Wonderful view of the city with a great tour guide - Great bikes and an even better guide. Mike was superb. Easy spot to walk to from our hotel,right in the main tourist district. Bikes were easy to use and even better after the tour we could use the bike till 6pm. We got to see a lot of montreal and then we biked by ourselves to the top of Mt royal. Mike knew a ton about montreal and had a good path for us. The city is very bikeable. Oh plus we got a free drink and snack, not sure if that is normal. Some improvements I would suggest. 1) give better clothing guidance. At the shop it was fairly warm, but the rivers and bridges were much cooler. Bring a windbreaker. 2) did not like the mixed language tour. It's a big waste of time and frustrating to repeat everything twice. Ask to see if they have an all English or all French tour.

Best Way to See the City - Such a great way to see the city and learn about its history and architecture while doing something fun outdoors together. Mike was our tour guide and he was exceptional - very knowledgeable, focused on safety and made sure to engage every member of the group. The staff at the shop were super friendly and helpful. The options to keep bikes thru rest of the day after the tour was a nice feature too - we ended up biking to Mt Royale and exploring the massive park on bikes.

Recommended - I did the 3 hour Architecture bike tour with Mike who was an excellent guide. Extremely knowledgeable about the history and buildings of Montreal and very good on keeping everyone safe. There were nine of us on the tour (3 French speakers and 6 English). I took an e-bike which isn't at all necessary for the 3 hours tour (not a great distance and apart from one hill which we walked up) was pancake-flat. A bonus for using this company was the facility to retain the bike until 6pm. I used all the time and this is where the e-bike proved to be the correct choice. I covered a lot of miles (& still had plenty of juice left) and was glad of the power assist for the climb up Mont Royal. Personally I would have liked an extra hour on the architecture of Montreal which is top notch. For anyone who is keen on renovated buildings I can highy recommend coffee in the former Royal Bank of Canada (360 Rue St Jacques) and lunch in the superb art deco restaurant Le9 in the Eaton Centre. A veritable treat.

Loved it! - Given we are over 60 years old, this was perfect. Our guide was informative and inclusive and we really enjoyed our time with her. The comfortable ebikes were easy to use. Our only suggestion is better pacing to suit the group— there were a few near misses and pile ups. Overall, it was a marvelous way to see so much of Montreal.
