Highly recommended food tour in Montreal! We came for my mother-in-law’s 60th birthday and what a beautiful way to spend it! We got to experience all the charming and well-known restaurants around the area. But what made the tour was our amazing tour guide Catherine! She was a very informative, well-spoken, kind-hearted soul and she always had a smile on her face even in the pouring rain.
