A free, guided tour of the Taylor factory is given every Monday through Friday at 1 p.m. (excluding holidays). To take the tour, no appointment is necessary. Simply check-in at the receptionist desk in the lobby of our main building at least 5-10 minutes before 1 p.m. to ensure that you don’t miss the tour. Because of the popularity of the tour, if you are bringing a group, please keep your party to a maximum of eight people.

The Taylor Guitars factory tour takes guests through the steps of guitar construction. From wood selection to final assembly, guests will experience each process as a guitar evolves from raw wood into a finished instrument. While not physically demanding, the tour does include a fair amount of walking. Due to the technical nature, the tour may not be suitable for small children. The tour lasts approximately one hour and 15 minutes and departs from the main building at 1980 Gillespie Way in El Cajon, California. Map / Directions
