VIRTUAL TOURS
UCHICAGO Alumni
NEXT Public Event
Chicago Neighborhoods!
Connect with architecture, history, and alums from the comfort of home.
Join your fellow alums on interactive virtual tours through the University of Chicago Alumni Association. Each 60-minute-long, interactive virtual presentation includes lively commentary by Chicago Detours expert tour guides.
Live narration is accompanied by a variety of visuals, from historic photography to 360-degree panning street views.
Our events include interactive elements, such as trivia, creative challenges or educational games. The opportunity to ask questions or give comments in real time encourages your connections with the always interesting community of UChicago Alumni!
Our virtual tours are NOT academic lectures. They are fun, curated experiences that are designed for learning and enjoyment!
Special alumni rates are discounted 20% from regular rates for our public events.
