Due to mission requirements, we are unable to support base tours until August 2011
Requesting a Tour
Public tours of Joint Base Andrews are available to groups of 10 to 40 people. For safety reasons, children under the age of 10 are not allowed. Groups requesting a tour must complete the Tour Request Form and e-mail it to 11wg.comrel@afncr.af.mil. Tour requests must be submitted no later than 30 days prior to the date of the tour. Requests must be submitted through the 11th Wing Public Affairs Office and are accepted up to six months in advance. Tours are coordinated one month in advance. These guided tours are available at 9 a.m. and are subject to limited availability. Tours are given Monday through Friday only. A particular day of the week may be requested, but there is no guarantee that a tour will be available on that day until your tour is confirmed. No tours will be given on weekends or federal holidays. Tours are free of charge. Please note tours may be subject to last-minute cancellations due to mission requirements.
For additional information, call 240-612-6368 or e-mail 11wg.comrel@afncr.af.mil.
Tour Itinerary
Tours start at 9 a.m. and are scheduled for a maximum of 3 hours. Tours of Joint Base Andrews may include any of the various organizations on base to include static displays and demonstrations, however, no particular activities can be guaranteed. There are no tours of Air Force One. Every effort will be made to honor your request but, ultimately, we work around our daily operations schedule. If mission dictates, a tour may be cancelled at any time, without notice. There will be no substitutions during these cases.
Transportation
Groups are responsible for transportation large enough to carry the entire group - only ONE vehicle per group. THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS and groups arriving in more than one vehicle will be turned away at the gate. All buses/vans must arrive at the Pearl Harbor Gate for security processing. Confirm vehicle used and gate before arriving. Buses will be met at the Pearl Harbor Gate by the Andrews Tour Ambassador who will accompany the group onboard the bus and will remain with them for the duration of the tour.
Cameras
Cameras are allowed on the tour; however, there are some restrictions. Your tour guide will inform you of these restrictions.
