Overview

Your local host will kickstart your trip by leading you off the tourist trail down a secret network of cobblestoned streets to parts of Montreal your guidebook doesn’t even know about. Learn about the European roots of the city, and discover the unique Québécois food and peculiar shops loved by locals in Plateau and Mile End. Explore markets, where growers, butchers, and fishmongers display their best produce. Relax in the enchanting Mount Royal Park and practice your French as you amble up to one of Montreal’s most popular viewpoints to see the city.

Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host.

Reviews

Great intro to the city
roechamboe, 05-07-2022
Great introduction tour to the city. Customized to what you’d like to see and as much or as little walking as you want. We did about 7 miles but was able to see and become familiar in many different areas of the city that we plan on revisiting later in our trip. Our guide May was awesome.
