Excursion vélo / vélo électrique : Plateau, Mile-End, Marché Jean-Talon par Fitz
Description
Nos promenades guidées en petit groupe sont une activité amusante et sécuritaire et un excellent moyen de sortir, d'explorer et de créer des liens. Cette visite authentique va au-delà du centre-ville, dans les quartiers branchés et incontournables de Montréal, pour vous faire découvrir les coulisses du mode de vie décontracté de la ville. Nous vous installerons sur un vélo de qualité qui est un véritable plaisir de rouler, puis vous mènerons sur un parcours en boucle le long de pistes cyclables peu fréquentées, de rues calmes et de charmantes ruelles vertes. C'est notre visite préférée du personnel. Vous traverserez le Plateau et le Mile-End, admirerez le Mont-Royal depuis Outremont, puis roulerez vers les charmants quartiers de Little Italy et de Petite-Patrie. Votre Guide est l'un de nos ambassadeurs montréalais spécialement formés, là pour partager les histoires des Montréalais et de leur culture, des héros musicaux aux icônes culinaires en passant par les résidents et les étudiants ouverts d'esprit qui envahissent ces rues aujourd'hui. Même si vous vivez ici depuis des années, vous découvrirez quelque chose de nouveau.

We had an outstanding experience with Fitz Bike Tours! Before our trip, I called because we were traveling with our 11- and 15-year-old sons and wanted a ride that would be interesting, safe, and enjoyable for the whole family. The staff member I spoke with recommended the Hidden Gems Tour and even helped us book it over the phone. After taking an Uber to the meeting point, we were greeted by our guide, Martin, who was warm, joyful, and welcoming from the very first moment. He learned everyone's names, walked us over to a map to orient us to Montreal, and shared just enough history to get us excited before we even got on our bikes. The bikes and helmets were in excellent condition, and Martin made sure everyone was properly fitted before we headed out. Throughout the ride, he was incredibly attentive, always making sure our family was safe, keeping the group together, and checking that no one got left behind. As parents riding in an unfamiliar city with kids, we really appreciated that. The tour itself was fantastic. We rode through beautiful, colorful neighborhoods and stopped at places that were both historically significant and genuinely interesting. One highlight was visiting one of Montreal's oldest bagel shops! Martin's love for the city he grew up in was contagious. He wasn't just reciting facts—he was sharing stories and showing us the places that make Montreal special. He also gave us about 30 minutes to explore Jean-Talon Market, where we had the most incredible sorbet and some unbelievably fresh cherries. Between the food, the neighborhoods, the history, and the people-watching, we found ourselves falling in love with Montreal. Our 11-year-old had a blast. Our 15-year-old loved it. My husband and I appreciated all the history and local insight. By the end of the tour, we were already talking about coming back—and even joking that maybe one of our sons should go to university here someday! Martin is an exceptional guide and a wonderful ambassador for Montreal. If you're looking for a bike tour that feels authentic, safe, and memorable, I can't recommend Fitz Bike Tours highly enough.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed and heartfelt review! Hearing how much your whole family enjoyed the Hidden Gems Tour—from your 11- and 15-year-old sons to you and your husband—absolutely makes our day. Finding an activity that genuinely engages both kids and parents can be a balancing act, so we are thrilled that the phone recommendation hit the mark! Martin is truly special. As a Montréal native, his genuine love and enthusiasm for his hometown shine through in everything he does. He will be so touched to read your kind words about his warm welcome, his safety-first approach, and the way he brought the city's stories to life. Stopping for fresh bagels, exploring the vibrant flavors at Jean-Talon Market, and soaking in the colorful neighborhoods is what exploring Montréal is all about! And we love to hear that you're already considering one of our local universities for the future—Montréal would be lucky to have them! Thank you for trusting us with your family's time in the city. Martin and the rest of the Fitz team hope to welcome you all back for another ride next time you visit! 🚲✨
My wife and I have found that a bike tour is a nice way to see the neighborhoods of a city so this is a regular thing for us. We got to see a number of interesting areas and eat a bit of food as well. The guide was informative. If you are looking for a real bike ride this is probably not for you but if you want a relaxing tour this is it.
Thank you so much for the great review! It's awesome to hear that bike tours are a travel tradition for the two of you and that our ride hit the mark for exploring the local neighborhoods and grabbing some tasty bites. You nailed the description—our focus is definitely all about a relaxed, easygoing pace so everyone can soak in the atmosphere, history, and food without turning it into a workout! We are so glad you enjoyed the tour with your guide. Thank you for riding with us, and we hope to welcome you both back for another fun ride next time you're in Montréal! 🚲✨
Excellent bike tour. Saw parts of Montreal we wouldn’t have seen without our guide Darren’s knowledge. He was very informative and kept the group at a relaxed pace. Really enjoyed the market and the bagel shop. Thanks for a great afternoon.

Amazing bike tour in the heart of Montreal with Andre our guide. He knows his stuff, adds humour to the stories and is very proud of his city. The tour captures the heart and soul of the area and the bikes and route were great to travel on - there is even a stop for the famous St. Viateur bagels. I would 100% recommend booking with Fitz and seeing what the city has to offer!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a fantastic review! **André** is going to be absolutely thrilled to read your wonderful words! He is deeply passionate about Montreal, and his love for the city, paired with his knowledge and great sense of humor, makes his tours so special. We are also delighted to hear that you enjoyed the route and the bikes, and of course, stopping for fresh, warm **St-Viateur bagels** is always a crowd favorite! There’s truly no better way to recharge while taking in the heart and soul of the city's neighborhoods. Thank you again for your 100% recommendation and for choosing to ride with us here at Fitz. We would love to welcome you back onto the bike paths next time your travels bring you to Montreal! Safe travels!
5 stars all day. This was INCREDIBLE. Small group, bikes were super comfortable and made the hills effortless, and Fitz's team knows how to show you the Montreal most tourists miss. We rode through the Plateau with those beautiful colorful houses (like in the photo), Mile-End for street art, Little Italy and finished at Jean-Talon Market. Great mix of history, culture and food stops - including the famous Montreal bagel. Rodrigo was knowledgeable, professional, set an easy pace and made this 100% worth it. If you do one tour in Montreal, do this one.
Thank you so much for this incredible 5-star review! **Rodrigo** is going to be absolutely thrilled to read your amazing feedback! He takes so much pride in leading our guests off the beaten path, and hearing that his deep knowledge, professionalism, and easy pace made the tour 100% worth it means the world to us. We are so glad you loved the itinerary! Exploring the vibrant streets of **The Plateau** with its iconic colorful houses, diving into the art scene in **Mile End**, rolling through **Little Italy**, and wrapping up at the lively **Jean-Talon Market** is truly one of the best ways to taste, see, and feel the real energy of Montreal. And of course, stopping for a fresh local bagel is a essential tradition we love sharing! It’s also wonderful to hear that our bikes kept you riding in total comfort and made those Montreal hills feel completely effortless. Thank you again for your highest recommendation and for choosing to discover the city with us here at Fitz. We would love to welcome you back onto the bike paths whenever your travels bring you back to Montreal! Safe travels!
