We came here two days in a row because we were told to go on a tour to see half the museum. They close off most of it unless your with a tour guide which they only seem to do in french. Its about $20 per person small and we waited 2 hours for a tour to catch up to get into most of it.Don't bother

It was so interesting and fascinating to be guided by a local Wendat fellow who did the tour in French and was very courteous to do a personal version in English for me as I was the only non-French speaking person in the group.Be sure to purchase the 'full' pass that covers the museum, the long house, the house, and church to get a fuller perspective of the nation and their approach to life. We then went to the white water and falls which was a treat and a nice balance.

We visited and signed up for a tour which cost $43 for the two of us. We joined a group having a tour in English in the museum. Right from the start it was very slow delivered with no reference to the audience several of whom had more knowledge on certain aspects than the guide. We were given a very slow talk around a small limited collection. At least half the group started wandering round by them selves or sat on the seats and consulted their phones. This would have been a failing lesson if delivered to a school party! After at least 3/4 of an hour we reached the long house. Here we were fortunate and the group split and by accident we got with a group rather than the other tourists. A Huron lady took us into the long house and gave a very good account of life there which was interesting.The museum is very small.My tip would be to visit the History Museum ( was called the museum of civilization until recently) in Ottawa. Its half the price and has wonderful galleries incredibly well presented on the the history of Canada and in particular the part played by the First Nations. Its vast, has a stunning display of totem poles, as well as other interesting exhibitions. We were there for over two hours and could have spent longer.

we were here in the same day, when we visited the Traditional Site Huron and we missed the english guided tour. It is a wonderfully build hotel, with a museum and a restaurant. The staff is very kind, nice and gives you information, offering you all the options which you can choose in the area. The lobby of the hotel when you enter is giving you such a peace and quiet. Must visit and see!

We visited this small museum offering a free tour (in French at tour of 3pm). We enjoyed a good collection of artifacts; the staff being a member of the Huron, was very enthusiastic.

Visited the musée during our stay at the hotel. Good collection of artifacts and very knowledgeable staff. We did not want a tour guide so the staff went out of their way to show us the long house. This was really appreciated. Small gift shop in lower floor but since this is a boutique hotel, you can buy what you see in hotel.

We popped in to the museum for an hour before setting off on a hike, but it was long enough to read the history and enjoy the exhibits. The bit I liked best were the way marked trails with signs explaining how the Huron Wendat lived. Fascinating. Well worth a visit.

On our second visit to this small, well organized museum we learned a lot about the culture of the Wendats or Hurons. The materials on display are unique and in many ways different from what one can see at the ROC in Toronto, and they cover a lot of ground. We took a guided tour, which enabled us to see the newly erected longhouse (which is not accessible without a tour). Unfortunately the young man spoke rather problematic English, which made it difficult to follow his explanations. Overall I would suggest to only visit the museum along unless the guide speaks good English.

Small museum. Exhibits are at the quality you will find in major museums, just not enough of them. Luckily it was free on the day we visited. Did not take the tour so did not visit the long house.
