Very educationally informative, but not extremely socially informative. [View Full Report]

I didn't go on the official campus tour, but my host gave me a tour of the lawn/rotunda/libraries. Weather was awful when I was there, but even in the rain the campus was impressive! [View Full Report]

Tour guide was very insightful in campus life and was easier to hear and understand. Talked about all the quirks on campus and secret societies. Very entertaining. Very enthusiastic about uva! [View Full Report]

Actually a tad disappointing. Much of "The Lawn" was brown and torn up. Freshman dorms appeared old, non-descript and unairconditioned. [View Full Report]

The guide was very enthusiastic in general. She had a loud voice, and seemed to explain pretty much everything. Spent most of the time around dorm area answering questions(like laundry, car, AC, bus). [View Full Report]

Also went on campus tour my junior year. Fortunately, we got the best tour guide. The guide was a fifth year, and provided a lot of useful information a/b the academics, greek life, etc. [View Full Report]

Surprisingly, my tour guide was not very good. There were too many tours going on at the same time, I think, so we couldn't go to all of the interesting places. [View Full Report]

HUGE group got stuck with one tour guide...but he handled it AMAZINGLY well. Hippieish transfer from UArizona with INCREDIBLE enthusiasm for the school. Def. a highlight. [View Full Report]

The guide, an out of state student knew the campus very well, shared stories about his own experiences (especailly as as OOS student), and made everyone feel welcome. [View Full Report]

The campus stunned me; it was damn beautiful. Our tour guide, instead of just pointing things out, decided to tell us stories about everything which I found great. [View Full Report]

The UVA campus is big. It was a hot day. The tour guide dragged us across campus to show us the exterior of a freshman dorm but wouldn't take us inside, saying she didn't have access. Ridicu [View Full Report]

The tour guide was very helpful and knowledgeable, shared alot of student knowledge you can't get from a website. The tour went to the standard spots, dorms, the rotunda, ampitheater, etc. [View Full Report]

after having gone on many tours, some of which were very mundane and boring, the UVA tour was extremely exciting and my tour guide was awesome [View Full Report]

Student-led, very helpful because they know all the little corners and good spots for students. Ask them questions! Students know a lot about the place and you can always ask them an opinion. [View Full Report]
