Our guide, Julie, was fabulous! She stopped us at good intervals to give regional history and allow for photo opps. The pace was perfect for me as someone who doesn’t bike much and is a bit out of shape. We stopped in a beautiful park to enjoy nutrient dense but delicious cookies she brought for us. Highly recommend this tour.

This was AMAZING! Our guide was Mike. Love this company. They are super nice and have a very "locals" feel. We were a group of 3 (family) and we ended up being the only ones on the group tour on a Thursday morning. Another group passed us on our stop on the pier and they had like 15 people in their group. I was so happy to be doing our bike tour with this company! Also this "other side" tour is really great because you ride over bridges and go to interesting places. Afterwards you get the bikes until 6 pm if you want. We took our bikes in the afternoon to the Atwater market down the Lachine Canal and that was such a great experience, too. 10/10 highly recommend doing your bike tour with this company. Also, the bike tour was the right choice of things to do in Montreal. You see so much of the city and get around WAY faster than being in any car, bus, etc. The cars can't go very fast on these streets. You to way faster on the bikes. It's such a bike-able city.

Really enjoyed the Architecture tour led by Michael. Was highly recommended by a colleague, and it was well worth it. Very informative, reasonable pace, considerate details (clear safety primer, water and mid-trip snack provided, washroom stops). The use of the bikes for the remainder of the day is a great add-on, with helpful maps and suggested routes provided. Was a highlight of our trip for adults and 15 year old alike.

The tour took us all around the two island parks which honestly I didn't even know I wanted to visit so we completely enjoyed it. We went to the site of the world fair, the casino, the race track, an amazing garden with sculptures. However, if you are expecting an "architecture tour" rather than a sight-seeing tour, you might be disappointed. There was minimal architecture information. Also, this company mixes ebikes with regular bikes which may be problematic if you get regular bike riders who can't keep up. We took ebikes and loved them because they are such a breeze. The regular bike riders did slow us down and I could see that being a problem in some groups. I will sign up for an ebike only group next time I do a bike tour.
Hi. Thank you for your review and perfect rating regarding our Montreal guided bike tour service. Your comments are highly appreciated. Regarding architectural content of the tour, I strongly recommend readers to read on our website complete description of this tour. It is not a 100% architectural tour and not sold as such. As for the mix of regular bikes and ebikes during our tours, our experience shows that it works well since being a tour, there is a lot of stops for comments. Thank you for selecting Ça Roule Montreal * Montreal On Wheels for your bike activity in our city. Best regards.
Very nice experience with very interesting people and things to see ………. Excellent guide. Very knowledgeable and informative

This e-bike tour was so fun. Mike, our guide, focused on architecture to show us sights and give us the history of Montreal. It was so interesting and the pacing was perfect. The bike company made everything easy. As a bonus, they let us keep the bikes until 6pm, so we were able to extend our sight-seeing by bike for several more hours. I highly recommend this tour and Mike in particular!
