2.00As far as information and scenery, this ride is underwhelming, particularly for the amount charged. There was minimal explanation about what we saw, and the area we saw the most of was the seaport, which is rather industrial. On the other hand, if you want to have a drink and snacks on a boat cruise, this was OK. I would not recommend this if you expect to see awesome views or get a good historical background of the city.
Pleasant trip

5.00Whenever in Montreal, consider to have the bateau-mouche experience, sailing on the Saint -Lawrence river. The personal is great. We took a one hour trip which was enough to see the city of Montreal from the river. The only downfall is the quality of the microphone , as it is hard to understand what the guide presents .
