine is awsome....
