Beautiful, welcoming gallery - A beautiful, well-designed and maintained facility. The wood environment (floors, stairs, and benches) is so beautiful that it too is worthy of memorable photos. The collections are beautifully presented and include many works of art and genres not seen elsewhere. It is apparently somewhat "undescovered" and allows a quiet, uncrowded visit. Overall, one of the best we've ever visited.

Tons of different artwork - There’s a huge selection of artwork here, not only Canadian art, but art from different cultures and eras. There is even free admission for those who are under 25 so it’s definitely worth visiting!

Great Return Visit - It had been two years since I last visited Toronto and the AGO. I returned to visit the permanent collection of Canadian artists and several special exhibits. Particularly noteworthy was the special exhibit the late Philippine-born artist Pacita Abad (1946–2004). This is a great art museum where members of the staff are friendly and helpful.

Many Eras of Art - Loved the Renaissance and Group of 7 collections. Very cool coin social experiment, and lots of nice Canadian landscapes and Impressionism.

Amazing gallery, just a shame I only had limited time - Wow, what a great gallery. So much to see. I felt in 2 hours I’d barely covered any of it. I liked all the Canadian and indigenous artists. Good to see the group of 7 and especially Tom Thomson’s stuff. I had been told about them when I’d bought some Tom Thomson wine the previous day. The gallery is maze like I went from room to room completely amazed

Beautiful - Checking out museums while visiting cities is a MUST for us! While visiting Toronto, AGO was on our list! Beautiful art museum with stunning pieces, architecture & collections! We went on a weekend, it had a decent amount of people but never felt crowded since the place is massive & everyone had space. Some of our fave spots:
- the hallway that had a stunning skyline view of the city
- the hallway with all glass
- iconic paintings
- fun gift shop!
Felt very peaceful to stroll around & see the art here.

Worth the money! - Many floors of art to view. I enjoyed seeing the "For the Culture" exhibition. Others were nice as well.

Modern Art meh - Nice architecture for a museum. Not as big as I thought it might be. We all found something interesting to see but its not as big as some other museums we have been to. Mostly modern art which I am not a big fan. The stairs are great and the KAWS exhibit was cool.

Rude staff, broken vending machines - The staff here were extremely rude! I was looking at an artwork when one of the staff members violently grabbed me by the arm and shoved me away from the art piece. The vending machines do not work, as me and my friends wasted well over 5 dollars trying to get chips.

Delay with confirmation of membership - I was a member of AGO for msny years enjoying visits to the museum several times a year.
I also had the privilege of visiting many museums all over the North America for $165 a year.
This year I wanted to renew the membership but it was $235. I was surprised. But then I decided to go to US and I calculated that it will be netter to buy this type of membership. It turned out the price was $300 (three hundred). But I still proceeded with purchase.
Guess what? They did not send the membership account number.
I am still in the loop of paying and not getting the privilege.
Too bad.
