Yard Tour

Yard Tour Overview

A Yard Tour typically refers to a guided or self-exploratory visit of a specific yard area—this could be a construction yard, shipyard, train yard, railyard, or even a lumber or salvage yard—depending on the context. These tours are often tailored for educational, industrial, or business purposes, giving visitors an inside look at the operations, equipment, and daily workflow of the site.

If you’re referring to a landscaped yard or garden tour, that would be more focused on home improvement, garden design, and outdoor aesthetics.
