Disappointing
Rhonda_G
, Oct 2021
I understand no inside tours, but our guide was visibly intoxicated. His speech was off. He actually misjudged his distance and walked forward right into a street sign. Lost his show, and struggled to hold his balance to get the slip on shoe back on. When we went into the store at the end and walked by him, you could easily smell the alcohol on his breath. There were some teenagers on the tour, and a drunk tour guide! He was more concerned with talking about “nuances” than Harvard itself. Not worth the money.
