Jean-Yves Rehby

(Translated) This is not the kind of attraction for which we would make the trip especially in Montreal. But the recreation of a bourgeois interior of the Victorian era is neat, the guides are well informed and very comfortable in their role, the seasonal entertainment for the Christmas period is very interesting. Right in the middle of old Montreal, this visit fits well into a day of discovery. (Original) Ce n'est pas le genre d'attraction pour laquelle on ferait le voyage spécialement à Montréal. Mais la recréation d'un intérieur bourgeois de l'époque victorienne est soignée, les guides sont bien renseignés et très à l'aise dans leur rôle, l'animation saisonnière pour la période de Noël est fort intéressante. En plein milieu du vieux Montréal, cette visite s'insère bien dans une journée de découverte.
