Itinerary

Stop 1

4 hours Admission included

Your tour begins in Mukilteo, just north of Seattle, at the Future of Flight Aviation Center. This is your gateway into the world of modern aerospace, with interactive exhibits that let you test your skills on flight simulators, examine real aircraft engines up close, and learn how engineers solve the challenges of building commercial jets. Large viewing windows and hands-on displays make the exhibits engaging for kids and adults alike, whether you know a lot about planes or nothing at all.

Depending on the day's schedule and seat availability, you may also join the Boeing Everett Factory Tour, taking you inside the largest building in the world by volume. Board a guided tram and travel through the working assembly lines where Boeing's wide-body jets, including the 747, 767, 777, and 787 Dreamliner, come together piece by piece. It's a rare, behind-the-scenes look at the scale and precision of modern aircraft manufacturing, and a highlight for most guests who join the tour.
The Museum of Flight

4 hours Admission included

Your next stop is The Museum of Flight, located at Boeing Field south of downtown Seattle. Home to one of the largest independent collections of aircraft and spacecraft in the world, the museum offers hours of discovery for aviation and space enthusiasts alike. Walk beneath a full-size Concorde, step aboard the original Air Force One, and get up close to a space shuttle trainer once used by NASA astronauts.

From early flying machines to modern jets and rockets, the museum's galleries trace the full arc of aviation and space exploration. With hands-on exhibits, historic cockpits, and rare aircraft on display, there's plenty to hold the attention of kids, history buffs, and aerospace fans throughout your visit.
