Friends of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts have the opportunity to go on day tours that open up new horizons in art. These exclusive tours are often organized to coincide with major exhibitions in Canadian museums, regional festivals and major art events. Discover our cultural heritage and visit private homes and collections that are off limits to the general public. Enjoy worry-free touring: our tours are complete and include transportation, guide, guided tours, entry fees and meals. Join others who love art and culture for some memorable experiences!

The Museum’s Volunteer Association also organizes fantastic cultural trips under ten days to foreign destinations. See Cultural Trips
