Best tour ever! - Carlos was very personable and very knowledgeable. We walked through a considerable amount of Montreal and thoroughly throughout old Montreal. It was quite an excursion and we would definitely definitely do this again!

Slightly different to the normal tour. - Gustavo was a great guy, interesting and informative and very sociable. You need to be aware he is not a native of Canada and therefore he didn’t always know the answers to our questions. He did though show us and tell us things that you would only know by living in the city. It’s not a traditional history filled tour, so be aware if that what you after, then this won’t be for you. We are a 4 , 2 couples and overall we did all enjoy.

Nice Walk through Old Montreal. - Daniel, our guide was flexible on our pick up location and ended the tour with the piece of the Berlin Wall located outside our hotel. He was knowledgeable and friendly. We would have enjoyed a bit of shopping time added in.

Kind local but not a professional tour guide. - Sylvia was very friendly, kind and loves Montreal. She walked us through the pretty bustling streets, restaurants and shops with some history. But her heavy Spanish accent made her English hard to understand. She reminded us she is not a professional tour guide, but a local showing us the sights. She loves Montreal and is excited to walk and talk about her home town.
