"The groups moved quickly enough that it kept the students attention, yet they had time to explore and ask questions in each area."

Requests for a group campus tour may now be submitted on line. Because there may have previous reservations, please include optional dates.
Educational Group Tours
Each year, over 1000 young students visit BYU-Idaho to gain knowledge and to broaden their exposure to the world of higher education. University Relations coordinates the tours and assigns BYU-Idaho students to serve as tour guides creating an enjoyable learning experience. Tours are designed to meet each group's specific needs and a small gift is given to elementary students (e.g. pencil or coloring book). Frequently visited areas include:
- Geology Museum in the Romney Building
-
Greenhouses in Benson Building
-
Planetarium in the Romney Building (see note below)
-
Wildlife Museum in Benson Building
-
Walking campus tours for an overview of the university
Group tours are free of charge and increasing in popularity; please make reservations well in advance. Large groups may be divided into smaller numbers to accommodate the space (ideally 25-30 each). To schedule a tour, call (208) 496-1150 or use the online request form.
Note:
- Tours for prospective students are provided by the Admissions Office.
- Group reservations for Planetarium shows that do not also include a campus tour may be scheduled through the campus scheduler in Event Services (208) 496-2242.
