Christian was amazing. He packed so many sights and experiences in a very short time as our time was limited. He is a Montreal native and it showed in his love for the city and the unique background and history and character of the city that he shared. We left feeling as though we had really experienced Montreal!

Good tour for people who want to avoid germs on packed buses and good for people with mobility issues. Patrick was easy going, answered all our questions, and showed us the highlights. -Car was clean, comfortable and well appointed. We especially enjoyed the lovely bagel treat.

lynnmurphy025, Dec 2025
My husband and I did the half-day private city tour with Elie and for us, it was perfect. We were visiting Montreal in mid-December, so the weather was snowy, cold and cloudy. This private tour with car was just right to get an overview of the city while staying comfortably warm, but also giving us the option to explore on foot if we wanted. Elie was on-time, courteous and willing to change the itinerary based on our wants. It exceeded our expectations.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Im glad you had enjoyed the tour of Montreal with Elie, Thank you.

Rip off! Do not do it!

Frank_M, Oct 2025
Total rip off. False advertising, expected driver and guide. Got driver only, no guide, who had trouble with English, no idea of itinerary, no knowledge of sites/buildings/date. Driver tried very hard but was not up to it. Viator used many times, several countries this makes me question using it again. Previously was perfect. This time complete waist of money. Should get a refund. Do not use these people again. Please warn others before they lose a day!

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Im sorry to did not enjoyed your tour, the tour is advertised as 4 hours highlight of Montreal with a *driver guide* I tried to find your reservation to know who was your driver guide but didn't find any Frank _M, you can mail us at carservice@mac.com to let us know more details and driver info, thank you.

Jeanne_L, Oct 2025
Disappointed that the driver was not a guide and did not provide much historical information. He did take us many interesting places and was very courteous

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Im glad you enjoyed your tour, your driver Elie was not a certified guide and we never sold the tour as it but enough qualified to do half day highlight of Montreal.

Enthusiastic intro to Montreal

Erika_P, Sep 2025
The five of us took this tour at the end of our cruise before being dropped off at the airport. Christian did a great job sharing with us what makes Montreal special. It was a nice sampling of Montreal history, culture, nature, and architecture. Christian's enthusiasm for his job and city clearly shows!

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Im glad you had enjoyed your Montreal Highlight tour with Christian.

Guide was Horrible

Linnie_R, Sep 2025
Our guide was Christian. He used the F word at least 15 times during the trip. He also accused Muslims of being lazy and wanting everything free. Then he started on our President Trump. He said he couldn’t believe anyone would vote for him because he was “bad, bad, bad”. Then he started naming super liberal socialists as people who should be President. Finally, I told him to shut his mouth and not say another word. We did not appreciate being lectured on what was suppose to be a tour of Montreal As for as the tour went, it seemed very disorganized. The only thing we enjoyed was the beautiful homes on the “mountain” with the spectacular view. The rest was wandering around Montreal He should not be allowed to guide any further trips.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, of course cursing, politics and racist comment are not part of a tour, there will be internal investigation about your allegations.

Great way to see a lot in a few hours

Melissa_B, Jul 2025
We had a one day layover in Montreal and this was a great way to see many of the beautiful sights of the city that are spread out. We weren’t prepared for Montreals traffic, which nobody can control, but it did slow us down a little so be aware of that. Our driver John was great and accommodating and full Of facts and info!

Montréal Private tour with Patrick

Michelle_M, Jul 2025
Patrick was our tour guide and we would highly recommend him for anyone booking this tour. He was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. The Cadillac SUV was beautiful and clean and we felt like we really saw Montréal after the tour ended. We give this tour a five star review and it was well deserved!!

Montreal car tour

Milton_J, May 2025
In car most of the time. I would have liked the guide to go out and explain more of the attractions. I would like to get out of car more and have guide help with photos

Sight Seeing in Comfort

alishapenick, Dec 2024
Our tour guide Salem was courteous, punctual and knowledgeable about all things Montreal. He gave us a local perspective on Montreal’s culture and history. It was a perfect, low stress and comfortable way to see a lot of the city in a short period of time - especially in single digit winter weather. Highly recommend the experience and guide.

Exceptional
