Went here during Memorial Day Weekend 2009. Drive is about 30-45 mins from downtown Seattle. The tour meets in the museum. From there, you board a bus that takes you into the Boeing Factory behind a chain linked fence. Leave your cameras in the car of in the lockers as they are not allowed on the tour due to the... more

You need to do both the Boeing factory tour and the general exhibition to take in this place. Amatuer and professional interests in aviation will be well catered for here. The factory tour takes 90 minutes and is awesome in the true and original meaning of this word. The future of flight museum is excellent. Allow 3 hours to see... more

When visiting the Boring Factory, be sure to leave your kids, Cell Phone, Camera, Curiosity and Appetite at home. First and foremost kids are not allowed on the Boeing Tour and and visitor center will bore them to death. They may enjoy the mock-up of an old 727 cockput, but that will not amuse them for an hour while the... more

Read mixed reviews for this tour before we went and although it would be much better value if you could drive there as the entry is reasonable but we had to do a tour for transport which made it much more expensive. Still having said that, it was worth the money & time spent getting there. It's an amazing place,... more

Frequent fliers & those with a reasonable interest in commercial avaiation need to do this tour, but it could be so much better. The plant itself could have used more displays from the airliners, like additional cross sections, maybe a wing or engine. The building is amazing in its size, but it is a working, running plant, not meant for... more

We took a tour of the Boeing factory in Everett, which is just about 40 minutes north of Seattle. If you are in the Seattle area with some time to sight see, I would consider this a must see attraction that will provide you with entertainment for hours! First, my father and I are extremely fascinated by airplanes and wanted... more

I'm not sure what other reviewers expect at a modern manufacturing facility, but I found this museum and tour of the huge Boeing assembly plant very well done and very interesting. Yes, they are adamant that you cannot take phones, cameras, etc., but why should that be a surprise? One man on our bus finally handed over a cell phone... more

Highlights * Facing a non-working airplane simulator * Poorly designed Future of Flight Musuem * Subpar cafeteria * Literally tens of warnings to not take on your person anything electronic: you need to leave in your car (at own peril) or in a provided locker your mobile, iPod and other sundries * Timed tour begins with an incredibly poor quality... more

Based on the negative and lukewarm reviews here my wife and I almost skipped this tour. Fortunately we decided to give it a chance, and ended up really enjoying it. Perhaps we're easily impressed, but the airplane assembly lines were fascinating to us. We were brought up to an observation deck at two different points in the factory, allowing us... more

The only thing saving me from leaving a "Terrible" rating for this tour is that I know the rude Tour Guide we had, Jackie Swilley (sp?), doesn't reflect the hard work, talent and dedication of the 30,000 other employees at the Boeing Everett Facility. Jackie Swilley was the Boeing employee in charge of our 2:00 pm Factory Tour on Thursday,... more
