Our tour was the same day as the Montreal Marathon which had closed many streets, but our guide did an amazing job of finding alternate routes to the various stops. We didn’t miss a thing! We especially enjoyed the warm bagels and visiting the Jean Talon market. The route was easy, and was mostly flat, but the e-bikes were appreciated on a few slight inclines and when we were getting tired.”
