In de schaduw van de berg: wandeltocht door de Joodse geschiedenis van Montreal
Beschrijving
In the Shadow of the Mountain neemt je mee door de wijk Plateau en volgt de wortels van de Joodse gemeenschap van Montreal aan de hand van Jiddische en Engelse literatuur uit het begin van de 20e eeuw, met als hoogtepunt het wereldwijde succes van Leonard Cohen. Aan de hand van poëzie en romans onderzoekt deze tour hoe Joden hun leven in Montreal voor ogen hadden en contrasteert deze utopische visies met de realiteit van het leven in de stad. Naast een Expert museum Gids ontdek je ook de manieren waarop de Joodse gemeenschap van Montreal het Plateau hun thuis maakte aan de voet van de berg, en een blijvende impressie maakte op het landschap.

Fantastic tour. Great guide. My daughter and had a wonderful time. Learned so much . Fascinating. Succinct and to the point. Highly reccomend !
I visited Montreal approx 9 years ago and absolutely LOVED it! This trip, not so much, and I likely won't be going back. The construction (ongoing according to locals) has literally taken over the entire city, and the streets are messy, smelly, and impassible. I took so few pics since nothing was that picture worthy- just these few of the filth along my walk. What is supposed to be a nice walk through the city is not that at all. Sorry Montreal- I'll be heading somewhere different next trip to Canada!
The tour guide never showed up so cannot give a review of this tour. Was there 30 minutes prior and waited for 10 additional minutes to no avail.

Really can’t give it any stars as the tour guide never showed up . We were at the designated spot 15 minutes prior to start time and stayed for an additional 10 minutes.

The tour of Montreal's old Jewish section was fascinating. Avery was an excellent guide and was quite knowledgeable and personable. We got a real sense of what life was like for Jews in Montreal in the early and mid 1900s. The tour was an easy two hour walk.
Avery was fantastic! A really great tour guide. Thanks for an excellent tour and experience. We appreciated it a lot...
Very knowledgeable guide. Interesting subjects and well planned tour. The guide was very nice, patient , and answered all my questions
Really appreciated the breadth of our tour guide's experience. The tour was engaging and a nice way to spend a morning.
Learning about all the different early Jews, who helped shape Montreal. Our guide was well prepared and knowledgeable about the history of Montreal.
