This was a really fun...

This was a really fun activity in Montreal. We had a wonderful tour guide Constance who was not only extremely knowledgeable but entertaining (we're still laughing 2 days later from her jokes). The tour is entirely in Old Port so you get to see the sights while walking. I highly recommend taking this tour if you have time in Montreal.

Creepy good time

Tour guide Natasha was fantastic. Great energy, solid delivery, questionable accent.

Operator response

Thank you so much for the fantastic review! I will be sure to pass your kind words along to Natasha. She will be absolutely thrilled to hear that her great energy and solid delivery hit the mark for your ghost walk! As for the "questionable accent"—when you're dealing with the ghosts, ghouls, and dark history of Old Montreal, we like to think a little mysterious vocal flair just adds to the creepy atmosphere! Montreal has a unique blend of cultures and history, and our guides certainly bring their own memorable charm to the storytelling. Thank you again for joining us for a creepy good time, and we hope to welcome you back for another hauntingly fun tour in the future! 👻

Ask for Carméla!

I was reluctant, but the staff, in full ghostly attire and makeup, sold me immediately. Carméla was our tour guide, and not only was she a great storyteller, she was thoroughly entertaining, laugh-out-loud funny, and never once broke character. Truly a night to remember. Can't recommend highly enough.

I will be thrilled to pass your fantastic feedback along to Carméla. She will be absolutely over the moon to hear that her storytelling, laugh-out-loud humor, and flawless dedication to her character made such a massive impression on you. Thank you again for braving the streets of Old Montreal with us, and we hope to welcome you back for another hauntingly fun experience in the future! 👻

Enthralled teenagers

Carmella was very animated and stayed in character throughout the whole tour. We had our three 13 years old grandchildren with us and they were enthralled with her and her stories the whole time! After they rated her a 10/10.

She puts so much passion into her animated performance, and she will be over the moon to hear about her official 10/10 rating from the grandchildren!

Highlight of our Montreal trip!

Our guide Constance was great. She was funny and informative and also knew how to keep the vibe creepy. She worked in some general history which kept the walk interesting. We had the private tour, which I would recommend completely because she'll be able to tailor to walk to your interests. The highlight of our trip!!
