Guided Tours
Our tours offer a rich, guided exploration of The Canadian Canoe Museum’s galleries, enriched by unparalleled expertise, behind-the-scenes stories and the tales not told in our exhibits. Book a tour and uniquely experience the museum with family or friends!
BOOKING A TOUR
Due to COVID-19, we have adjusted our tour offerings and policies to help ensure a safe visiting experience. We are currently offering pre-booked tours on Tuesdays at 11:00 A.M. and Thursdays at 3:30 P.M. By pre-booking a tour spot for yourself, your family or your social bubble, you are reserving that tour for your group specifically – you won’t be joined by other tour participants!
Guided tours last 45-60 minutes, after which you can tour the galleries on your own (until 3pm on Tuesdays and 5pm on Thursdays). Be sure to plan to stop by our store before you leave for an array of apparel, books, and one-of-a-kind creations by Canadian artists.
PLEASE NOTE: 48 hours advance notice is required for booking tours.
