Canadian Signature Experience – Aboriginal Voyageur

Part of DESTINATION CANADA’s curated collection of extraordinary and authentically Canadian travel experiences. As diverse as the country itself, these unique experiences are offered from coast to coast to coast, and provide an introduction to the best Canada – and Canadians – have to offer.

Discover Canada’s history through the diverse experiences and perspectives of the real people who lived it as you tour the impressive Indigenous Peoples displays at the Canadian Museum of History, Canada's largest and most visited museum.

Embark on a guided tour of our animated Indigenous living history displays and our vibrant, traditional “Welcome Dance” performance and participate in a shared "Friendship Dance".

Then, assume the role of voyageur and set off in Montreal Canoes alongside costumed animated voyageurs for an hour long paddle along the shore of the Ottawa River while learning about the way of life for these early explorers.

​Reservations are required.
