Light hearted fun evening activity - The storytelling was fantastic! Very well done. The delivery made me smile :) Carmela was a real treat and helped make sure our group didn’t get run over by impatient drivers.

Nice evening with friends. - Superb visit with Carmela, very interesting, funny and spontaneous. She maintains the role of her character throughout the visit. We loved our experience, what a beautiful evening. The only thing I found unfortunate was that during the visit, the group was getting bigger and these people were able to enjoy the latest stories without having to pay for the activity. Stricter control of the group would be appreciated.

Spooky tour - amazing guide - Our guide, Constance, really loves her job. She is a great storyteller! Also, we experienced intense wind and lightning when she told the scariest parts. Coincidence???

Fabulous and engaging host! - Our guide was a true pleasure. She was incredibly engaging and had several fun and spooky stories. We had a lot of rain the night of the walk but that only made the evening that much more creepy. By far the best ghost tour we have been on.

A great way to spend an evening in Montréal! - Our guide, Odile, was an engaging storyteller and very funny! The tour was a great way to learn a touch of Old Montréal and New France history with our teenagers who wouldn’t last on a full day tour. We loved it and would definitely recommend.

Cool historical stuff through centuries in Old Montreal - Explained very well in theatrical way and fun. Cool to do it at night to make a little spookier. Thanks to Madame Morphine to guide us.

ghosts? look for them somewhere else - walking through old Montreal was nice. There was no excitement at all. We thought that characters were going to appear.
