Travel notes

McGill's Welcome Centre offers free tours to visitors all year. August is the busiest month with up to eight groups a day.

Guides are McGill students who must field a broad range of questions. One frequently asked by non-Canadian visitors: How cold does it get here?

To arrange a tour, or for general information about the University, call the Welcome Centre at (514) 398-6555.

Campus Tours

University tour guide Sacha Medele shows a group of prospective students and their families around campus. To land the plum job, Sacha had to undergo a rigorous screening and a crash course about McGill.




The Roslyn Robertson Herb and Scent Garden

The Roslyn Robertson Herb and Scent Garden is named for the widow of former McGill principal H. Rocke Robertson, BSc'32, MDCM'36, LLD'70. Located near the Drummond Street entrance of the McIntyre Medical Sciences Building, the garden is tended and maintained by the McGill Women Associates, and provides a fragrant retreat during the summer months.
