¡Qué alegría tenerte por aquí! Hoy te llevo a un rincón de Montreal donde el tiempo parece detenerse, un lugar que te abraza con su historia y su belleza.
Imagina que estás en el Viejo Montreal, justo frente a la imponente Basílica de Notre-Dame. El aire, a veces crujiente y frío en invierno, otras veces suave y húmedo en verano, te acaricia la cara. Puedes oler la mezcla de siglos de piedra antigua y el aroma de los cafés cercanos, quizás un toque de maple o de pan recién horneando si es temprano por la mañana. Con cada paso, sientes bajo tus pies los adoquines irregulares, pulidos por incontables pisadas a lo largo de los años. Es una textura rugosa, auténtica, que te conecta con el pasado.
Escuchas el murmullo de la gente, una mezcla de idiomas que te rodea, voces que se alzan y bajan con el ritmo de la ciudad. Pero luego, como si una ola de silencio te envolviera, te acercas a la Basílica y el sonido cambia. Se vuelve más reverente, más suave. Quizás un repique lejano de campanas, el suave zumbido del tráfico que se desvanece, y si la puerta está abierta, puedes percibir el eco lejano de un órgano, profundo y resonante, que te hace vibrar el pecho. El tacto del hierro forjado de las rejas, frío y firme, te recuerda la solidez de este lugar, un ancla en el tiempo.
Ahora, si necesitas alquilar una silla de ruedas o un scooter eléctrico justo al lado de la Basílica de Notre-Dame, la verdad es que no es tan sencillo como encontrar un puesto de bicis. No hay un lugar "ahí mismo" para un alquiler espontáneo de un par de horas. La mayoría de los alquileres de este tipo de equipos se gestionan a través de tiendas de suministros médicos, y suelen ser por periodos más largos, como días o semanas, no solo para una visita rápida.
Para encontrar uno, tendrías que buscar en el centro de Montreal o en barrios cercanos.

Llama con antelación para preguntar sobre la disponibilidad, los precios y si ofrecen entrega a domicilio, ya que la Basílica no tiene este servicio.
El costo puede variar mucho. Una silla de ruedas manual puede costar entre 15-25 CAD al día o 60-100 CAD a la semana. Los scooters eléctricos son bastante más caros, pudiendo rondar los 30-50 CAD al día y 150-250 CAD a la semana, o incluso más. Ten en cuenta que a menudo se requiere un depósito y, a veces, un período mínimo de alquiler.
Si necesitas ayuda una vez que estés en Montreal, el personal de la Basílica de Notre-Dame es muy amable y puede orientarte sobre la accesibilidad del lugar. También puedes contactar con la oficina de turismo de Montreal (Tourisme Montréal) para obtener información sobre servicios de accesibilidad en la ciudad. Muchos hoteles también tienen sillas de ruedas básicas para uso de sus huéspedes, así que si te hospedas en uno, pregúntales.

Olya de las callejuelas.¡Qué alegría tenerte por aquí! Hoy te llevo a un rincón de Montreal donde el tiempo parece detenerse, un lugar que te abraza con su historia y su belleza.
Imagina que estás en el Viejo Montreal, justo frente a la imponente Basílica de Notre-Dame. El aire, a veces crujiente y frío en invierno, otras veces suave y húmedo en verano, te acaricia la cara. Puedes oler la mezcla de siglos de piedra antigua y el aroma de los cafés cercanos, quizás un toque de maple o de pan recién horneando si es temprano por la mañana. Con cada paso, sientes bajo tus pies los adoquines irregulares, pulidos por incontables pisadas a lo largo de los años. Es una textura rugosa, auténtica, que te conecta con el pasado.
Escuchas el murmullo de la gente, una mezcla de idiomas que te rodea, voces que se alzan y bajan con el ritmo de la ciudad. Pero luego, como si una ola de silencio te envolviera, te acercas a la Basílica y el sonido cambia. Se vuelve más reverente, más suave. Quizás un repique lejano de campanas, el suave zumbido del tráfico que se desvanece, y si la puerta está abierta, puedes percibir el eco lejano de un órgano, profundo y resonante, que te hace vibrar el pecho. El tacto del hierro forjado de las rejas, frío y firme, te recuerda la solidez de este lugar, un ancla en el tiempo.
Ahora, si necesitas alquilar una silla de ruedas o un scooter eléctrico justo al lado de la Basílica de Notre-Dame, la verdad es que no es tan sencillo como encontrar un puesto de bicis. No hay un lugar "ahí mismo" para un alquiler espontáneo de un par de horas. La mayoría de los alquileres de este tipo de equipos se gestionan a través de tiendas de suministros médicos, y suelen ser por periodos más largos, como días o semanas, no solo para una visita rápida.
Para encontrar uno, tendrías que buscar en el centro de Montreal o en barrios cercanos. Te recomiendo que uses Google Maps y busques "medical supply store Montreal" o "sillas de ruedas Montreal" o "scooter movilidad Montreal" para encontrar tiendas de alquiler de equipos médicos. Llama con antelación para preguntar sobre la disponibilidad, los precios y si ofrecen entrega a domicilio, ya que la Basílica no tiene este servicio.
El costo puede variar mucho. Una silla de ruedas manual puede costar entre 15-25 CAD al día o 60-100 CAD a la semana. Los scooters eléctricos son bastante más caros, pudiendo rondar los 30-50 CAD al día y 150-250 CAD a la semana, o incluso más. Ten en cuenta que a menudo se requiere un depósito y, a veces, un período mínimo de alquiler.
