Good food tour, with a nice variety of food to try - including both traditional Montreal dishes, and some more obscure picks. Our guide, Youlia, was fantastic. She provided lots of information about the food, and Montreal - even giving us recommendations for other things to checkout after the tour. Only giving 4 stars as some of the stops were a little different to those mentioned when I booked. We still enjoyed it, but I would definitely have liked to have smoked meat and canoli on this tour.

Cancellation policy vague. Booked 1 ticket thru my hotel and got an immediate refund. Another ticket was booked directly with the company and when I tried to cancel was told it was not refundable

This food tour with Lucas in the Mile End neighborhood of Montreal was great. Lucas was friendly, energetic and engaging and made the tour a truly fun experience. We really enjoyed the spots that we stopped by and loved hearing all of the stories about each place. Montréal is a large city and we will definitely sing up for another food tour with Secret food tours next time we visit.
