Découvrez Toronto en participant aux pROMenades, une série de visites guidées à pied qui emmènent les participants à la découverte de la ville.

Ces visites guidées sont programmées chaque année de mai à octobre, beau temps mauvais temps, et englobent diverses facettes de quartiers dynamiques, et sont menées avec l’expertise de guides compétents dans le cadre d’une aventure urbaine et d’apprentissage. Il y a de nombreux quartiers à découvrir, chacun ayant leur propre histoire, notamment sur les gens, l’architecture, les arts de toute sorte et bien plus encore.

Les pROMenades gratuites, Les pROMenades Plus et les pROMenades pour les groupes en privé sont offertes au grand public. Des pROMenades sont aussi organisées en exclusivité pour les Membres du ROM. Chaque année, des pROMenades gratuites sont également offertes en français. Veuillez-vous référer à la brochure pour plus de renseignements.

Les pROMenades gratuites ne nécessitent aucune inscription et ont lieu le dimanche à 14 h et le mercredi à 18 h. Il suffit de se présenter au point de rendez-vous d’une promenade et de chercher le parapluie du ROM.

Les pROMenades Plus sont destinées aux petits groupes afin de présenter des itinéraires nouvellement développés. Ces visites sont offertes certains dimanches à 14 h. Le coût est de 15 $ par personne et nécessitent une préinscription.

Les pROMenades pour les groupes privés sont parfaites pour les clubs sociaux, les groupes communautaires, les touristes de l’extérieur, ou les grands rassemblements d’amis et de membres d’une famille. Ces promenades peuvent être programmées à tout moment selon les disponibilités. Le coût de participation est de 15 $ par personne, avec un minimum de 150 $ par groupe.

Les pROMenades réservées aux Membres du ROM sont gratuites, nécessitent une inscription et sont programmées le samedi. Les Membres sont informés par courriel des prochaines dates de promenades exclusives et des modalités d’inscription.

Organisées par le Service des bénévoles du ROM, les pROMenades ont débuté en 1980 en tant que programme de sensibilisation pour le Musée quand il était fermé pour cause de rénovations. Le programme s’est développé au fil des ans, avec des dizaines d’itinéraires, des promenades gratuites programmées de façon régulière pendant six mois et un nombre croissant de participants très satisfaits.
