The Insectarium is an insect museum located on the same property as the Botanical Gardens and you have access to this museum with the price of admission from the Gardens. The museum displayed insects from around the world in exhibits, both preserved and alive. There were tarantulas, spiders, ants, butterflies and much more. It was a really cool place to wander around and learn more about insect life. Although the museum was geared more towards children, it is still definitely worth a visit for adults too. It was really interesting to watch all the ants carry pieces of leaves back and forth along a tree branch. Recommend a visit to this museum while in Montreal!

I have literally heard of this insect museum for decades, and was very pleased to finally visit it. This accessible two-story space has all the information you might want about insects, across hundreds of millions of years and the breadth of the globe. My only issue is that good made from insects was not available in an on-site cafe, but the energy bar made of crickets that I got from a vendingachine sufficed. Recommended as part of a visit to the Botanical Gardens.

Great place for the kids. It's part of the Botanical gardens which is quite beautiful. It's accessible by public transit. It's best you enter via rue Sherbrooke as it is closest to the more main entrance of the grounds. Great way to spend a day.

It was my first time at this place and I had very good experience, place was nicely designed with beautiful displays and live creatures, it is was fascinating and informative not only for children but for us adults too. I really enjoyed my time there and definitely will recommend to everyone.

I don't like insects particularity. I really enjoyed it though. I went with my family and the kids and we all loved it. It's worth it definitely.
