What you can expect

Step back in time as you stroll past picturesque squares, amazing edifices, and intriguing ports on this all-encompassing walking tour of Old Montreal. With an experienced guide leading the way, learn about the early days of the City of Spires and enjoy ample opportunities to capture beautiful photos.

Wander historic streets like Saint Paul, rue de la Commune, and Rue Saint Paul, the oldest thoroughfare in town, flanked by stunning architecture, galleries, and boutiques. At the charming square of Place Jacques-Cartier, take a break and admire the ornate facades of remarkable stone buildings. Nearby, snap photos of the looming bell towers of Notre-Dame Basilica, built over the course of 6 years in the 19th century.

Head towards the water and hear about the 17th-century fur traders that used the Old Port as you meander along the mighty Saint Lawrence River, imagining schooners stacked high with pelts. Continue on to discover more hidden courtyards and bustling lanes, picturing how this spectacular place went from rustic trading post to gorgeous metropolis.
