No visit to Montreal is complete without a walk through its Old City, arguably North-America’s most charming and well-preserved historical neighborhood. This 2-hour small-group tour is casual yet informative, with no two tours being the same. Our guides adapt the tour to the interests of their group and choose their favourite off-the-beaten-path stops. This walk is the perfect experience to begin your Montreal visit, both in summer and in winter.
This tour was carefully crafted to be fully enjoyable both in summer and in winter, with some extra indoor stops planned for the cold days. If you are booking for January, just don’t forget your gloves and those extra layers you’ll be alright!
