Who are we?

16/42 offers guided tours in Montreal, 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.

“We really appreciated Madeline, our guide, and the people who signed up to tour. Madeline took us for a two hour walk encompassing the history of Montreal, with maps to show to point out where we were going and what used to be there, beginning with before the Europeans arrived. She is cheerful and funny and loves her city. We just loved the expo. The other people who signed up were also very interesting and everyone enjoyed equally. Highly recommend”
