Overview

This two-hour walking tour in Montreal covers approximately four kilometers through both Downtown streets and the RESO Underground City. The tour begins with a guided walk through key landmarks and areas at street level in Centre-Ville, Montreal’s downtown core. After exploring outdoors, the group enters the RESO, the world’s largest underground pedestrian network, to see its tunnels, architecture, and examples of public art. The route includes indoor and outdoor sections, several sets of stairs, and escalators, maintaining a steady city-walking pace. The tour is led by a certified guide holding the official City of Montréal permit. Groups are limited to a maximum of 10 participants to allow for a more personal experience. All guests must be at least 12 years old, and minors require an accompanying adult. The tour includes a printed list of local recommendations for places to eat, drink, and explore, provided by MTL Detours, a 100% locally owned and operated independent tour company based in Montreal. There is no hotel pickup or drop-off; participants must arrive at the meeting point independently. Gratuities are not included but may be given at the guest’s discretion.
