Montreal at Twilight
We did the twilight tour soon after we arrived. It was a beautiful cool summer evening. Ronny was extremely knowledgeable about Montreal’s history and made it more interesting by connecting it to present day. This combined with an e-bike tour the following day gave us the opportunity to cover the city highlights in a short period of time. It was a wonderful visit.

Evening tour
The tour was in the evening and unfortunately it was rainy and windy. The guide was lively and tried to make it fun, but overall was less than we had hoped for.
Operator response
Hello Diane, We’re sorry to hear you didn’t fully enjoy the experience. You gave the rain 3 stars, and it's fine by us, but the tone felt a little harsh. We’re always open to respectful feedback to improve.

One of Our Fave Tours of the Trip!
Ronny was awesome! Was the shortest tour of our trip but was loaded with info and felt the most worthwhile. Ronny has a vibrant storytelling style of guiding and wove all the threads together like a beautiful tapestry. The evening setting was lovely. Would absolutely recommend a tour with Ronny.

Amazing!
Michel was amazing! He was a true historian and lover of Montreal. He was open to hearing about where we wanted to go most because we were a small group. If you’re in Montreal and thinking about doing a tour with Michel, it’s a must!

Michel was great!
Michel was knowledgeable, personable and humorous. He made everyone comfortable and got the whole group to open up and enjoy the tour and each other. Highly recommended. Also it was a heat wave in Montreal when we were there and the nighttime tour was a smart move.
