The tour went to plan, the pick up was prompt and reliable. The tour guide was very helpful and knowledgeable. The places we visited were most interesting and I learned a lot about Montreal.

This tour gives you a chance to visit some sites with limited time to wander around, which you might not otherwise get an opportunity to do, especially at those sites such as the Bio-dome that are a little further away from the heart of the city. Plus, the view from the viewing deck at the Olympic Tower is fantastic!

We loved it, the guide was really good, nice and helpful. We've seen things that we wouldn't by ourselves.

The staff was very knowledgeable about the history of Montreal. I liked the stops in Old Montreal, and the trip to the top of the Olympic Stadium. What fabulous views! The tour was not rushed, with adequate time for stopovers. The Insectarium and botanical Gardens were fabulous, but can't all be seen in one trip. I wish St. Josephs Oratory was in the tour, however there was road repair in the area. Thumbs up for this tour!

The only real complaint I had was that it was extremely hot on the bus while waiting for everyone to load each time. I wish the operator would have turned on the A/C during that time period.

We were looking forward for the ride on a cable car up to the Olympic Tower's observatory for spectacular views of Montreal. For some reason that did not happen. The guide who was nice and informative kept talking about the incident the previous week about the cable car being stuck. We were really upset about that since that should be included in the tour. When another member of the group asked the guide about it saying she will pay for her own ticket since they did not get the tickets for us the guide told her that if she gets stuck the group will not wait. We spent 1 hour and 30 mins in the Olympic Park just to eat lunch and looking at some displays. The bathroom door at the back kept on opening, we told the guide but nothing was done about it. The person sitting in the last row had to hold it, although he did not really complain about it. Spot to pick up tour was convenient.

Just cruising by buildings is not really a tour. And the trip was was too long not to include a snack break. We passed several hot dog stands; even those would have been fine. The bathroom on the bus was filthy and had no toilet tissue. I loaned facial tissues to everyone! This tour needs some rethinking. Maybe it should be longer, with a snack break and a few stops somewhere earlier. Guests from the USA don't usually eat lunch at 2:00 p.m., and that should be considered. Being forced to budget our time in the biodome so that we could get lunch in the time frame allowed was not practical, especially since we didn't know how long it would take to get lunch. I would not recommend this particular tour for these reasons. The guide, however, was very knowledgeable and friendly.
