I thought it was a little disappointing. It's more of a game of questions than a fun opportunity to visit the city as I hoped. I thought I'd see more places (the Clock Tower , the Jacques Cartier Bridge and learn more about each place. The children quickly grew tired.
Great value, great for families!

Great value, and a fun way to see the old city (Vieux Montréal). We are a family of four, and we split into two teams. Everyone had fun. This took us about two hours.

We love these scavenger hunts as they get us moving and seeing things we might not have without it. It also makes the sight seeing more interactive.

This was so much fun and well worth the money. We spent 2.5 hours on this tour and walked about 3,600 steps. Anyone who is interested in learning about Old Montreal and is able bodied enough to walk up hills and on cobblestones should take this tour. We took it at night while we had some time to kill before a flight, so we didn't get to go in to the sights that were closed, but it was still a lot of fun.
Not for Everyone

It was just OK. I purchased to give my older teens something to so but they thought it was boring. I thought it was informational but not interested in the side quests. To be fair it was 85 degrees and we all wanted to seek shade.
Great foundation for a new city!

This scavenger hunt is really something to do with your family. We learnt a lot about Montreal’s history while having a great family time. Moreover everyone participated even teens.
