Had a fantastic tour with Tom of the Plateau and Mile End areas of Montreal. Learned so much about the history, architecture and general facts. Also appreciated the two surprise food treats! Tom was a great guide who is clearly very passionate about what he does! Highly recommend this tour!

I am from Montreal and I learned a lot about the history of the Mile-end district and the Mont-Royal plateau, which I am less familiar with.
Our guide Marie-Helene was really interesting and passionate!! A pleasant walking tour in these beautiful neighborhoods. I recommend 💯💯

What a fantastic tour by Thom.
Comprehensive historic overview and using that while pointing out things during the tour. Enthusiastic guide that shows really interesting things without overloading it and adapted to the groups interest. And the snacks were yummy as well.
Thumbs up and a must do.

Company service was excellent. Our guide, Thomas, led us on a memorable tour of these colorful neighborhoods of the city. We're in our 70's. The pace was comfortable. A five star experience.

Best tour guide ever!! Marie-Helene was charming, knowledgeable, and generous. The tour was invigorating (it’s a lot of walking, about 4 miles), but we had great weather and it was so interesting. Shows you everyday life in a lovely section of Montreal. Totally recommend!!

What an amazing way to experience the “real” Montreal! A very nice stroll through two of Montreal’s historical neighbourhoods. Lesley our guide was so friendly and so knowledgeable about the city, the culture, the history, etc… Super happy to explain all sorts of things and answer all of our questions. Loved exploring the back alleys. We also loved the local treats, yum! Would definitely recommend :-)
