Wonderful experience

Christina_M, May 2025
Wonderful exhibits. Would have liked the guides to be more interactive with the visitors. The story of Canada was so informative and insightful

Great Inuit experience and much more

Valentin_S, May 2024
A great location to experience a short walk through Canada’s history, from early Inuit period to current days. The Grand Hall with all those Totem Pols is just incredible! Definitely worth a visit (have at least 4 to 5 hours available in your schedule).

Bad experience

My tickets were not delivered on time for visit. Had to purchase tkts at counter. Waiting for reimbursement

Amazing Day

Gigantic museum with a wonderful First Nation memorabilia. Huge totems and excellent Canadian history. I missed a good book section in the souvenir shop.

On ne voit pas passer le temps : le summum pour un musée d’histoire ! Très beau et bien fait. Une journée ne suffit pas si on veut vraiment tout voir et écouter !

L'intérêt des deux...

Marise_P, Mar 2024
L'intérêt des deux enfants (11 et 7 ans) pour l'histoire du Québec! La pertinence des commentaires faits par les guides!
