grosse ile印象

Tour very well done and interesting. Guide was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Good weather helped too.

Our visit was very interesting especially for history buffs, but it is quite a little investment with the boat over. I'm sure the upkeep is expensive so it's probably reasonable but we really debated whether it was worth it. In the end we're glad we went. This is a really important piece of history that is skimmed over at best in school curriculum.

The island is a Federal Park that is usually visited with an official guide. During a typical visit you will encounter actors playing real historic characters. You must take a boat to get to the island, from Berthier-sur-Mer near Montmagny or from Quebec City.As the official website warns you, it is likely you will be moved by the story of Grosse Île, due to the human tragedy that happened on the island. You will relive the troubling experience of immigrants who were quarantined here. Thousands of them, mostly Irish, died here! One reviewer rated the experience as very painful. But perhaps we have a duty to remember. And there is beauty also... The location, in the middle of the majestic Saint-Lawrence river, adds an element of intense beauty to the visit, which heightens the emotional experience by being so opposite to the sadness of the events that took place here.

My wife and I visited Grosse Ile during the last week in July (2014) and found it to be an excellent trip that was exceptionally presented by the French Canadian Parc Department. The staff on the Island was extremely knowledgeable and fluent in the history of the island and the misery of those who past through the island. I totally agree with the majority of the reviewers who who found this to be worth their time and effort and we came away emotionally moved from this tour. I totally disagree with the only negative comment that this was not an island of hope. The Irish who made up the majority of the refugees had no hope remaining in Ireland and many more would have died had they remained there since the British totally avoided providing any meaningful assistance.I was surprised at the extent of the care and compassion that the Canadians provided for these refugees. The Irish were not abandoned, the Canadians Doctors, Nurses and Religious truly saved scores who would have otherwise expired from their illnesses and starvation. The experience we feel visiting this island could never be articulated or communicated through just reading a book and reviewing photos. A must see for any Irish descendant (American or Canadian) or any present day Canadian who should be proud of the heroic history of their ancestors during this period.

ce fut un expérience merveilleuse, c'est la deuxième fois que j'y allais et c'est merveilleux à chaque fois. la visite est divisé en trois, premièrement, il y a le sentié d'environ une heure qui se rend au mémorial des Irlandais qui relate l'histoire de la venu des Irlandais en 1847 et qui y sont mort.l'autre visite est celle des lieux de décontamination et l'arrivée des immigrant à l'époque où grosse ile était en activité. finalement la troisième partie de la visite de grosse ile est un tour en petit train où on se rend dans le secteur est de la ville et où il y a des hôpitaux. en gros la visite est agréable et les guides sont professionnel et très compétent. de plus.bref, Bravo à Parc Canada, en espèrant qu'ils ne coupent pas dans les services afin de conserver le sites impécables qu'ils donnent actuellement.il y a un petit bémole, les chaisses roulante et les pousette pour bébé ne sont pas très praticable. p.s : l'attraction est gratuite (sur l'Ile) mais vous devez payer pour vous rendre sur l'ile (le bateau)

I'll disagree with the previous review that noted that this is a "must see" attraction. To be fair, Parks Canada is doing a great job trying to educate the public about the island and history of immigration for the Irish into the Port of Quebec. Our guide was helpful, knowledgeable and friendly and took time to explain the buildings and their various purposes. Currently although some buildings have been restored many are in various stages of decay which lend a feeling of neglect and loss to the island. Aside from old buildings including decontamination showers, the hospital and the hotels there are also churches, several burial grounds and a celtic cross as a tribute. There are no genealogical records here aside from a small gift shop which sells some books, mostly on the year 1847.To be perfectly clear this was not an island of hope and promise for a new life in Canada. Many Irish died here while waiting to be allowed entry due to overcrowding and disease. There are many places on throughout the island where a feeling of loss, desperation and anguish remain and this is NOT a place to visit if you are sensitive in any form. I wanted to leave very shortly after arriving, couldn't enter buidings and ended up waiting by the docks for most of the afternoon.Apparently this is not an uncommon reaction. One of the tour guides who lives on the Island (which I can't even imagine) said that visitors are often disturbed by Grosse Ile and commented that even she had a hard time being there at first.If you're interested in Grosse Ile, buy a book, read about it and take a look at some old photos. Save yourself the trouble and the heartache of visiting such a sad and lonely place.

Haben von Berthier sur Mer dorthin eine Schifffahrt gemacht und waren ca 3 Stunden mit Führung auf der 'Quarantäneinsel'.Sehr aufschlußreich und interessant,wie hauptsächlich irische Einwanderer dort empfangen wurden und hofften,daß sie gesund seien, um schnell wieder von der Insel weg zu kommen.Führungen werden von Ciollegestudenten gemacht, die auch absolut schauspielerisches Können aufweisen.Jedenfalls einen besuch wert, wenn man 1/2 Tag Zeit hat.

Nous avons pris le départ avec les Croisières Lachance à partir du quai de Berthier sur Mer. Le fleuve était très agité, car le vent était très puissant. L'animation sur le bateau nous permet d'oublier ce volet. Une visite dans le passé qui témoigne du passage obligé des premiers immigrants en provenance de plusieurs pays. Le mémorial des Irlandais est un incontournable.Nous avons terminé notre visite par le bâtiment qui est à notre arrivée; c'est dans ce bâtiment que l'on comprend l'ampleur de l'Île de la "Quarantaine". Les employés de Parc Canada sont très bien renseignés sur cette époque et sont très disponibles aux requêtes et aux questions des visiteurs. Que de bons mots pour les jeunes qui y travaillent. Nous devions apporter nourriture et breuvages. De belles photos à prendre. Retour dans le temps impressionnant. Seule ombre au tableau, il y manque un peu de développement et un peu plus d'animation avec des acteurs pour jouer des rôles comme par le passé....Quelle journée sensationnelle!

Un trésor d'histoire bien caché.... Visite très interessante! Il faudrait faire plus de publicité sur cet endroit pour que plus de gens connaissent l'histoire de grosse Ile.

Au vieux port de Québec, vous pouvez faire une excursion en bateau vers la Grosse Île. Cette excursion dure une journée. Le trajet dure environ 1 hre en bateau. Vous pouvez apporter un pique-nique sur l'ile. Sur cet île, vous ferez le tour de l'ile avec un guide et vous visiterez les premières infirmeries où tous les bateaux arrivant de l'Europe devait arrêter avant d'arriver à Québec afin de vérifier s'il n'y avait pas de maladie (scorbut, thyfoide, scarlatine, etc).
