“Francis was an amazing tour guide there wasn’t a question about Montreal that he couldn’t answer. The driver Salle drove the bus smoothly through narrow Montreal streets. It was worth the money I felt as a newcomer to Montreal it’s the best way to be introduced to the city.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 2,760 reviews · 2 days · from $26

Montreal hop-on hop-off double-decker pass covers Old Montreal, Chinatown, Mount Royal, plus an optional 2-hour night tour for $26.

“We always use hop on buses in all cities we go to. Often it’s just a running commentary with headphones. We liked this one because we had personal guides. Did the loop twice over two days and had different stories and info. It was fun. We did notice on the first trip we saw amazing houses on Mount Royal. The second time they skipped that. Don’t know why? It was a shame for the people that didn’t get to see them. Overall we find it’s the best way to get an overview of a city and understand the layout.”

The added on Ice Hotel Experience was a plus and definitely worth doing. Perfect way to spend the day!”
