Must do Tour!! - Isabelle was our guide and she was fantastic. She had great knowledge of the city and its history. My only regret was the tour could go on for longer as there is only so much you can fit in 2 hours. Isabelle also gave us a sheet with restaurant recommendations and just some general tips for the time in Montreal. Highly recommend you do this tour if you’re in Montreal!!

Great Old Montreal overview. - This was a terrific tour, offering a great overview of Old Montreal. Even in winter, there was plenty to see and learn. Having a guide that is a professional teacher was a bonus - informative and engaging.

Excellent - Excellent welcome and energy from Isabelle, she quickly put the group at ease despite the language barrier (in my case) Her explanations / anecdotes / culinary / cultural recommendations are relevant, her dynamism and her little touches of humor finish brightening the visit, again thank you to her.

My family had a... - My family had a delightful tour with Isabelle. She was knowledgeable, engaging, and shared information about the history of Montreal. We are Californians and aren’t generally used to the very cold weather here. Isabelle was sensitive to our comfort. We would definitely take another tour with her. We highly recommend the tour.

Couples getaway weekend- Walking Tour was Perfect! - Great tour with great detail and enthusiasm from our guide. Even if it was the same tour for everyone she made it feel like we were getting the “exclusive”. Nice tips and suggestions for local fare along the way. Perfect pacing and agenda even on 18 (F) degree morning. Highly recommend. The two hour time frame was exactly the right amount for us!
