    Best for walkers interested in buildings

    Pierre was extremely knowledgeable about Montreal and the local architecture and history of the city. He welcomed questions and provided good responses. I loved the pointers that he shared as to places to visit for food and shopping in Montreal. The walk does cover a lot of ground and so best for those who walk regularly.

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your message Susan! We will pass along your message to Pierre and to our whole team at Tour Travel & More. Please let us know if you need anything else. We are at your full disposal. Thank you once again. The Tour Travel & More Team

    Private Walking Tour of old Montreal with licensed tour guide: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Montreal.

    How much does Private Walking Tour of old Montreal with licensed tour guide cost?

    +

    Prices start at $354 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 Private Walking Tour of old Montreal with licensed tour guide take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 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 Private Walking Tour of old Montreal with licensed tour guide worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Montreal, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Walking Tour of old Montreal with licensed tour guide?

    +

    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 Private Walking Tour of old Montreal with licensed tour guide suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Walking Tour of old Montreal with licensed tour guide?

    +

    Around 0 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Walking Tour of old Montreal with licensed tour guide 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.

    What is included in Private Walking Tour of old Montreal with licensed tour guide?

    +

    Included: Pick up in central hotel or central meeting point; and Private licensed tour guide for 2 hours. Not included: Entrance fees; Food and drinks; Transportation; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Private Walking Tour of old Montreal with licensed tour guide include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 2 listed pickup locations in and around Montreal. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Private Walking Tour of old Montreal with licensed tour guide offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Walking Tour of old Montreal with licensed tour guide?

    +
