Overview of your San Jose tour:

Stanford University is respected as one of the top universities in the country if not the world. It is located about 30 miles south of San Francisco on what was once a horse farm. Frederick Law Olmstead laid out the campus in the late 19th century as a series of quadrangles nestled beneath the Santa Cruz Mountains. Today, the campus is impressive in its beauty and its achievements. Our tour will take us into the heart of campus where we will walk by the Memorial Church and visit its interior (if open) as well as Hoover Tower, the Stanford Bookstore, the Cantor Museum, and other sites. I am a Certified Guide and live near Stanford University. I offer the additional perspective of having taken many classes there and given these walking tours for visitors, dignitaries, students, and business people.
