Must do!

We had a fantastic time on this tour. It was appropriate both for those who knew a lot about tea already and those who didn't. She was accommodating to my mom's special needs (mobility impaired). I thought I knew about Japanese tea, but have never experienced anything like the tea service we went to. Highly recommended.
FANTASTING activity for friends!!! - Afternoon Tea: Le Total

If I could, I'll give more than 5 stars!
This tour was a gift for my best friend's Birthday and it was absolutely outstanding and way beyond anything I had expected! Melissa is an amazing guide and helped us discover many new locations which we would for sure enjoy many more times in the future. All the places we have visited were extraordinary and we really enjoyed learning about the story behind each location (even met with the owners). Melissa also taught us about Montreal's history in-between the locations we were visiting and the whole tour felt like a little adventure as we walked through areas we've never been before (we are from Montreal too).

The communication was super fast and the customer service was extremely good. We now plan on experiencing all of the remaining tours as Melissa's company was highly enjoyable and we can't wait to learn more about our city.

Thank you!
Soooooo good! Melissa was very kind and we are so glad to have had this experience!

Soooooo good! Melissa was very kind and we are so glad to have had this experience! We were a group of 7 and everyone seemed to have a very good tour. Thank you again.

This is my second tour with Melissa of Round Table Tours and I hope to go on many more!
She is an outstanding guide, with a great ability to create an engaging srory about a particular food and draw us in to the narrative.
Her tea tour is amazing. My family group ranged from my young adult nephew and his girlfriend to my 85 year old mother with dementia and every one of us had a fabulous time.
Melissa went out of her way to get answers to questions and make sure everyone enjoyed themselves.
I will absolutely be booking another tour with Melissa the next time I'm in Montreal.
An absolute MUST for anyone!!

We had an absolutely wonderful time learning and trying different teas and treats in the area. This was the most enriching experience we have had on a trip and we were so blessed to have Melissa leading the way. We were joined by one other couple which worked out quite nicely for all the stops we made to keep it an intimate and knowledge-filled tour.

Every stop was just wonderful. Walking and seeing the sites coupled with the amazing tea and treats could not be beat. We came home from our trip to Montreal with a new appreciation for Montreal, tea, and the whole entire world.

If you are on the fence, do it. This tour is not to be missed.
