New Tour Featuring the History of Harvard Athletics

Trademark Tours Launches New Private Tour exploring the robust history of athletics at Harvard University

Trademark Tours today announces the launch of their newest private walking tour, The Harvard Athletics Tour. This new private tour complements their existing public tour of the area, The Hahvahd Tour, which is currently ranked as the #1 Tour and Attraction in Cambridge on TripAdvisor and celebrating their 10th anniversary season this year. Led by current Harvard students and athletes, the new tour will explore Harvard’s athletic facilities and entertain guests with stories about the history of the Harvard athletics program and its influence on modern collegiate sports.

As guest explore spots like the Harvard Stadium, Weld Boathouse and the Lavietes Basketball Pavilion among others, they will learn about famous Harvard Athletes that graced the fields and courts as well as the titles that Harvard teams have earned over the years. In addition, guests will get the inside scoop about the Harvard-Yale rivalry and discover the origins of the famous competition and how it helped to shape modern football.

“Over the past 10 years, our tour guests have been asking for more and more of Harvard and the Cambridge area, so we decided to expand our offerings to the highly-regarded, but often overlooked Harvard Athletics,” says Daniel Andrew, CEO of Trademark Tours. “There is some amazing history and stories behind the Harvard Athletics department and we couldn’t be happier to guide guests through this journey to experience it firsthand and learn all about it!”
