A highlight of our trip! - This tour was the highlight of our weekend in Montreal! Our guide was very knowledgeable and engaging, and our small group of 8 people had a lot to discuss as we walked from site to site. Really enjoyed learning some of this unique history.

Fun, informative tour - This was an informative and fun tour! I really liked our guide and left with a lot more knowledge of Jewish history in Montreal. It was especially beautiful with the fall foliage! There were about 10 people on our tour, some from out of town and some from Montreal.

Knowledgeable guide - Guide was very knowledgeable. The tour group was too large and it made it difficult to hear her some of the time. There is not a lot of walking.

Interesting subject matter - Very informative, and interesting to compare to today vs old. The tour wasn’t as engaging as hoped, and seemed to be a memorized monologue.
