Great short tour of the Old Port Area - Nice little wooden boat with three staff on board who were friendly and attentive. We started out with glasses of wine and lemonade. We toured the small area of the port of Montreal and the tour guide spoke both French and English to explain the site and history. The rushing water of the river was surprising but fun and short - we felt very safe. Only 45 min cruise as promised.
We were 7 mins late and they had already left and just put us on the next cruise which was fine because it’s right on the old port where we could visit the shops and have a snack

Enjoyable Tour of St. Lawrence River - My husband made a "mistake" and bought tickets for this tour that was next to the big boats like he intended. This small boat was open to the air and not under a searing hot sun of a glass enclosure. The atmosphere was one of a family get together to explore the Montreal area by boat. Very informative.

Relaxing Harbour Tour - We had a great time on our tour of the harbour. The guide was interesting and superbly transitioned between explanations in English and French. The boat driver was also funny and did a great job of driving us, especially in the rapids!

Beautiful boat ride, nice way to see some of the city from a different perspective! - A nice outing to do when visiting the city. The boat was small, but not too small. Definitely would recommend. We went in the beginning of October, weather was still very warm. The tour guides were both very friendly and we had the option to purchase - wine, water and soft drinks.
