Where do I begin?! Tour Guide's personality shines from the moment you are met. You can tell guide has a passion for Montreal and the local food within it. Tour guide has many great suggestions and some of the places they bring you to, you would never think to go to yourself (and of course some of the ones you do :)). Definitely go with a empty stomach, you'll definitely get your fill (literally) and even have some leftovers! Definitely book a tour with confidence know you're going to have a good time, and a full belly!

I booked this tour for my visit in Montreal. I attended food tours before in other cities, but this tour is beyond my expectation. The guide is very nice and took us to various places, not just for food tasting, but also introducing the origins of food and histories of the restaurants. For example, guide told us the difference between Montreal style bagel and other bagels and the origin of poutine. As we were walking along the way, tour guide told us a lot about the community and the city, such as the shaping and developing of districts, architectural characteristics, histories of local shops and even interesting things happened in neighbourhood. Our tour is not just for food tasting but also for shop visiting. For example, the famous salad bar opened in a boutique, a laundromat where everything is pink, and so on. This is a wonderful experience.

The tour of Montreal was an absolute highlight of my recent trip here! Not only was the guide able to provide interesting historical tidbits and anecdotes about the various places we went to, but the food was delicious and plentiful (expect leftovers if you go on a private tour - not a bad thing). In addition, the guide was very personable and it was delightful to just have a conversation with. I would definitely recommend this food tour.

There’s more food than walking on this tour. In fact you’ll need to keep walking to make up for the fact that you would tried half a dozen different Montreal food experiences. The guide was a lovely and enthusiastic, passionate about the places chosen to take us to and Montreal city.

Guide was amazing and provided so much information, and was just super sweet and professional and made sure my son felt really special for his birthday because that is why I booked the tour for his birthday. Guide made the whole trip to Montreal worth it. And the food was great as well would definitely recommend this tour to others, it was a lot of fun.
