👍👍 We visited in Summer 2019 and it was the highlight of our trip to Quebec City/Levis. Seriously. My kids were 10 and 13 at the time and the Rally was great! English-only speakers you don't need to know French (google translate helped). This is a great puzzle adventure, plus it's outside in a beau...

👍 Wonderful place with keen people involved. Get your nerd on and learn something. Be careful driving and watch for wildlife. We saw 3 or 4 deer get hit on our way and hobble off I to the ditch with broken legs...broke our hearts. Drive carefully at night.

😠 I registered a Tuesday tour for my 10 and 3 years old children. My 10 year-old child was not able to come. I called and canceled her reservation in the morning. I brought my 3 year old and drove for 1.5 hour to get there. It supposed to be a 45 minutes drive. The weather was terrible, heavy snow, av...

😠 Trash! I was rejected from my childs grade 5 fieldtrip today over outdated vaccine passport. Not because I'm unvaccinated, simply because I won't prove it. The Province dropped it weeks ago but the Dam is still enforcing this nonsense. 60 primarily unnvaccinated school kids attended (because they ar...

When we arrived on-site, 15min before our scheduled guided tour, everything was closed, nobody was present. We tried to call and left multi...
