campus tour

Prospective student stroll

A campus tour is a guided walk through a college or university, typically led by a current student for prospective applicants and their families.

Tours showcase dormitories, libraries, dining halls, and athletic facilities while highlighting campus life: We visited six schools and went on a campus tour at each one.

The term extends to tours of any institutional grounds: corporate campuses, hospital complexes.
