    About this experience

    We are excited to announce the return of our Boeing Factory Tour beginning January 2026. We paused this tour during the global pandemic, but we’re back and better than ever. A few years ago, our company was ranked “Top 20 in the USA” by TripAdvisor/Viator—the only bus tour in Seattle to receive this distinction. On our Boeing Factory Tour experience, you’ll visit the historic launch site of Boeing’s very first airplane, built in 1916. The facility is truly massive—the largest steel structure in the world—with aircraft hangar doors as long as a football field. It is the only facility in North America where you can witness the construction of new commercial aircraft. Boeing’s Gallery features a variety of exhibits showcasing both current and emerging Boeing products and services, and you’ll also have the opportunity to do some plane-spotting from Boeing’s Skydeck. The Boeing Factory Tour itself is conducted by Boeing’s professional guides inside the manufacturing facility.

    Great half day out @ Boeing

    Earl was great fun and the consummate host/driver and raconteur (be sure to ask him about his acting career). We enjoyed the banter and I enjoyed teaching him some Aussie slang!! Sticky beak etc…. Cheers mate!!

    A place to visit while in Seattle.

    It was great to have the opportunity to visit the Boeing Co. However, I believe that the time allocated for the experience was not enough. Maybe a bit longer would have been a better fit.

    Response from the operator: Thanks Wilfrdo for the feedback, perhaps I will start the tour earlier, and on your particular tour when I was picking up at the Hyatt Regency in Seattle one of the guests could not find her wallet, which delayed our departure time, turns out she had left it behind the couch in the hotel room. And you were staying in Bellevue which added a little more time to the transportation part of the tour. Currently I am the only one that picks up in Bellevue, but I will take your comment into consideration. Thank you so much for the feedback. Earl

    Boeing Factoy Tour from Downtown Seattle with guide: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Seattle.

    How much does Boeing Factoy Tour from Downtown Seattle with guide cost?

    +

    Prices start at $135 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Seattle usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Boeing Factoy Tour from Downtown Seattle with guide take?

    +

    Plan for about 4.3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Seattle is not rushed.

    Is Boeing Factoy Tour from Downtown Seattle with guide worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 37 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Seattle, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Boeing Factoy Tour from Downtown Seattle with guide?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Boeing Factoy Tour from Downtown Seattle with guide suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4.3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Boeing Factoy Tour from Downtown Seattle with guide?

    +

    Around 13 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Seattle can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Seattle and add a light layer if any part of the 4.3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Boeing Factoy Tour from Downtown Seattle with guide start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Seattle within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Seattle?

    +

    Seattle's best days leave the city: Mount Rainier, the San Juans, Olympic National Park and Snoqualmie Falls are all day-trip range, and each one lives or dies on the driver-guide. In town, Pike Place food tours, underground history walks and harbour cruises dominate. Our ranking favours operators with small vans over full coaches on the mountain runs. On Outty we rank every Seattle experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mt. Rainier Day Tour from Seattle, Seattle City and Snoqualmie Falls Half-Day Guided Tour, Mt. Rainier National Park Highlights Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Seattle?

    +

    June to September for clear Rainier views and reliable ferry weather. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Seattle?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
