Site Traditionnel Huron Onhoüa Chetek8e

A must do. A cultural experience quite unlike anything else I’ve ever seen before (I’m European so we don’t have native Americans there). Every staff member we met was very friendly and polite and knew so much about the Huron wendate. We had the nicest guide (a quite short lady with glasses) who had funny stories about life in the ancient tribes and explained everything very well. The site itself although quite remote is really worth visiting and the souvenir shop very nice as well. I highly recommend

A brilliant visit and tour that is well worth the taxi ride. Be sure to book in advance! Our very knowledgeable and witty guide Raphael kept us captivated for the whole tour (in English) and was detailed and patient with answering questions. This is a great adventure about a history that is little known to me as an Englishman. The gift shop is beautiful too and you will be compelled to contribute to the Wendake community.

Highly recommended visit. The guiding tour was very insightful sharing stories in the 1st person to help up understand better the story of this native community. You can’t go around the site on your own you need to join a tour. You finish at the boutique where they have plenty of home made souvenirs.

The tour is well worth the ticket price. The guides are knowledgeable and passionate about the people and the story through history into the present.

Valuable insights on how the Wendake Forst Nations lived. The first foreign currency in Canada was beaver pelts. The tour covered all aspects of their day to day life and trade.

Loved visiting this place in May of 2024. Learnt lots of information about the Huron people and their history. Everybody there is super friendly and nice. Definitely recommend the short drive over for anybody visiting Quebec City. The gift shop is great too!

This is a great place. I went with my family and we signed up for a guided tour, though you could explore on your own if you wished. There was an option to have the guided tour in both French and English and I would certainly recommend having a tour as it was a great opportunity to ask questions and learn more than just what we could read on signs and see in the displays. Our guide in particular was very knowledgeable and approachable. There's so much history and culture here and this site is a great way to help understand traditional life and to understand how the people have struggled and continue to struggle under colonialism and yet how resilient they are and how they continue to work to better their community. There is a large gift shop as well, with many interesting items to purchase, and the products are produced by, and proceeds going towards indigenous people. At they same time, I did not feel that anyone was pushy or that there was any pressure to buy anything. There is also a restaurant on site that serves traditional foods, though we did not eat here due to dietary restrictions. This place is not a polished or slick place, but it's still very much worth the time. It is good for a half day event and I would highly recommend it.

We received great service, the spot is very calm and you can hear the flow from the nearby river. The site is well maintained and honestly impressive. We’ve had a great immersive experience slowly walking around the longhouse. I absolutely recommend visiting the traditional site!
