Good tour to see an overview of the city
Jules picked up at our old Montreal hôtel which was very nice. It was a group of only 8 people so that was great.
Jules has lived in Montréal his whole life so he’s well acquainted to tell his guests about his city.
He showed us many sights around the city. We got a good overview of the city. He told us many interesting facts.

Personal friends give a Guided Tour
Personal friends that drove us and planned a full day itinerary. We had only driven through or around Montreal. It seemed so daunting to do it on our own. We loved our experience but it was because of the security knowing they could navigate the complexity of this city

Great way to learn about the city!
Harald was so knowledgeable and so fun! He was really proud to share stories and information about Montreal. He knew just how much time to spend at each location so as not to bore us but managed to impart so much knowledge. We didn’t want the to tour to end! Harald made us laugh until we cried, especially when he was trying to enter the wrong vehicle!
