MIT Walking Tour

We'll meet at Main Street at your selected time and begin the walk around the MIT, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, campus. Our first stop will be at Stata Centre, which includes the Gates and Dreyfoos Buildings.

Next, we'll head to the Green Building, the tallest structure on campus and in all of Cambridge, housing MIT's Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences departments. Notable innovators such as Tim Berners-Lee, William Hewlett, and Alfred P. Sloan have studied at MIT.

The visit will also take us to The Great Dome, where we'll discover MIT student traditions. We'll walk along Massachusetts Avenue to reach Harvard Bridge, the longest bridge crossing the Charles River.

We'll see Lobby 7, leading to the Infinite Corridor that runs through MIT's main buildings. The corridor is 800 ft (251 metres) long and serves as one of the main entrances to the campus. The tour will conclude after 1 hour and 10 minutes.
