Site d'Interprétation Micmac de Gespeg — Attraction in Gaspé

This was a highlight of my vacation that I will not soon forget.

There is a small, very well-done museum (not very strong AC, if any) and gift shop inside and a number of structures outside that our tour guide, Melanie, took us through with great knowledge.

We did an English guided tour (because that was the next tour available). The guide was friendly but didn't animate like the French guides did in their tours... Overall...
