Having a great time discovering a new place is priceless.
Montréal is incredibly rich in history, culture, gastronomy, art, and I'm sure you will want someone passionate about those subjects, with perfect English and/or French, to show you the best of it.

Being well-traveled, I have always enjoyed taking tours myself and crafted the tours I offer with the inspiration of the best experiences I've had all over the world. My great reputation as a tourist guide was forged by offering captivating historical details, combined with original material and a lot of humor.

Tour guide since 2008, I have realized very quickly that I loved offering private tours. They give me the opportunity to have a real connection with the guests. Talk about the subjects they care about, answer the question they had in mind when they chose Montreal as their vacation destination. Since then, I crafted excursions that would capture the imagination of travelers, while offering a lot of flexibility to accommodate their preferences.

You want to know a bit more about me, well, I LOVE food. To offer a plus value to my clients, I chose to specialize in food and beverage tours. Surprising snacks, specialties of Montréal, celebrity chef's restaurants, cooking tips, best supplies to bring back home or local producer delicacies, they all have a story and am eager to share them!

So whether you wish to have a romantic time touring the city, would like the kids to understand why Quebec speaks French or crave to discover the best tastes of the city, it will be my pleasure to be part of your Montreal experience.

* Please know that my husband and I are a foster family for dog(s) awaiting adoption. The car with which I offer my tours is cleaned before each tour but if you have an extreme allergy to pet hair please let me know so I can pay extra attention and make sure that the car (and myself!) are fur-free!

I am certified to guide in Montreal but not for the city of Quebec, therefore I do not offer Quebec tours or transfers.
I, unfortunately, do not offer airport pick-up nor drop-off. Ending the tour near a taxi stand is a great alternative.

During the tour, you will learn about the history and architecture of Montreal through anecdotes revealing the city's secrets!

This tour is appreciated by all types of travellers, whether you like a maximum of historical references, or want to know why Hollywood loves our city so much, (and see where the magic happened!), or to understand our architecture heritage or simply find the best spots to get a bite to eat!

Old Montréal will surely charm you, but visiting it with a passionate and entertaining guide will help you understand what makes this place so special.

** Covid-19 precautions: I have received two doses of the Pfizer vaccine and proof of vaccination is available upon request. Outside, the mask is no longer mandatory as 6 feet of social distancing will be always observed. **

Old Montreal Walking Tour

(captation of our email exchange for the tour description)
We will make the best of your day!
I think if we book my Botanical garden tour and swap the walking tour for stops at the Jean-Talon market + a poutine stop (probably La banquise, THE spot for poutine in Mtl!)
Would you like me to craft sort of an hybrid Botanical garden / food tour to include poutine, bagels, smoked meat (the two things Montreal is known for) and let's say a sweet treet at Jean-Talon market? I would make for a progressive lunch, eating bites along all day


As an urban farmer, initiated forager, farm-to-table militant and all-together nature lover, I decided to craft a tour with two of my favorite subjects: history, food and nature.
