Montreal is a beautiful city!

Heidi_C, Aug 2023

A 6 1/2 hour walk around Montreal — we saw everything. Pierre was a terrific guide - interesting, knowledgeable. He took us everywhere we wanted to see plus places only a local would know. My only advice is to access the tour directly through City Unscripted. Viator is HORRIBLE and will be happy to rob you and ruin your vacation. Go direct to City Unscripted

Hidden Gems

Dan was very knowledgeable and accommodating for my health issues. I had visited Montreal before but we learned about new gems- like the Berlin Wall👍👍

Too expensive

Saleh_M, Jun 2023

The tour guide was lovely and dedicated. She was a professional tour guide who had lived in Montreal for 8 years. As such I feel that the tour lacked certain insight that someone who lived a significant part of their lives in Montreal would have. I in no way fault the tour guide who did the job to her best ability - I 100% fault the company as this tour was quite expensive. Pros - you will cover an immense amount of ground across Montreal in 8 hours and see a lot. Cons - I did not get that in depth insight that I hoped for. It was good but for the price paid I wouldn’t do it again, perhaps the audio on the hop on hop off bus would offer more insight. 8/10 to the tour guide for doing her job 4/10 to this company for advertising and organising this tour in this way - way too expensive.

Customized tour that fit my interests perfectly!

Stephanie_L, Oct 2022

Gabriel was a wonderful tour guide full of knowledge about Montreal's architecture and history (as well as some great places to grab a bite to eat!). He really listened to my interests and put together an itinerary that suited me well! We explored rare Isaac Newton books and science history at McGill University, stopped at a cafe afterward for coffee and snack, walked through beautiful neighborhoods, and wandered to Place des Arts and Old Port for sightseeing, where he recommended some great food. Gabriel is the best, and so was this tour!

A fantastic tour with Lesley!

Ray_T, Apr 2022

Lesley is the best; knowledgeable, funny, super friendly, and extremely helpful. We had a great time on her tour and learned so many things that only a local would know. She also had so many great recommendations for after the tour. Her tour is a must!
