Student led tours are the way to go - Absolutely loved this tour led by Dillion! He was wonderful and very knowledgeable. Could not recommend this enough if you want to learn about Harvard from someone with a clear passion for the school.

Harvard to be - Great tour student guide was quite informative and answered all questions. Got a real sense of the experience of a student. Took my daughter and she really enjoyed it. Harvard yard was impressive and full of energy and the explanation on big events was great.

Great tour guide, lame tour - Our tour guide, Nora, was excellent. She was delightful, full of stories and facts about Harvard. We were super disappointed that we didn't go inside any buildings. We could have walked around the campus on our own. This should be clearly indicated when you book the tour.

Good overview of Harvard and the campus - Good overall. Knowledgeable about places of interest and gave good insight into campus. Engaged with everyone. Was a bit quietly spoken which made it difficult to hear him sometimes

We couldn’t find the tour - We missed the tour….we went to the address and by the time we talked to someone who actually knew where we needed to be it was past our scheduled time.
