Public Voyageur Canoe Tours are done for the season but groups of 8+ can still paddle with us until Thanksgiving! 🛶 Reach out to book a private Voyageur Canoe Tour.

Take your Canadian Canoe Museum visit to the next level by paddling in one of our 36' Montreal or 26' North voyageur canoes. Discover what is beyond The Canadian Canoe Museum’s docks during a one-of-a kind paddling experience on Little Lake!

Voyageur Canoe Tours offer a fun group adventure, with no paddling experience necessary. During your one hour tour, our guides tailor the experience & teach you all you need to know to get on the water with confidence.

Your next adventure awaits 🛶

From June 6 to September 5, 2025, our voyageur canoes will be making weekly departures from our docks at:

Fridays at 10:30 AM
Saturdays at 10:30 AM
Sundays at 11:30 AM

Members save 10%!

The best way to explore the Museum is by becoming a member! Be sure to use your membership code at checkout to save 10% off your seat in the voyageur canoe.

Who can join a Voyageur Canoe Tour?

This fun and engaging tour is for all ages and paddling abilities.

Don't forget - this is a participatory tour and you will be asked to contribute what you can as part of the crew. There is certainly no expectation to paddle at an Olympic pace, but you won’t go very far if the guide is the only one paddling!

Please note:

All visitors MUST wear PFDs and comply with boat safety guidelines outlined by your Voyageur Canoe Tour guide.
Visitors must weigh 30 lbs or more.
Visitors with mobility or stability concerns are advised that some may find it difficult to get in and out of the voyageur canoe. Please contact us if you have any questions about the suitability of the tour. (Our adaptive canoe and kayak launch is available for canoe and kayak rentals and those bringing their own canoe or kayak.)
