Montreal stretches over a 50km long island and the old city is located on the shores of San Lorenzo. In just 375 years it was founded by French missionaries in 1642, 3 centuries of history that made Montreal the first major commercial center in Canada.

Un paseo agradable por la parte vieja de la ciudad, con anécdotas y otros datos curiosos. Fue muy entretenido, se nos pasó volando el tiempo, sin duda repetiríamos y totalmente recomendable.

Como solo estábamos los cuatro de la familia en el tour, la experiencia fue más enriquecedora, ya que la información era más personalizada, podíamos hacerle más preguntas y el trato era más directo
