Great guide, great ride - Guide Mike was awesome. Knowledgeable and entertaining. Very interactive and interesting. The place you pick up the bikes allow you to keep the bike after the tour until 6:00pm. So a very nice bonus. Saw all parts of the city that would be difficult to see without a bike. All around a very lovely experience.

Highly recommended - Get experience. Julian was very informative, you could hear the love of his city in his stories.
We were able to keep the e-bikes for the remainder of the day at no additional costs. All the bike rental staff were very helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.

Our guide was "Mike on a... - Our guide was "Mike on a Bike" and he was amazing - he did the entire tour in both English AND French for our mixed group! We learned lots of interesting facts about Montreal. The ride over the bridge is definitely not for the faint of heart, but we had a wonderful day overall. Thanks!

A Biking Overview of Montreal - Loved the 3 hour architecture tour. Mike was a great guide. He was able to balance the group (about 9 of us) on a mixture of regular and e-bikes. His explanations of the architecture in Montreal and the emphasis on the importance of certain material and design elements was great, especially for those of us who do not have an architecture background.
Also loved that we could keep the bikes after the tour, which we used (with some map help from the great employees in the shop) to find lunch and shopping on Rue Mont-Royal.

Great way to see sights in Montreal & learn about the history & architecture - We took this tour at the beginning of our holiday & it was a great introduction to Montreal. Nicolas was a very knowledgeable & friendly guide & we learnt a lot about the history & architecture of Montreal. We also covered alot of ground in the 3 hours & really enjoyed.

Excellent tour guide - Mike was an excellent tour guide and had a lot of interesting things to say about the city. There’s was mostly flat trails with only the bridge being a little steep. Great way to see different parts of the city!

Need less History / more riding - Not enough bike riding. We left the tour after 45 minutes and had riden the bike for about 6-7 minutes. We stopped at the first location and the tour guide talked about history of Montreal for over 20 minutes. We went to second stop and again way too much history talking. We did not choose a history tour we chose a bike/architectural tour. As our visit in Montreal continued we saw so much interesting architecture. This tour may have gotten to more talk about architecture but we were not going to waste more time in this beautiful city. Please change your description of the tour to state HISTORY and that for a 3 hour tour I’m guessing there is less than 1 hour of actual bike riding.
