Highly recommend this tour with Frederick. He is very knowledgable, friendly, and made it a great experience.
Thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour with Robert Bonsant as our guide. Had great discussions around the origins of Montreal, its history, culture, politics, and current state. Highly educational. Robert was gracious and took time to explain everything in detail and answer our myriad questions patiently. Only regret was that we could not explore much of Montreal Underground City due to paucity of time. All in all, a good intro tour to the city and a pleasure to stroll along in Robert’s company. Seamless booking and confirmation process as well - excellent responsiveness from Aglae’ Pinsonnault!
Dan was amazing and appreciated him being a great teacher & guide. Very enjoyable experience.
Guide was Daniel...excellent! Definite an asset to your company. Group was 10-12 people, he was well organized and new he had all English speaking visitors to his city. He shared just enough detail as he could have talked much longer but we would have run out of time. He answered individual questions on the tour and at the end stayed for those wishing more information. GREAT tour guide!
Great tour guide, learned a lot about Montreal and got good tips about the city. Loved being able to stop where and when we wanted.
Excellent way to get an overview of Montreal. We toured much of the city and learned about the history, key figures and architecture. Fred was awesome!
Frederic was a great guide for our group of 4 visiting from Australia/UK. He was very entertaining and full of interesting anecdotes about Montreal and its history. This was a “Downtown and Old Montreal Walking Tour” for 3 hours and it was certainly worthwhile. We got a real feel for Montreal as a city now (how the underground walkways work, how the current city developed) as well as the expected historical commentary. He also showed us some unexpected coffee and dining options that we would probably not come across ourselves through guidebooks/internet searches. Definitely worth booking for a Montreal trip to really understand the city and not just its older history. The city is hilly though, and the street surfaces a bit uneven, so you need to be reasonably fit and agile to do the tour.
We had eight people in our group ages 3 to 65. Mathieu gave an educational tour that was also a lot of fun. Highly recommend!
A great way of seeing downtown and old Montreal. Without this tour we would have missed so much about the history life and diversity in this wonderful city. Frederic our guide was very helpful and interesting. Would highly recommend
Our guide, Pierre, was absolutely outstanding. Extraordinary depth of knowledge; very personable and engaging; entertaining; and very aware of the group’s individuality. He led the group like his protected flock and kept on point and on time. All questions were answered with ease and his recommendations were spot on.
Excellent. Our guide Felicite was knowledgeable, friendly and engaging. Couldn't ask for a better 2 hour walking tour experience.
Admittedly, we got off to a rocky start. Guidatour is not good at communicating. We arrived at the meet-up location but couldn't find our guide for about 15 minutes. I called the company and got hung up on twice. (Also, they never sent the guide's name or contact info by email, as I've come to expect from travel companies.) But luckily, a kind doorman helped us out. Once we connected with our guide, Renee, we had an amazing tour. Renee was incredibly knowledgeable and kept us entertained with trivia questions. He also gave us recommendations for restaurants, shopping, and other activities.Overall, totally worth it!
Our guide Sébastien was fantastic! We had an excellent private tour of Montreal. His anecdotes, valuable advice, and historical knowledge made the tour fascinating. We had a wonderful morning as a family, with our two children aged 10 and 13, who also enjoyed it very much. We recommend this tour without hesitation!
Perfectly welcomed by sylvain , our guide was very friendly adapts completely to the desires of his group. Perfect tour to discover old Montreal and excellent discovery for us fresh from France.
Hélène, our guide has passed on her passion for her city "floating crescent" that she knows better than anyone! Fabulous walk, catchy and never tiring... a delight!
We had an exceptional Guide on the historical point of view but also with a lot of humor and anecdotes I highly recommend Pierre T
The Tour was amazing!! Our guide Sebastien has shown us a lot of the city, its architecture and the meaning/backgrounds of the monuments/statues in the city. He was friendly and pleasant company. I would recommend him to anyone!!
