We took this tour last year when we were in Montréal and were so excited to take it again with Thom when we came back to town! Thom's incredible knowledge of and passion for Montréal and its history and people are infectious!! He has a gift for making the city's history and architecture and unique attributes come alive. Every time we come back to Montréal we will take one of Thom"s tours.
