  • Le Plateau Mont-Royal
    Plateau Mont-Royal district - We'll concentrate our walk around the St-Laurent Blvd. axis and side streets. Meet your guide near Saint-Louis Square. See our Victorian-era architecture, our typical outdoor spiral staircases and learn about the history of the area. We'll explore some green alleys and admire some murals along the route. Learn about the waves of immigrants that shaped the area including the Jewish and Portuguese communities. Soak up the local vibes with plenty of happening cafes, boutiques and restaurants to spot on our walk. Walk past famous Schwartz's Deli. Summer brings pedestrian-only streets that are bustling day and night and that highlight the joie de vivre of Montrealers.
  • Mile End
    We explore one of Montreal's hippest and trendiest neighborhoods (recently named one of the coolest 'hoods in the world by TimeOut magazine!) We'll weave and zigzag through the streets of the neighborhood and enjoy the quaint residential architecture. Your local guide will explain the past and present of Mile End and will delve into fascinating stories about its working-class roots, its multiculturalism, its artistic flair and its current popularity as a tech hotspot. A little bit bohemian, a little bit industrial, a lot quirky & charming. Of course we'll see local institutions and landmarks like St-Viateur & Fairmount Bagel Shops, Cafe Olimpico, Wilensky's, St. Michael's & St. Anthony's Church, and many more. The tour will finish in the vicinity of Waverly/St-Viateur. Leave the tour armed with the MTL Detours List of Recommendations for things to eat/drink/see in the area and in Montreal.
