The tour today was an amazing experience! Our tour guide Fran was exceptional - both knowledgeable and caring for the tourists in the group. She showed us all the highlights of Montreal, explained the history behind them, gave us a taste of typical foods for Montreal. She showed us the amazing views and hidden gems that the city has to offer. If you have just one day to see Montreal, this is definitely the best tour for this.

From Montreal: Quebec City & Montmorency Falls Full Day Trip

Ken_C, Jun 2026

Long day but worth it.

The falls are something to behold. Not as wide as Niagra but taller. You can get close up on the suspension bridge but there are a good few steps to get there. The view from the cable car is a must. The Quebec City guided tour was in the hea5 of the day so we ducked out after 15 mins to do our own thing. Go up to the hotel which is a Fairmont and impressive, you can go in free of charge. Some great bistros to grab a snack both at the top near hotel or at the port level. The coach journey is long, on the wa6 there was a short stop to use the facilities but the journey back was straight through. Our coach had a washroom at rear. The guide , William, was superb. A long da6 but worth it.

Take A Ride

A delightful way to spend the afternoon in Vieux Montreal. The staff were all well trained and welcoming. Information was easily understood in both English and French, s well as interesting. Drinks added to the experience. The 45 minute tour in a comfortable small group boat is an enjoyable way to see the port!

The Go-To Tour for Quebec City

From start to finish, it was very informative and very easy. William was a great guide and again, made things seem less. I highly recommend this tour to anyone in Montreal who wants to get away for the day to Quebec City. Tips: My wife and I didn't do the cruise and glad we didn't. We immersed ourselves in Quebec City and you NEED all 3 hours to do so. Lunch: We ate at Le Lapin Saute (In lower town) We sat outside, had a bottle of wine and I had the Rabbit pot pie. FANTASTIC. Cafes: all in upper town, those are the ones we enjoyed. Again, go be a tourist for the day, enjoy, and immerse yourself into this romantic city.

Great time on the food tour

Our guide Eric was very knowledgeable of the area and knew the best local places to eat. We had spanakopita, bagels and cream cheese, Korean ice cream, meat sandwiches, poutine, and gnocchi with spicy sauce. Everything was delicious and authentic. I would recommend this tour and guide to anyone.

Great Variety of food.

Celeste provided the group with a well planned, well executed food tour with a variety of tastes. When there was a minor delay glitch at one venue, she smoothly provided a 15 minute detour...that didn't even feel like a detour. SMOOTH SAVE! By all means book this tour. You won't be disappointed.

Begin your visit to Montreal with this tour

Pierre was an excellent guide, providing the group with a better understanding of the history of old town and the nationalities that made their home here throughout the years. He was happy to answer all questions and was entertaining with his commentary. The 2 hours went by quickly and if you are staying in Montreal for several days, this tour should be your introduction to this charming city.

Bike / E-bike Tour : Downtown, Old Montreal, Waterfront by Fitz

SHELLEY_C, Oct 2025

Exceptional

Highly recommended! We absolutely loved our bike tour. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted by the receptionist and then met our guide, Martin, and our fellow riders. The adventure began weaving through charming back-alley gardens and older neighborhoods where we discovered hidden, beautiful gardens — a wonderful tradition still kept alive. The tour continued through scenic parks and notable Montreal landmarks, including McGill University’s beautiful downtown campus, nestled at the base of Mount Royal with its grand architecture and lively student atmosphere. We also rode past the Bell Centre, home of the legendary Montreal Canadiens, before heading toward the Olympic Stadium, parts of Old Montreal, and other cultural highlights. Along the way, Martin shared fascinating stories about the city’s history and character, making every stop meaningful. We finished in the city’s newest districts, exploring the chic multi-unit complexes lining the canal. Martin was exceptional — knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate — making the entire experience truly unforgettable. The touring bikes were also very comfortable, adding to the enjoyment. Thank you for such a memorable morning and afternoon!

Susan_M, Oct 2025

Wonderful day.

It was wonderful. Our tour guide William was great and spoke to ALL of the people on the bus in their respective language including English, French and Spanish. We did the cruise which I’m not sure we would do again as it cut into our city touring - but we enjoyed that too. If you’re not a walker this trip might not be for you. We saw a lot of older folks struggling a bit. Lots of cobblestones and hills. But it was BEAUTIFUL. It was a long day but so worth it.
