guided walks

Escorted nature strolls

Guided walks are organized excursions led by someone with knowledge of the route, terrain, or subject matter.

A park ranger leads guided walks through nature preserves; a historian conducts guided walks through historic districts.

The term emphasizes both the walking and the expertise: The museum offers guided walks of the sculpture garden.
