Educational Tour

What better place to learn about the roles and responsibilities of the judicial system than at the Supreme Court of Canada? For students and teachers, we offer guided tours of the Court that are both educational and fun. In one of Canada’s most historic buildings, our guides offer an educational tour that will give students insights into the Supreme Court of Canada’s important role.

We ask that school groups make reservations by calling (613) 995-5361 or 1‑866‑360‑1522 or by e-mailing us at tour@scc‑csc.gc.ca.
