It is a self guided tour but still fun. You get a sample and a hat. Great deal on jelly flops! If you like Jelly beans and are driving through highly recommend stopping by to learn some fun history.

My 9 year old son and I recently went on a tour of the Jelly Belly Factory with his Gifted Program and loved it! The tour is self guided, so you can go at any pace you wish. Want to read every single exhibit? Go for it. Rather just look around and participate in the fun interactive stuff? You do you! We enjoyed seeing how Jelly Belly candy was made, reading about its history, and eating all of the delicious beans! We love that they give you a sample and make you wear the fun paper hat. After the tour was over, we went wild in the Gift Shop… which is to be expected! Then, we took the little train over to the Museum. The ride was less than three minutes long; my son wanted to do a few loops! The Museum has a ton of very interesting exhibits. There are antique cars and machines on display, which is super neat! Plus, we went near Halloween and the entire museum was decorated— super cute and thoughtful. I hadn’t been to the Jelly Belly Factory since I was in elementary school, so this was a fun experience for my son and I to enjoy. We’re already planning our next trip with his twin sister and dad! Take the tour, you’ll love it!Parking: Plenty of parking, including charging stations for electric vehicles.Kid-friendliness: This place is made for kids! The tour isn’t just geared toward adults, there are a variety of children-specific activities that they really get a kick out of.

Did the self-guided tour of the factory. The place was amazing! Never seen so many jelly beans in one place! There were 2 million jelly beans in various stages of creation on the floor. Everyone working there was cheerful and happy and glad to provide information. I left amazed at how complex making a jelly bean is. Jelly Belly takes great pride in their creations. It was very nice to see.

Fun place to go with the family. They were all decked out for Halloween and nothing to scary for our 2 year old granddaughter. The museum was also nice to walk through and read about the history of the company and machines that made candy.

Loved visiting the jelly belly factory! It didn’t cost much and was such a relaxed and no rush self tour, plenty of videos to explain what the clearly bored workers were doing. The jelly belly portraits were cool and amazing and built with artistic talent; reminiscent of things I’ve seen done with Legos. Lots and lots of variety to buy, and a free small bag with paid admission. We skipped the train but explored the museum, which went a bit deeper into the history, but not too deep. Overall we spent about 2h and had a fun time.

I was visiting my daughter in the area and she thought this would be a fun outing. I was pleasantly surprised and amazing a little store with the most amazing selection of jelly beans you have ever seen. We went on the tour it wasn't expensive only $7 for an adult had a wonderful time seeing the process and the history the shots I posted will let you know what you see this was a lot of fun.

OMG! This place is fun to take kids too or just go by yourself. We didn't take the tour yet, because kids found confections the wanted and we ate a bbq jelly bean shaped pizza.The welcome to California office is inside and has a lot of good material. Even for those of native to California for generations!

I'm not a sweet guy, but do have a soft spot for Jelly Belly's. Getting a chance to go to the factory was super worth it! The self guided tour was a blast, and the campus, though a little cheesy, was great. Be prepared though, if you like Jelly Belly's, their gift shop is a dream. Pretty easy to overload the wallet with good stuff!

You can take a walk through the history of the Jelly Belly company for only $7 (for adults). The tour was fairly interesting, and you get a little gift bag for the goin on the self-guided tour.You can also buy heavily discounted “belly flops”, which are misshapen jelly beans that they can’t sell in normal packages.

Never been and I have always wanted to go. The tour was awesome (self guided). Learned a bunch of things and got some treats at the end! There was a car show outside that day as well! Double score! Highly recommend stopping in again!

Loved the self guided tour. It is so well done with videos throughout to educate and keep adults and kids engaged the whole family enjoyed.

They ran our tour when the workers weren't working so my was pretty bummed. He wanted to see all the machines at work. They do have videos which helped. They tried to make a seek and find for the kids but it's on the phone. I liked it but it wasn't for my little one.They have a wine and chocolate tasting activity, chocolate shop, museum, and a cafe as well.

This was a lot of fun. For an interesting, educational experience that is indoors the price is very affordable. All of my kids enjoyed seeing how the candy is made. The tour is not too long to lose the interst of the participants. Then of course stopping at the candy shop and getting "souvenirs" is a must. ?

Nice place to bring the family. We all had a great time with the friendly staff. Plus, they have a wonderful chocolate shop with ice cream and many more things. Every kind of jellybean flavor you could imagine. All kinds of gifts and memorabilia. They also have a full restaurant with bean shaped pizza and bean shaped hamburgers. They also have a jelly belly museum on the other side of the parking lot that is free entry if you buy a tour ticket. I think it was 17 dollars per adult for the whole tour. So I really recommend this place for a family outing that could be a short fun trip with just the tour or a couple hours if you check out everything!

Took a drive just to visit this place, they have a nice cafe with a variety of food to eat, from pizza to burgers to Philly cheesesteak to fish and chips. Place was clean and food was good. We got the Philly cheesesteak and fish and chips and the were both good. Lots of different jelly belly's to try and other desserts that looked good but didn't try because we were full from lunch. We didn't do the tour because the factory was shut down, maybe next time.
