“It was an exhilarating experience! I’m glad I booked this tour. If you want an adrenaline rush experience, this is highly recommended.

It wasn't touristy, and I learned even more than I already knew about MTL. I loved how arts and culture were embedded into this tour. 10/10 I'm from Toronto and been to MTL before, so if your from out of town, this is a great way to get better acquainted with the city and culture.”

They helped us reschedule our tour due to poor weather conditions. Our tour guide, Mike, was knowledgeable and made the tour fun.

“Our family of 7 (kids ages 9 to 17) absolutely loved this experience. They equipped us all very well and gave great suggestions on bike routes to take. They were incredibly patient and very professional. We didn’t take a tour since we had young kids and weren’t sure they would want all of the history but I would consider that for the future. The tour guides seemed flexible and knowledgeable. Exploring the city on bike was so much easier than navigating parking, etc and allowed us to be curious and responsive to what we saw and wanted to explore.”
