This tour was excellent—a feast for the eyes as well as full of fun facts about Montreal’s history. Christian was an engaging host who was born for this job.

This tour was a good pace and Ronny was very knowledgeable. We really appreciated the fact that we were the only ones booked on this tour and they still ran it. Thank you.

This was a great tour - fun, delicious, and learned a few things along the way. Our guide (Eric) was super knowledgable and went out of his way to ensure everyone had a good time. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to get a taste (literally) of what Montreal offers. So good. yum

A well presented tour of the market and crops grown in Canada. The maple syrup culture and product booth with samples was wonderful. Robert Christian offered great insights about immigration to Montreal, the resulting neighborhoods and cuisine.

This is a fun way to get to know about "every day" life in Montreal. Ronny our guide is very knowledgeable and had the added insight that someone who grew up in this part of the city can offer. The market is beautiful we enjoyed seeing and tasting the wonderful food. Also the tour of Little Italy was fascinating. We were lucky enough to have a resident give us her perspective on living in this charming neighborhood. There is a beautiful and historically significant church that just happened to be open the day we visited that was a bonus tour. We ended the morning with lunch at a Greek restaurant that we just stumbled upon the food was delicious very fresh and elegantly presented.

Excellent tour. Our guide, Christian, was very knowledgeable and friendly. He gave us lots of great information on both the history of Jean Talon Market as well as Little Italy. I would highly recommend the tour.

This was a great way to learn about unique vendors and interesting facts about Jean-Talon Market, Little Italy, & the history about the broader Jean-Talon neighborhood. I learned a lot of information which I would not have known if I visited by myself. Christian was our guide and he's a Montrealer at heart. He was also incredibly helpful with answering our questions about visiting the greater Montreal area. He even took the time to give us recommendations after the tour ended. If you're interested in the Montreal and Quebecois food scene, or want ideas of food items you can pack and bring back home, this is a great experience to book.

We loved our tour of little Italy and the market. We found great choices for food and treats from the unique shops. We also loved the stories about the history of the area.

It was very interesting and our guide was very energetic and enthusiastic. However, the ad claimed we would get to taste the food at various stalls which didn't happen. Apparently, you guys were supposed to update the ad but haven't. In any case, this counts as false advertising and I cannot give this more than an average score. In summation, great if you're looking for an interesting and informative your, but be disappointed if you're expecting samples from the vendors.
