Went of their website and found out that this fulfillment center was offering tours and I booked our group for a tour. Arriving for our 10:30am tour, we drove in the facility and Amazon had several large building. Following our Google maps, we arrived at the building for the tour. There were several signs along the way that directed you to the Amazon Tours guest entrance. We waited at the lobby with other tour guests until the tour guides came out, where you showed your ID and they checked you in. We were led to a meeting room and our tour guides gave us a tour overview and rules and we saw a quick film. During the tour we wore headsets to hear our tour guide speak and questions from the tour guests. The processes at the fulfillment center spans from Inbound Dock, Receive (receipt of products), Stow (storage of products), Pick (how the product ordered is picked), Pack (how the picked item is packed), SLAM (how packaged is scanned, labeled, applied and manifested), Ship (package shipping) and Deliver (package is delivered). During the tour, we saw the process from Stow to SLAM. We saw the shelving unit pods and how robots carried the pods to the picker. We saw how a worker scanned and stowed the products in the pods. We saw how workers packed the product into boxes and then it moved down the belt to the SLAM. We saw the Batman robot move bins of products into pallets for shipment to other fulfillment centers. Our tour guide, Chris, was personable and answered our questions to the best of this abilities. Once he did not know the answer, but he went to a worker on the floor for the answer. The tour lasted 90 minutes and we received an Amazon shopping bag as a parting gift. It was an informative tour and now I know how a package gets to me after I select an item and place my order. Be on time for your tour as you cannot join if you are late. No pictures allowed except at the shelving unit pods at the start of the tour.

Worth noting: you are on long train with 3-4 different experiences and it seems you get different things depending on what you paid for. The my may have a tea, beer train, wine train, etc. We were in the back of the train and got the slowest service and stuck in a car with no AC. Ended up on the open air car and it was nicer. you might be better off paying for the base price; buy a drink or two and call it a day. Don't expect gourmet food here; bring a picnic and eat outside before/after your trip.

Boba Tea train: There were a number of issues with this…read moreexcursion. First off, most of the tea samples came with little to no ice and were somewhat warm. This made some of the undrinkable. Others were somewhat warm cloyingly sweet as to be unpleasant. Overall, though both of us are fans of boba tea- we would suggest a different vendor or more training for the staff preparing the samples. Roughly half of the flavors were not good at all. Additionally, they listed "boozy" flavors on the menu but never said anything about how to get those or whether they were included. Second problem- we preordered dumplings as did apparently a LOT of people. There were no dumplings on the train, only rice bowls. Furthermore- the waitress didn't know what we were talking about when we mentioned having preordered food. At least half of the tables in our car had preordered dumplings and were very disappointed. There was no information on how to obtain a refund if we didn't want the substitute of a rice bowl. About halfway through our trip, the train lost power which included lights, air conditioning, and the ability to flush toilets. Power stayed off with no explanation for more than 15 minutes, causing the car to become very warm and stuffy. Overall, this excursion suffered from lack of communication, lack of staff training, lack of preparation on the part of the organizers. Given the cost, I would not recommend this.

Storer rarely answers the phone when there is a need and when they do I have more times than not, been met with an incredibly rude person who talks over me, doesn't hear my concerns and jumps to conclusions.

We are just asking for Storer to be kind, thoughtful and mindful of who they are transporting and listen to the concerns of special needs parents.

Adjacent was a play area with colored scarves, a pretend campfire, felt board for the children to explore, and books. Before entering the museum area Anna gave an introductory talk describing what to expect. She made it interactive which was very nice. They also did a song to get their wiggles out. She then guided the group through the museum to the carpeted area with cushions for the kiddos. Ana talked about and asked questions about the art on the walls. She read Under the Same Sky to the children and made this an interactive experience also. It was just the right length of time, thirty minutes. This was just right for our 18 month old grandson.
