Top Museums in Quebec

Consider bringing your lunch. The café can be pricey and gets busy around noon. There are picnic spots outside if the weather's nice!

Try to visit on a Wednesday if you can. They often have reduced admission rates, plus it's usually less crowded than on weekends.

Use the app or website to map out your must-see exhibits before arrival. It’ll save you so much time and help you hit all the highlights you want to see.

If you're into photography the view of Parliament Hill from the museum is stunning especially around sunset. Don't miss it!

I recommend checking out the interactive exhibits first; they were super fun and engaging! It really set the tone for the rest of my visit.

I recommend buying your tickets online in advance. It saved me a ton of time since I skipped the long line at the entrance. Trust me, you don’t want to waste your vacation waiting around!

If you can, grab your tickets online ahead of time to skip the lines. I saved about 30 minutes by doing this and had more time to enjoy the exhibits.

Check out the schedule for the feeding times of the animals. I nearly missed seeing the penguins get fed and it was a total highlight! Also, I think it helps to plan your visit around those times.

My advice is to check out the combo ticket options... I saved some cash by buying a ticket that included both the museum and the train ride next door – super fun!

I recommend bringing your own snacks and drinks. The food stands inside were pricey and not that great, so we just took a break with our own picnic on the lawn
