We attended the MIT tour... - We attended the MIT tour on a cold day, resulting in a private tour. This provided an excellent opportunity to ask any questions we had. The guide was friendly and took us inside some campus buildings. We observed some student exhibitions, which I found intriguing as it provided insight into MIT student culture. Overall, we had a positive experience and highly recommend this tour.
