Our guide was a university student and the best guide/docent we have ever had ANYWHERE. He was knowledgeable, dressed in period costume, patient, and held objects for ideal photo opportunities. Tours are highly worth it. Prepare to spend 2.5-3.5 hours in total. Check the website to ensure you arrive at tour times and check that there's enough space for your group.
When you visit Brantford, this is a must on your to do list. The history is remarkable, the stories so real, and the tea house is absolutely delicious. Be sure to visit, make a reservation and indulge in this locally inspiring experience for at least 2 hours. Don't rush! Cheers, Spicy Jan
It has preservation. beautiful furniture and home interior. I thought I wanted to live here. It was an impressive place among the places I visited. Her explanation was excellent and friendly. I would like to listen to it again.
I've gone there before ages ago and it was interesting. But the tour we took today was really informative. Jillian did her absolute best to answer our questions and made sure to include my 9 year old into the experience. The ticket prices are reasonable $10 adult, less for seniors and kids. The tour took a bit over an hour, and it's limited to 8 people or less at a time, so it's a good feeling because you're not in a giant crowd.
This place is a must visit to those who love history. I loved every bit of my time spent here. While I was taking look at each invention of Sir Graham Bell, it took me back to thoughts of them old days when the world & technology was yet to evolve. You will be able to take a guided tour inside Sir Bell’s house $20, the guide will tell you every details of the items kept there & there also will be screen of a short documentary. There also a cafe next to the house where you can enjoy some great snack & coffee. The grand River flows by the house, there are corn fields on the front. There’s a lot of love elements aswell like a swing, chair that Mr&Mrs Bell would spend. The best time to visit this place will be summer or fall. A pre booking for a guided tour should be done as it’s timed & available at specific time of day with limited people. It’s a good place to take children along coz it’s going to fascinate them more & show how far we’ve all come in this evolving technology.
Nice small museum, that tells us the history of Alexander Graham Bell, who invented the phone and lived in that house for a while. It is actually a tour, that takes about an hour. The guide was very nice lady, who was dressed old fashioned and told the story pretty interesting. The tour mostly is between the rooms of the house and the story mostly about Graham’s family. It is very nice and recommended.
Really nice place to visit. It’s so worth. Got a good guide and some nice souvenirs.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo

Great experience. Kids loved it and even I learned a few new things. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff as well. Will definitely return.
Amazing place! Would be a great experience for the kids to gain perspective of how life was in those years. The host Addison was great. Answered questions patiently.
