The University of Pretoria Campus Tours, UPCT for short, is an establishment initiated by Professor Karen Harris, Head of the Department of Historical and Heritage Studies. We, the Heritage and Cultural Tourism honours students manage the enterprise as part of our Honours degree.
The theme for 2021 is GLAM, not just because we are glamorous! But because we offer unique tours based on the Universities’ Gardens/ Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums. Who knew there were magnificent gardens to revive your soul, galleries to ponder on the masters of their art, libraries to reflect on the written word and museums to remember who we are and were?
Our team prides itself in offering the most engaging tours of the wondrous world of TUKS not only from an academic point of view… but also as an interesting experience for anyone who wants to further their horizons at TUKS and learn its history.
All tours comply with our COVID-19 friendly Bubble Tours, all of which are walking tours of the Hatfield Campus and conducted in English. Bubble Tours are limited to 4 people per guide per hour.
However, we also offer Virtual Tours for when joining us physically isn’t an option. Virtual tours are unlimited to participants and are customised to your interests. Virtual Tours are of all campuses of the University of Pretoria.
