Who are we?

16/42 offers guided tours in Montreal, QC, aimed at locals and visitors alike. Our company was born from the desire to shake things up in the world of urban tourism through laid-back and stimulating experiences. We show you around the city on foot and in small groups (15 people max) so that everyone can make the most of their excursion. Our goal is to unveil the best the city has to offer through its history, culture, gastronomy, architecture, and Art de Vivre. 16/42 also offers biking tours and food tours upon request. Just reach out! All of our guides are graduates of the ITHQ (Tourism and Hospitality Institute of Quebec) and are licensed by the city. They are passionate ambassadors of Montreal, eager to tell you about the history, great and small, of our extraordinary metropolis and its multifaceted neighbourhoods.

“This walking tour is a must when arriving in Old Montreal. Our guide Louise was exceptional with her knowledge of Montreal’s history! Her enthusiasm in explaining the stories of the key important factors of its 400 year history in two hours made learning fun. We highly recommend this tour company!”
