The University of Waikato offers regular campus tours throughout the academic year, providing prospective students and their whānau with an opportunity to experience the university's facilities, learning spaces, and campus environment firsthand. This particular series of tours runs on Fridays through October and November 2026, each session lasting one hour from 1:00pm to 2:00pm. Campus tours are a valuable step in the tertiary planning process, giving visitors a chance to see lecture theatres, libraries, student support services, accommodation options, and specialist facilities across the university's academic divisions. The University of Waikato, ranked number one in New Zealand for research, offers a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, and the campus tour provides an ideal opportunity to get a feel for what studying at Waikato would be like in practice. For secondary school career advisors and guidance counsellors, these tours can also serve as a useful professional resource—helping them provide informed, first-hand advice to students considering Waikato as a study destination. Prospective students are encouraged to register in advance, and the tours are offered free of charge.
