This is one of our favorite tours in Montreal. We got to see more of the behind the scenes of Chinatown. If we didn't see what was behind the doors, I think we would have missed the best parts. The underground restaurants and custom drinks bars that weren't obvious from the street level. Most importantly, Melissa was fantastic. She was so knowledgeable about the history and she knows EVERYONE in Chinatown. Her background as a chef gave her great street cred.
