Discover Old Montréal’s gems with a free winter scavenger hunt!

Guidatour and the SDC du Vieux-Montréal have joined forces to offer Montrealers and visitors a free scavenger hunt that leads you through the pretty streets of Old Montréal, and presents all sorts of fun challenges.

This walking tour is the perfect opportunity to get some fresh air with family or friends, and rediscover Montréal’s historic district and all its treasures. You can choose between a regular version or a family version of the scavenger hunt.To fully appreciate the activity, Angèle Vermette, president of Guidatour, suggests you dress warmly, let yourself fall for the charms of the neighbourhood, and just have fun!

The circuit, including all the games, questions and challenges, takes about an hour. The activity is open every Saturday during the month of December 2022. Departures take place between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. from Place Royale, and the circuit ends at Place Jacques-Cartier. Bilingual hosts from Guidatour greet participants at the start of the circuit and hand out the necessary material. No reservations are required. Simply show up at the departure point during the hours the activity is open.

Enjoy!
