If you are representing a school or organization and would like to bring a group of students to visit Hampton, please first read our guidelines on special groups:

Group tours cannot be scheduled online. Please complete the Group Request Form and mail the generated request to the address below at least four (4) weeks in advance of your scheduled tour. Submission of this online form only acts as notification to this office and does not reserve or guarantee your preferred tour date and time.

• Age: All student participants must be at least freshmen in high school. We do not have any formal programming for middle school and elementary school students. Elementary and Middle School students are welcomed to our campus; however, they should select an 11:30 a.m. or 3:30 p.m. session where they will receive a walking tour only.
• Size: The maximum size of each group is 55 visitors, (i.e. a group with 75 visitors is considered TWO GROUPS.)
• Time: Group tours are only available Monday through Friday, we do not offer information sessions and tours on the weekend for groups. The available time for group tours is limited, so please make your request as early as possible to ensure we have availability. If you are planning a group visit during March, April, June, or July, please note that special group accommodations may be limited as there will be a high volume of visitors. Group tours will begin Monday, September 19, 2011 for the 2011 - 2012 academic year.

For each group, there is a $40 reservation fee per bus. Complete the Group Request Form and mail the generated request and registration fee to:
