Harley-Davidson Vehicle Operations

Very informative FREE factory tour from forming gas tanks and fenders out of raw steel to the finished motorcycle being started and tested at the end of the line. Very friendly tour guides answer questions and give a detailed explanation of the process. On site store with lots of location specific souvenirs. Definitely worth the trip

Great place to visit. I took the steal toe tour in 2009 and I loved it. I live a breathe Harley Davidson motorcycles. I cant wait to cone back and visit again. I hope this plant will start the vehicle operations tours up again soon.

Went to the Factory for a 1:00 tour ( I read the brochure that recommended reservations! ) I got there early enough for a free 10:15 tour also. Well worth it!! Very informative and the Steel toe tour was well worth the money asked! Don't know why others gave poor reviews? Everyone was very friendly and easy to deal with! Just follow the rules and you get quite a enjoyable time!!

We went twice, The first time we could only take the short free tour because they were in the process of model change. The next year we went back earlier in the year and took the steel toe tour. It was great. Luckily we didn't take our bike or my husband would of traded it in on the spot. Had a great time. Go for the free tour or the paid both were great.

I love my 2017 fxse cvo Breakout its such a Beautiful bike thanks for making such a quality bike ,and the customer service was great while I was under warranty thanks Harley-davidson 😀

The tour is amazing. Tour guides are great. Excellent gift shop. Good restrooms. Highly Recommended if you like motorcycles or just seeing a good old fashioned American factory assembly line with robots, lasers cutting metal, and presses at work. Really cool!

Booked the steel toe tour for what I thought would be a nice thing in our trip for my husband. I was wrong .. ..I enjoyed it as much if not more than he did. We toured at 12noon 9/13/16 with Don. He was excellent....very knowledgeable about the bikes being built. But he got us to areas as they were working and not on break. He was terrific at answering questions. Ok to those of you reading this post Rob who runs the tour center does an excellent job but read the website info first. I can't tell you how ill prepared some folks were and to watch them get a bit riled was almost amusing. Don't be THOSE people..... read the directions first ....then come tour.....it will make your tour actually happen and keep you safe. He and his staff are not rude or impatient; there are rules and they want you safe.

Worth the price. The free plant tour is a great opportunity to see an American Manufacturing plant in operation and understand first hand the exceptionalism of the American worker. Beautiful plant, well maintained and friendly folks; the tour is professionally guided with audio sets for ease of hearing. You can take the paid tour with greater detail but avoid the month of July and part of August. Parts of the plant are removed from the tour due to protecting next model year role out.

Again well worth stopping for the experience especially if you love HD motorcycles or American manufacturing.

took the "steel toe" tour...awesome experience! our guide, Fred, was very entertaining and informative. If you are a motorcycle enthusiast, you will love this tour. If you have any interest in fabrication and manufacturing processes, you will love this tour. for me, it was well worth the $38 to see how these beautiful machines are assembled and if I'm ever in York PA again, I will definitely do the tour...lots to see.

I've never had a bad experience there. I go at least twice a year. Steel toe tour is Awesome! The staff has been able to answer any questions the groups had. I've taken friends of mine several times and never had a bad experience.

My husband and I really enjoyed today's tour. Bobby H our tour guide was awesome! Knowledgable and delivered the information in a very engaging manner. We definitely recommend making the trip for this tour.

I've visited and toured all three HD manufacturing facilities (the York factory twice) and I've thoroughly enjoyed each one. The guides and other personnel are always informative and friendly.
In reading the other reviews posted here, I'm in disbelief about the issues people complain about here. All of the tour times, dates, rules and restrictions are clearly posted on the HD website!
I'm very appreciative of HD for making these free tours available to the public and am planning another visit soon!

Took the steel toe tour on Monday, 8/31/2015.
what a great experience. the attention to quality was number 1 throught the entire plant. if you want to see what makes a Harley a Harley, you must take the tour.
Great people, great care taken to insure that the bikes they build are No I in quality and craftmanship.
i was very impressed. You can't go wrong on this.
A must do on any bucket list.

We took the steel toe tour with Barry from England. Just my wife and I with one other couple. The small group allowed lots of questions. Barry is retired but was an electronic engineer during his career so he offered great depth of knowledge on many of the processes. From the robotic welding to the details of the painting rooms. I have toured many manufacturing plants this was one of the best tours I've done. As a side tour we also toured Gettysburg battlefield, it's about 40 miles from the plant. We know are planning our trip to Milwakee to tour the engine assembly plant and museum.

For those wondering, the plant tour will not reopen until sometime in 2024

A great experience you wont be disappointed. Thanks to Bob tour guide

Did one of the coolest tours here back in 2014, it was awesome to learn more about Harley Davidsons heritage as well as the quality and care that goes into the hand assembling of every single bike. Incredible process and awesome facilities.

The steel toe tour will amaze you if you're a motorcycle fan or not.

This was a very interesting place to visit. Not only do you get to see a place that employees thousands of people, but you also get to witness modern manaufacting in progress.

This place is gigantic and they use every inch of it to build their motorcycles. We watched in awe as Robotic lifts transported each vehicle all throughout the assembly line.

Yoou'll get to witness the motorcycle start from an empty frame, weave through dozens of stations as workers attach thousands of pieces, and to the finished product being tested.

It's a very cool experience that you should try to see.

Super cool place ! Really friendly staff :)

I love factory tours and this one doesn't disappoint. When it opens back up, don't miss it. So much fun.
