Unforgettable Tour with Donovan King! - After 8 years of living in Montreal, with this tour I visited some places in Griffintown that I’ve never seen before. Our tour guide, Donovan King, perfectly explained to us about the history of Griffintown and what happened in this mysterious neighborhood in the past. Overall, the tour was a combination of visiting, walking, and having fun with an energetic, storytelling and cultural ambassador of the Irish community, which transformed the tour into a memorable experience.

Outstanding ! - My teenage daughter and I had such a great time on the Haunted Old Montreal tour ! We highly recommend it ! Anton is a very knowledgeable guide, he gave us a lot of historical and cultural information. He also has a good sense of humor. When you walk by monuments and buildings on your own you don’t usually think of ghosts, but this tour sheds a new light on Old Montreal. And if you think it’s not really frightening, stay on alert at all times, you could be surprised ! Thank you Donovan King for making this experience possible. Hopefully we can do the Haunted Pub Crawl and Griffintown next time we go to Montreal !

A memorable evening! - A very interesting activity from all points of view including a fascinating historical aspect. The dynamic animation of our escort Dominic by sharing with the group his expertise and various experiences made the visit extremely interesting.
