If you want to check out Harvard but don’t really have a clue what you’re looking at, this is definitely the way to do it. We came away feeling well and truly versed in Harvard history and way of life, and learning it from an actual Harvard student no less made it all the more interesting and authentic. Lola was an excellent guide and a pleasure to spend the morning with.
