5.00Very informative tour in a comfortable van. We only had 8 people, so it wasn’t crowded. Not sure providing the right name for our tour person—Fern/Farn, but she was lovely and took her time in providing us with information about what we were seeing. Very enjoyable 3 hours.
Good tour of mediocre city.

4.00the tour kept us busy and our tour guide was excellent but compared to most other cities we have visited just didn't have that much of interest to offer. A very nice city but no especially interesting. Considering that it was over priced too.
A great way to see Montreal
