By train
Via Rail offers many rail connections connecting more than 400 municipalities across Canada, including the country's largest cities. The Amtrak American railroad also offers several routes from the United States and more precisely from New York to Montreal. These two rail services will get you off at Montreal Central Station, right in the city center, from where you will have easy access to the Bonaventure metro station to which it is connected by underground.
By bus
The main intercity carrier in Quebec, Orléans Express, connects the Montreal metropolis with several regions across the province. The Greyhound bus company also covers more than 3,000 destinations across North America, the United States, Canada and Mexico. The terminus of these carriers is located at the Montreal Coach Station which is directly connected to the Berri-UQAM metro station.
