shown around
Guided through spaces
To be shown around is to be given a tour of an unfamiliar place by someone who knows it: A colleague showed me around the office on my first day.
The guide walks you through the space, pointing out what matters.
You might be shown around a campus, a neighborhood, or a house you're considering buying.
