Beautiful views of city of Montreal. Nice commentary, comfortable (your choice of indoor or outdoor seating). Great local beer, food not so great, but the cruise more than makes up for it.
Watching the Skyline of Montreal City.

The cruise, guidance and staff were very kind. Totally recommended. I enjoyed the views of the Clock Tower, the Biosphere, La Ronde Park., La Rue de Montreal. And also learn a thing or two about the city with the great guide we had. Beautiful experience.

I already lived in Montreal and I wanted to learn more about the city. Which didn’t happen. It was like : at your right there La ronde. At your right there’s bota bota….and the guide was struggling in French and in English. Also watch out they don’t tell you that one can of beer is 16$ with tax.
Nice ride along the river
