Excellent tour of Montreal both currently and historically

Our guide was exceptional. He was extremely knowledgeable about Montreal, both currently and historically. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Montreal. He gave us several excellent suggestions which we plan to take advantage of over the next several days of our stay in Montreal.

A unique, fantastic tour of Montreal.

Harald impressively introduced us to Montreal. It was interesting every second, and we heard, experienced, and saw much more than we could have imagined. Not only was his historical knowledge impressive, but also the way he conveyed it. We were absolutely thrilled! Huge compliment! We can only praise and recommend this tour and Harald in the highest terms.

Great tour and overview of Montreal

Harold was an excellent tour guide and sprinkled in lots of fun facts in with the historical teaching. St Joseph's Oratory tour was very special and we had lots of time to learn all about the building construction. I would highly recommend this tour as a great way to see the highlights of Montreal!
