Step into one of Old Montreal's most striking buildings, a former grand bank turned café, for a classic smoked salmon bagel that kicks off your Secret Food Tours experience in style. From there, wander the cobblestone streets to a local épicerie for a Québec cheese and charcuterie board full of regional flavor (on select days, this is swapped for something sweet instead). Next comes our secret stop: a spot locals love and most tourists never find. Tucked into a historic street, this Greek taverna serves authentic Mediterranean dishes: think fresh salads, house-made dips, and grilled specialties. What exactly you'll taste stays a surprise until you're there. No trip through Montreal is complete without poutine, so we keep it classic: crispy fries, squeaky cheese curds, and rich gravy. The province's top comfort food! We finish with two stops side by side: real Québec maple syrup straight from the forest, followed by a scoop of maple syrup ice cream.

Go! You Won't Regret It!
Fabulous!! We have done many foods tours in multiple countries and I can say Eric and this tour ranks right up with the top. Why? It boils down to the Guide first and foremost. The location is certainly key as the guide has to have a good location to represent but Eric brought knowledge, history and local flavor that only comes from a local resident over time. Thank you Eric for such an enjoyable authentic afternoon. It was a pleasure.

Why this scores 85
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Old Montreal Guided Food Tour with 6+ Local Delicacies Tastings: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Montreal.
How much does Old Montreal Guided Food Tour with 6+ Local Delicacies Tastings cost?
+
Prices start at $116 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Montreal usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Old Montreal Guided Food Tour with 6+ Local Delicacies Tastings take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Montreal is not rushed.
Is Old Montreal Guided Food Tour with 6+ Local Delicacies Tastings worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 85 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 835 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Montreal, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Old Montreal Guided Food Tour with 6+ Local Delicacies Tastings?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Old Montreal Guided Food Tour with 6+ Local Delicacies Tastings suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Old Montreal Guided Food Tour with 6+ Local Delicacies Tastings?
+
Around 292 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Montreal can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Montreal and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Old Montreal Guided Food Tour with 6+ Local Delicacies Tastings start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Montreal within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Montreal?
+
On Outty we rank every Montreal experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Old Montreal Walking Tour | Small Group (Max 10) | by MTL Detours, The Original Montreal Mural Arts Tour by Spade & Palacio, The Original Old Montréal Walking Tour by Guidatour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Montreal?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Montreal?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
