So much fun! - I had the greatest time on my tour this week! I learned so many things and had a great time. Mimi is hilarious! You need to do this tour. Honestly, if I hadn't already gone to college I would be applying to Princeton right now.

Fantastic tour of Princeton - We had a wonderful time on this tour. Jacqui, our guide was fantastic! She was so knowledgeable, vibrant and funny! She talked about the history and architecture of the university and amazing facts about the famous residents who lived nearby long ago. Jacqui answered many questions and gave recommendations on restaurants and things to do. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area!
