Black & Jazz History of Montreal with Ruby Roy Licensed Guide

★ 5.0 (2 reviews) · By Ruby Roy

As the only licensed Montreal expert guide, woman of colour in the province of Québec. I will take you through the discovery of Montreal's Historical Black history from the 1600s to the present. My 25+years of knowledge, experience , research will be shared about Montreal's unique black history, Jazz history, the period of prohibition, the role of the railway in the story. I began giving Black history, Jazz and neighbourhood tours in 1997.
Only guests and their own party will be on the tour
The pace will be adjusted to guest pace, it's a leisurely tour
As a private tour, guests have full access to their guide during 2 hours
I will provide guides with suggested reading material if interested, activities, recommendations on places to eat
Compliments well with my two Old Montreal Walking Tours where we can continue the discussion and discovery of Montreal's Black heritage.
