Tours take 2 hours and are offered free of charge as a public service. It begins with a presentation in the auditorium and ends with a bus tour of the 426-acre facility. Please give a week's notice in planning a tour, noting that the tour schedule is heavy. Saturday tours are booked 2-3 weeks in advance. To plan a tour, provide SLAC with the name and makeup of the group, the number of people, the type of transportation used to come to SLAC, and the name, address, and telephone number of the group's contact.
Parking is limited.
Bring a roster of names within the tour group to save time. Evening tours are not available but expanded auditorium presentations can be arranged, depending on availability of an appropriate speaker. Children under 11 years old have not benefited from the tour in the past. If you are planning to arrange a tour for children, please consult the SLAC Public Affairs office.
