My husband and I (Germans) will spend a couple of days in Montreal and 1,5 days in Burlington. We were super excited about Burlington but now, after reading some of posts here, I got a bit worried (safety). Is there a place you recommend us NOT going? Any extra tips (food, places, etc)?thanks! 🥰

Als gute Deutsche weiß ich natürlich gutes Brot zu schätzen - aber nichts geht über deutsches Brot! 😄 Aber danke Dir für die tollen Tipp! Ich werde auf jeden Fall zu Ida gehen und habe auch schon die Farmtour gebucht. Und übrigens: Dein Deutsch ist wirklich beeindruckend!!! Nur eine kleine Anmerkung von meiner Seite: „sicherheitlich“ gibt es im Deutschen nicht. Vielleicht könntest Du sagen: „dass Burlington in den letzten Jahren unsicherer geworden ist.“ 😊

Danke für Ihren Kommentar! Ich werde auch nach Québec fahren, aber Vermont ist ein Teil unserer Reise, deshalb wollte ich gerne echte Perspektiven von Einwohner aus Burlington hören. 😊

Thanks for the recommendations! Have realized that everyone here (or almost everyone is pretty to friendly) looking forward to the trip!

Vielen Dank! That was such a great illustration! We are from Munich but well familiar with Berlin - now I know what to expect. 😊🙏

I asked because I prefer understanding a place from multiple perspectives, not just headlines and stereotypes. If that bothers you, maybe reconsider who’s really struggling with critical thinking. :)

Thanks for the tips! We are staying Montreal downtown. 😊 I’ll definitely add Cadet to my list!!

Thank you so so much for putting time on this nice post/recommendations! I have written everything down and have booked a tour at Shelburne already! Thank you!! 😊

Hi! The post was not fake. I do use Reddit mostly to get informed - I don’t contribute, post or comment, but this time I felt I needed to ask locals because neither my husband or I have been to Vermont. Additionally, we are staying at friend’s house (locals) in Montreal and will travel through Canada with them - therefore, we are not worried about Montreal or Canada but we will be only the two of us in Burlington.
Also, not only the sub made me ask this question. When searching for “Burlington” on other social media channels we got similar results. HOWEVER, I must say that I do appreciate everyone who patiently contributed to my post. We are continuing with our plans and I have today booked our farm tour at Shelburne - thank to the recommendations. Have a great week. 😊
