Christmas traditions in Montreal. - Our guide Dave was knowledgeable and interesting. He gave us wonderful history and tidbits about Montréal and Christmas traditions in his city. We walked through beautiful areas with lights and he encouraged us to see certain areas no included in this tour. Christmas walking tour was a lot of fun and a great way to get in the spirit!

Fun and interesting - We loved our walking tour of Old Montreal...we saw things we would have never come upon, noticed, or visited...and our guide, Pierre, was great and patient with us... we learned to dress very much for the conditions outside as it is mostly outside... we'd definitely recommend it!

Our tour guide was Awesome and very informative and patient. We got lost and was late and he could have walked away. - It was an AWESOME tour Christmas Walking Tour in Old Montreal. Tonight Dec 20/19. We were late as we got lost and our Guide was kind and treated us well. My name is Hazel Reid and had my daughter & her son and her daughter & partner and baby. We all fully enjoyed the time he spent with us and explaining things over and over. Hopefully I can come to Montreal and get a daylight tour I want to see so much more. Loved, Loved it

Christmas Walking Tour in Old Montreal - My friends and I did this walk in the evening on December 7th and we had a great time! We were in and out of several buildings, so the cold was not a problem. Isabelle, our guide, gave the tour in English, and she checked to make sure everyone was comfortable and having a good tour. She was always open to questions and comments, and was very informative, and also very engaging and entertaining. We arrived at the location a few minutes early, and two guides arrived because 27 people had reserved the tour! I was pleased that they broke us up into small manageable groups - good planning on their part! All in all, this was a very successful evening, and I'll be looking for other options from this company for my next visit to Montreal.

More history than Christmas which is ok. - Good historical walk with some gems of information but not too much Christmas focus. Guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable.

Pretty lights - Lovely lighting for the holidays on so many buildings- I would like to go for a more historical tour; to learn about the old buildings and have an opportunity to enter them….if possible.
