Informative Montreal tour

Mustafa was an excellent tour guide. He provided lots of historical information about Montreal. We stopped at an awesome French pastry shop Duc de Lorraine and bought an awesome pastry for our trip to the top of Montreal to take in the incredible view. Mustafa also provided lots of places to check out and also restaurants recommendations. The boat ride was a good way to end the tour to see Montreal from the water.
