What travellers are saying
- Sandra CBrookfield, WI155 contributionsThe Barbie expo was a delightful stop for any Barbie enthusiast. This exhibit focused not on Barbie's history but showcased various designer outfits on hundreds of dolls, featuring names like Bob Mackie and Calvin Klein. The free exhibit was definitely worth the visit. Keep in mind that it's located in an older downtown mall, which can be hard to find due to limited signage, but the stunning displays of Barbie make it worthwhile. However, the rest of the mall isn’t worth your time.Written October 19, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- phvi2617Anaheim, CA755 contributionsThe Montréal Jazz Festival is awesome! I attended a paid concert featuring the Django Festival All-Stars and a few free shows including Ekep Nkwelle and Oktopus Trio. All the performances were terrific. The event is very well organized, and there are plenty of food options. Although there were tons of people, it never felt crowded. If you're a music lover, this festival is worth a trip.Written July 16, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Asdum494 contributionsLoved the experience and enjoyed the music a lot. I like to relive those moments I enjoyed so much a child. I can clearly come back here and I don’t think I will be disappointed ever!Written July 27, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Avery ENew Jersey38 contributionsOld Montreal is a great place to visit if you are a History enthusiast. Its old cobblestoned streets are lined with buildings dating back to New France era. It’s easily accessible by metro and bus. Street parking is widely available and can range anywhere between $3-$6/hour. On average, you will have to pay $15-$20 for the day. However, the best way to see everything Old Montreal has to offer is through walking.
If you get to visit there during winter, there are several activities you can do with family: ice skating at the Old Port and see the Igloofest, which runs between mid-January and early-February. Other great attractions include Sir George-Étienne Cartier National Historic Site, Centre d'histoire de Montréal and the Bank of Montreal Museum.Written April 28, 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I went with my daughter, she had a blast, I had a good time.Written December 22, 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- RuthyWhite River Junction, VT2 contributionsThe Canadian GP is a wonderful race. Prepare for a reasonable wait for the Metro to get out on Race Day due to lots of excited fans like us!
We have Grandstand seats that accommodate my physical needs.
Everything about this race is fantastic EXCEPT they now allow general admission tickets along the fencing walking INTO the Grandstands and at the bottom of the grandstands. Security was needed to constantly unblock the blocked aisles of non- ticketed GS people. A few gentleman quite annoyed that we had to walk by “ their” walkway aisle” seats!
And a huge RISK of fire/ terrorist/ explosion/ emergency restriction ingress and egress with lawn chairs and people along the walkways and fencing into the Grandstands.
They used to not allow General Admission past a certain point before the Casino which would be safer and easier to manage. Plenty of great GA seating at the hair
in etc.
Otherwise, a fantastic race, city, venue and welcome from an otherwise polite crowd.Written June 21, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Everyone had a brilliant time and we were all super impressed with the quality of the experience.
There’s a bit of queuing on arrival (in spite of the pre-booked slot). Once it was our turn, someone helped us to get our VR sets on. Immediately we could see an avatar representing the people around us. Our group had yellow avatars, the staff had green, and everyone else was blue - making it easy to identify people during the experience.
Once we entered the VR space we were completely immersed, standing on a space station while looking down at the Earth. There were no walls at first so I really felts like I might fall off! It was quite realistic.
We were able to walk around and tap bubbles which would immerse us even further - here you lost all perception of those around you and you were enveloped in a part of the space station on your own where an astronaut talked about life living on it.
Towards the end of the experience we were guided to a seat in the “cinema” - the VR set made your assigned seat glow to avoid any confusion. We watched a short VR film, and then the experience ended.
Overall the experience was fantastic and I would highly recommend it. The only negative was that a few of us had problems without headset and needed help, and sometimes it look a while to get someone’s attention.
All in all it was well worth it.Written January 9, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

People were well-behaved, show was great.Written June 27, 2014This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
