Home3-Hour Enchanting Historical Old Montreal Walking Tour With Expert Montreal Guide
Description
Step back to explore and discover Old Montreal's historical, hidden gems. Unlike other walking tours, these specialised ones will take guests and travellers to hidden gems. The walking tour is a leisurely walk exploring culture, history, and architecture with great storytelling full of humour. Old Montreal is a must for all first time even second-time visitors. Old Montreal is a city in Canada with its original architecture dating from the 1600s to modern times, Old Montreal was declared protected and heritage in 1965. The tour can be further customised and adapted to all age groups, guests who use walkers, wheelchairs, and the visually challenged. If you are a professional or amateur photographer, there are excellent times of day to take advantage of some great light. Guests who would like to have a guides visit the Notre Dame Basilica can purchase tickets online or on the same day. You will not have to wait in lines if you go inside with me. This tour complements my half-day neighbourhood discovery tour.
