Montreal Elite Mile End Food Tour: Bagels, Bites & Stories
What your day looks like
Mile End is the kind of neighbourhood you don’t just visit, you feel it.

This is where Montreal slows down and shows you a more honest side of itself. On this small-group food tour, you’ll walk through the heart of Mile End with a local guide and taste the flavours that helped shape the neighbourhood.
