Visitors can enjoy free campus walking tours, offered twice daily, seven days a week, at 11:00 a.m. and 3:15 p.m. every day throughout the year, except during the winter holiday break (mid-December through the first week of January) and certain other holiday periods.

Led by student guides who are well-versed in the University's history, academic offerings, and student life, these tours include the Main Quad, Memorial Church, the science and engineering buildings, and two main libraries. The tours last about an hour and depart from the front steps of Memorial Auditorium and end in White Plaza between the Stanford Bookstore and Old Union.

Reservations are not required for parties of nine or fewer. Parties of 10 or more must book a private tour.
