The best way to experience and discover what being a Lincoln Lion is like, is to see it for yourself. Lion Campus Tours are designed to provide you with an opportunity to explore our beautiful 422-acre campus. As a Lion Tour participant you will be greeted by a Student Ambassador, who will guide you on a scenic tour as they share the rich history of Lincoln, our world class programs, resources, facilities, and student life.
Lion Campus Tours are offered as traditional walking tours for families and groups as well as a drive-thru tour experience. Reservations are required to participate in all available forms of Lion Campus Tours.
