SURPRISES AND HIDDEN GEMS IN OLD MONTREAL
The Old Montreal sector is where our city was founded and began its development. It’s chock-full of history, great architecture, fun activities, and innumerable restaurants.
However, this tour focuses on the lesser-known aspects of Old Montreal. Not only will you take in 350 years of history and architecture on one square, you’ll also see hidden gems and hear fascinating stories not readily found in guidebooks.
Some of the unexpected topics that might come up: slavery in Montreal, fortifications, Prohibition, crocodiles, our common history with Detroit, Duluth and New York, the Syrian community, and many more surprising sights. All right in front of your eyes or under your feet—but that you might miss if exploring on your own.
