Le Pays de la Sagouine

It was an amazing immersive experience. A must for the whole family.
It's a pathway through Forest that is full of surprises and enchantment. We loved it !

Wonderful place to visit if you're interested in Acadian culture. So many things to see and lots of activities going on all day.

If you understand English only check the guided tour time for English. If you are a music lover, definitely going to enjoy it.

Small walk to each site and to the island. Restaurant (snacks) and beer available.

Friendly service and must visit place

Excellent spot for fun, relaxation and learning. They have many different types of live performances and shows where you get to learn about the Acadian people and their traditions.

There's hiking and activities and the Akadi Lumina experience is unbelievable. It felt as though you were walking through a fantasy where you were traipsing through an enchanted misty forest where you experience the Acadian history like never before. At points you're enveloped in darkness and others, bathed in light as the forest came a live around us.

We had a great morning here. Make sure you check the schedule for the language of the presentations, which are excellent, the history of Acadia presentation in the hangar was my highlight. The site is easy to explore on your own, and it's accessible. The site is split into two sections, the 'land' and the 'island', the activities on the land were excellent, the island felt like it needed some love, and that there was nothing happening except for a singing/dance performance in French. There are houses that you can go in and explore, but zero information about what they represent, the time period, or the significance of the building. There also appears to be a cooking section, which was also abandoned when we visited. There is food available on site, it's fairly expensive and the choices on the island are mainly fried. Please bring a water bottle, the only water to purchase was an $11 reusable water bottle.

Is it good value for money? I wouldn't say for the $70 it cost my family of 4 to enter that it was.

Would I recommend that you visit? If you understand some French, yes. If you don't speak any, then I would have a hard time doing so.

The response I got was fair, and if they made it clear and explained that the locations would be manned (maybe a little clock with a return time, or a sign at the entrance of the building) then I would say that it's a great visit.

We really enjoyed the short videos of La Sagouine which provided info on the the acadian culture and history. This was followed by a music and story telling " Les folkloriques " well worth the time!
