Advance reservations or notice are not required for school groups. Factory Tours begin at 9:15 a.m. and the last tour of the day starts at 4 p.m. Same pricing applies. We can take up to 60 people at a time to start the tour. If you have a large group (more than 60), please plan to break them into groups of 60 or less. For example, if you have 100 people taking the tour, plan on approximately 50 people to start the tour and 5-6 minutes later the remaining balance will begin their tour.
