I am a kid and I am 8 years old and I think you should take this tour with Eric because he's a good tour guide and you can try new foods.He is also very nice and the favorite thing I ate was poutine.It was so filling and good.

My aunt and I took a private food tour of Montreal's Mile End with Donna-Lynn! We had a great time learning the history of the area, the stories of the places we ended up going to, and chatting about hockey and TV shows we had seen. It was an excellent tour and definitely worth the 3 hours of your time. The food was delicious and from local mom and pop stores that had deep ties to the community. Big big recommend, and definitely book with Donna-Lynn if you can.

The mile-end food tour was an amazing experience. The gravlax sandwich, the Greek surprise delight, the gnocchi, the Montreal bagel, the poutine and the canolli were all delicious. We had a great group of 11 from all over and Louis our guide was friendly, fun and gave us a wonderful insight to the history of Montreal and Quebec.
