"Journey Through History: Exploring 'Bunker 24' in Moose Jaw" - Visiting "Bunker 24" in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan was an incredible journey back in time to the World War II era. As I stepped inside, the atmosphere immediately transported me to the wartime era, with authentic artifacts and immersive exhibits surrounding me. The tour guide provided fascinating insights into the significance of bunkers during the war and shared captivating stories about the experiences of soldiers who inhabited them. Exploring the bunker was both educational and eye-opening, offering a deeper understanding of the sacrifices made during that pivotal time in history. It's an experience I won't soon forget and one that I highly recommend to anyone interested in learning more about World War II.

An Enjoyable Experience! - We really enjoyed this tour. Both of the tour guides were great. The one playing the "Rex Fruit" seller and the spy recruiter. We enjoyed the information and the different tunnels and sets. The spy recruiter was very polite and made sure that everyone was there in the room so we could all hear him. We really appreciated that. A fun tour!

Highly recommend. - We really enjoyed this tour. Good history and the bunker and displays were top notch. Exceeded our expectations! We have seen all three now and probably Bunker 24 and the Chinese immigrants tied for our favorites.

Bunker 24 - Visited with my brothers and their kids yesterday for the Bunker 24 tour. My son really enjoyed all the secret passageways and cool rooms. Everyone got name tags to wear so the kids liked that as well. This was the better of the 3 tours in my opinion but a little confusing at the end between the guides and different stories. I understand what they were trying to do but it wasn't necessary for the explanation at the end about the Rex fruits/recruits story. Very interesting and fun for the kids. The company put a lot of effort and detail into all the rooms compare to the other tours. Would visit again.
