Hi Folks,

Here getting some work done on my 2008 Voyage 32H . While here we went on the factory tour. Simply amazing. I suggest if you are in the area for sightseeing/factory work you do the (2) hour tour. There you will see why you made a wise choice for a RV. Also found out they are building a 45 foot prototype DP.

Lindsay,

Just walk across the street from the service dept building and sign up for the 9:00 AM or 1:00 PM tour at the Visitor Center. Takes about (2) hours. Also check out the small museum in the Visitor Center. Mitchells Bar and Grille about (4) miles north on Rt 69 in Leland has some decent food for lunch. (Only open noon-2:00 PM) and 4-9 PM.

I enjoyed that tour so much I took it the three times we were at the factory, but if you ever get a chance to go to a Grand National Rally you can sign up for tours that take you right down on the factory floor.
They have several different tours available and you can see operations like the roto-molding, aluminum extrusion, and Stitchcraft areas in addition to the "Big Bertha" assembly area tour.

I understand that if you are planning to buy a Winnebago the dealer can request a VIP tour which I believe is similar to the rally tours.
