The Grévin experience

OUR VISITORS SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES

Really great as a visit! For people who do not know Quebec stars this is still interesting because it allows you to discover the local culture. There is even a historical section which is really great! I love the wax hand activity. It's a super interesting and fun experience. We can choose the shape and color we want. The statues are really similar and you can see the work behind it (details of wrinkles, hair, hair, hand lines etc ...)

I recommend 😊

Nice visit and lots of fun. We didn't have much wait but were pleasantly surprised. If you allow yourself to embark on this tour by letting yourself go and play the game, you will have fun. The first part of the museum is really good with successful staging. Most of the wax statues are very successful. The wide choice of years and characters represented make this visit as pleasant for adults as children. Our visit lasted around 1 hour. To save a few dollars book and buy your tickets online

A museum to visit, the characters are very well made.
The backstage at the end shows us how the characters are made. I felt like I was with them.
An experience that I recommend to the whole family at a reasonable cost!
