Old Montreal Ghost Walking Tour

This was was my first visit to Montreal, so I really wanted to experience as much of the city as possible in 3 short days. I love walking tours, and I was really excited for this one in a city I hadn't visited before. Our group's guide was Madame Morphine, and she was absolutely brilliant! A gifted natural storyteller, Madame Morphine brought us to lots of different historically significant spots around Montreal, and some spots that time has sadly forgotten but walking tours keep alive in our memories. Being from Dublin, it was great to hear the Irish ghost stories! We learned lots about the city and some of the characters that are part of its history. I won't give away all the tour info so as not to spoil it for you, but I'd encourage anyone to book this tour. You'll have a great time! Note for the tour company: If you have a guide of the month award or something similar, Madame Morphine would be a very worthy recipient. She made time to answer everyone's questions about the tour and the stories told during it, and she also helped with general touristy questions. She was knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly, and she made the tour really fun and engaging for all of us. I've since recommended this specific tour to lots of people :) Thank you.

I was genuinely excited to embark on the haunted ghost tour of Montreal, especially as we’ve enjoyed many similar experiences across the United States and beyond. With high expectations set by the enticing descriptions on the website, we anticipated an engaging evening filled with spine-tingling tales and eerie encounters. Unfortunately, our enthusiasm quickly faded. We ended up leaving a quarter of the way through the tour, as it became clear that the host lacked both the charisma of an experienced storyteller and a firm grasp on the narratives she was sharing. Instead of the ghost stories we were hoping for, what we received felt more like a history tour—one that was disjointed and poorly articulated. The details were often inaccurate, which detracted from the overall experience. The host's performance felt amateurish, as if it was only her first or second time leading the tour. While we understand that not every tour can be perfect, the lack of cohesion in the stories made it difficult to follow along. We hoped for chilling tales that would send shivers down our spines, but instead, we found ourselves underwhelmed by the sparse ghost stories and lacking excitement. While it’s possible that the tour may have improved after our departure, we ultimately decided that our time was worth more than enduring a lackluster experience. We had invested our money, yet the return was disappointing. For anyone seeking thrilling ghost stories and an engaging atmosphere, we would recommend passing on this tour. The organization seemed more focused on quantity than quality, as evidenced by the large group sizes and the evident lack of talent in the presentation. Save your time and seek out a more captivating experience elsewhere.

Walking tour très original, peu être fait en français ou en anglais. On découvre le vieux Montréal d’une autre manière et cela crée plein de souvenirs !
