Begin your tour with a pastry tasting from two of the best bakeries in Montreal. Then, wind your way through the city’s signature area, the Old Port.
Trace key developments and landmarks from its beginning in the 1600s to modern-day developments. Encounter both modern lifestyle and historical aspects. Focus on the socio-cultural impact of the Old Port on the city as a whole and its areas through centuries of boom and bust cycles, colonial history, transport innovations, and waves of immigration.
Explore little-known alleys, secret park squares, and cobblestoned back streets full of examples of superb architecture spanning from the early 1600s through modernist mid-century masterpieces.
As you move through the tour, get tips on where locals go for coffee, wine, cocktails, casual and fine dining (and which tourist traps to avoid).
