In spite of the weather, Debbie led an informative and fun tour. She shared stories and historical facts while constantly looking for sheltered areas to protect us from the elements. I would love to go on another tour with her!!!

Our bi-lingual Tour Guide Debbie was a Montreal native French Canadian. She gave us extensive historical background on the establishment, growth and current status of Montreal, carefully explaining the initial conflict between the British Protestants and French Catholics. She had a special love of architecture and geography. The 2 hr tour in November included outdoor sites and periodic indoor sites as well, important on our very cold day November day.
Guide Debbie had a clear and audible voice, set a good walking pace, and took time to answer questions. Her people skills were top notch. One of the top 3 guides I've had the pleasure of experiencing.

This was a great tour even though it was a rainy day. The group was a little large and it made it harder to stay out of the rain. Our tour guide was very nice and well informed.

So glad we did this experience early on our first day in Montreal. Darren our tour guide, was wonderful. Great personality & extremely knowledgeable about his city. We learned alot about the past & present of this beautiful area. At the end of the tour he shared with us printed lists of his recommendations (bars, restaurants, cafes, souvenir shops, activities, etc) that were very useful for the remainder of our stay, as well as future stays.

Guide great—informative, friendly with a good sense of humor. Small group—12. Learned a lot about old Montréal and its history to the present—all from a person who was born and raised here. She knew everything about the city and fielded all questions.

Make sure you are on time, as waiting for late people takes time away from the tour.
The tour guide was excellent, made sure everyone kept with the group.
The tour guide encouraged people to ask questions and was very happy to answer them.
The group is small and does not walk far or fast.
Highly recommended

Chantal was an outstanding guide - very knowledgeable and friendly. She answered every question the group had and told engaging stories about each stop on the tour. She really made the experience special! We appreciated the small group size as well, which made it feel much more personal. It was a perfect orientation to Old Montreal for our first day in town.
