georgiagreenguy January 08 2012	The tour was led by an informative student guide in a group of about 7. We toured the athletic and student centers, a research lab, some libraries, and overall it gave us a good feel. No dorms though. [View Full Report]
Lotus7 December 21 2010	I conducted my own self-tour. I visited the campus a week after MIT halted tours for the year. The Information Center has maps and a neat self guide for the campus. Definitely came in handy. [View Full Report]

SarahsDad June 12 2010	Good tour by jocular, if somewhat nerdy (OK, it's MIT, I know) tour guide. Lots of amusing anecdotes. Diffused the hard-core stereotype of MIT. Tour reinforced sprawling aspect of campus though. [View Full Report]

bluesquaremoon March 03 2009	Loved the tour! I already knew most of the information but the campus is gorgeous and definitely worth a visit. Learned about various student centers and general layout of buidings. [View Full Report]
LIMOMOF2 August 24 2008	The tour was great - lots of information about the school, the architecture and the famous MIT "hacks." Even my 12-year old S enjoyed himself. [View Full Report]

dsultemeier March 19 2008	Campus tour was superficial and concentrated mainly on "hacks." We also took a tour of the EE-CS department that was excellent. [View Full Report]
natk4 October 26 2007	Also well done. Tour guide was a senior in civil engineering. [View Full Report]
crazy mom August 23 2007	Great tour guide and wonderful tour. Took us everywhere except inside dorms, which was disappointing. [View Full Report]
la montagne August 20 2007	He was good. He gave tons of interesting tidbits about things we passed by and explained the MIT experience very well. We also ran into one of his professors on the way, and he introduced us. [View Full Report]

Dal July 19 2007	My tour was given by a Biology major that definitely showed some of the quirky nature of MIT. She gave a lot of stories about MIT and actually spent a lot of time talking about the social life at MIT. [View Full Report]
TritiumKnight June 15 2007	My tour guide was very informative and gave interesting tidbits about the campus. She was fully capable of answering any questions you had about the campus. [View Full Report]
oasis August 13 2006	The main tour took us through a lot of the campus facilities, including the major buildings and the dormitories. It gave a very thorough feel of MIT. A special bonus was that our guide also gave us a "mini-tour" of the hack locations whilst re [View Full Report]
