Montreal
These walking tours are how I’d meet Montreal for the first time, most of them inside Old Montreal’s compact grid. Two to three hours covers the basilica, the old port, and the squares in between. Check the language before you book; many departures run separately in English and French.
Transport yourself back in time on the History Walking Tour of Old Montreal, where secrets and stories await around every corner.
