We were only in the area for a couple of days and this was one of the attractions we chose. There weren't any tours when we were there but the actors answered most of our questions. Sad to see so few visitors there. There was even birthday cake for Queen Victoria. Definitely a must see when you are in the... More

I remember as a child coming for class trips. Now as an adult loved it just the same. They do serve food and near by towns have great eating places but I like packing a picnic. Feels like going back in time! Lovely summer day trip back in time.

They have people acting out what life would have been like years ago. It's intriguing to see what a house would have looked like, and to go through each room. Then you have to go through each room of various businesses and services. You can easily spend 2-3 hours there, very educational, interesting and fun.

Loads of history! The restored fort, people dressed in period clothing, seeing how the settlers lived when they first came to Manitoba, very much something everyone should experience.

Costumed staff were excellent and made our visit very interesting and entertaining. Would definitely go back.
