About Kaléidoscope

Kaléidoscope is a Montreal tour company running neighbourhood walking tours. Its tours explore local history, architecture and culture, street by street. Rather than sticking only to the main sights, it helps people see the character of different parts of the city.

It suits curious locals, newcomers getting to know their new home and visitors who want more than a quick photo stop. A walking tour is a nice outing with friends or family, and a thoughtful gift for someone who loves history. Spring, summer and fall are lovely seasons for walking. Wear comfortable shoes, and save time afterward for a coffee or a meal in the neighbourhood.
