Free admission, world-class collections, and a beautiful building in the Whittier neighborhood. We handle the drive so your museum day starts the moment you arrive.
Book Your Ride Call 612-298-3101 Text UsThe Minneapolis Institute of Art, known locally as Mia, sits in the Whittier neighborhood just south of downtown, home to a permanent collection spanning thousands of years and cultures, all free to visit. Its residential surroundings mean street parking is limited and often taken by neighborhood residents, which makes a drop-off at the door a genuinely easier option than driving yourself.
We run trips to Mia for casual weekend visitors, members attending special exhibitions, and groups coordinating a museum day as part of a longer visit to the Twin Cities. Whatever the occasion, we get you to the door instead of circling side streets looking for parking.
Special exhibition openings and members' previews bring bigger crowds than a typical weekday, and we build in extra time for those dates. On a quiet afternoon, the trip is close to door-to-door with no wait.
Your chauffeur can hold a pickup spot near the entrance so you're not walking several blocks back to a parked car after a few hours on your feet in the galleries.
Street parking around Mia is limited and often full, particularly on weekends. A black car drop-off means you skip the search and start your visit immediately.
Mia hosts evening events, lectures, and gallery talks that run later than typical museum hours, and we treat those pickups with the same reliability as an afternoon visit.
No app to download, no check-in call required. We watch your flight so you don't have to.
Mia's permanent collection includes more than 90,000 works spanning nearly every culture and era, and the fact that admission is free makes it one of the most accessible major museums in the country. The building itself, with its grand classical facade facing the park, has been a Minneapolis landmark for over a century.
We've run trips for visitors making Mia the centerpiece of a Twin Cities art day, often paired with a stop at the nearby Walker Art Center or Minneapolis Sculpture Garden. Coordinating both stops as one planned day is something we do regularly for art-focused visitors.
Mia hosts galas, fundraisers, and corporate events throughout the year, and those nights call for coordinated arrivals and departures rather than a single pickup. We work directly with event planners on timing for these larger functions.
Corporate groups touring the museum as a team outing or client entertainment event book with us regularly, and we coordinate the whole visit as smoothly as a downtown business trip.
Whatever brings you to Mia, we coordinate the whole trip, not just one pickup.
School groups, museum member events, and visiting groups touring multiple Twin Cities cultural stops in one day all book with us for Mia visits. We coordinate multiple vehicles so everyone arrives together.
Local tip: If you're planning to visit Mia alongside the Walker Art Center or Sculpture Garden the same day, let us know your full itinerary when you book and we'll plan the whole route rather than treating each stop as a separate ride.
A couple or small group visiting together fits comfortably in a Lincoln sedan. Larger groups touring together do better in a Cadillac Escalade or Chevrolet Suburban.
Every vehicle is late-model, all-black, and detailed before every shift, a fitting way to arrive for a day at one of the city's finest cultural institutions.
Street parking here is genuinely limited, and our chauffeurs know which nearby streets and drop-off approaches actually work without circling the block.
Many visitors pair Mia with the Walker Art Center or Sculpture Garden the same day, and we plan the whole route as one trip rather than a series of disconnected pickups.
School groups, member events, and larger touring parties visiting Mia often need more than one vehicle. We coordinate multi-car bookings under a single point of contact so the whole group arrives together.
We've run groups of a dozen or more split across several vehicles for gala nights and special member events, timed to arrive within minutes of each other.
Mia sits at 2400 Third Avenue South in the Whittier neighborhood of Minneapolis, just south of downtown. Our chauffeurs know the neighborhood's street layout and the best drop-off approach for the museum's main entrance.
For visitors combining a museum day with other Twin Cities stops or an MSP Airport transfer, we coordinate the whole day as one planned route.
Mia's permanent collection is open year-round, with special ticketed exhibitions rotating throughout the year that draw larger crowds than a typical visit. We recommend booking ahead for major exhibition openings and gala events specifically, since those dates bring noticeably heavier foot and vehicle traffic to the neighborhood.
We run trips to Mia regularly from downtown Minneapolis, Edina, St. Paul, and every neighborhood across the metro.
