Not a great experience, the tour guide was nice but that’s about it. The company needs to review who they are hiring, I am not expecting an expert but I am expecting informative and educational tour for that kind price. I think I will avoid this tour company from now on.

Our guide was Henry and he showed us many interesting sights in our area. It really helped us enjoy Montreal. He also recommended eating spots and other sights to visit. Definitely worth going with a local guide.

Carlos was great - he took us around Old Town and explained some history. We went through parts of the Underground enjoying the architecture as we walked, where old meets new, as well as Chinatown. He met us right at our hotel which was a plus.

We had a great experience with this travel company’s tour, everything from the communication pre- and post-tour to the actual tour itself. They contacted us via phone and text before the tour to confirm details and to explore our preferences and mobility issues. Then our actual tour guide, Carolina, also contacted us to confirm meeting details and preferences. She was even early and took us around Montreal to all of our preferred sites. She allowed us time to do some souvenir shopping too. She was kind and funny and informative.
Great Introduction to Montreal

Thomas was a friendly and knowledgeable guide and we got to see so much of the city! It was a lot of walking so make sure you wear comfortable shoes and bring water! This was a great introduction to Montreal from the highest point in the city to the water!

Our guide, Henry Gomez, was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide for our four hour walking tour of Old Montreal. The pacing was perfect and we visited a variety of sites including the underground city.
