What To Expect

Silicon Valley

Our first stop on this whirlwind trip will be to 1 Hacker Way, home to the tech giant, Facebook. You’ll be sure to get a lot of ‘likes’ from putting your thumbs up and snapping a pic in front of the Facebook sign! While we can’t disrupt the employees, you’ll get to see where all the magic happens from the outside. Who knows, maybe Mark Zuckerberg will pass by!

Google Android Lawn Statues

Next we’ll explore Googleplex, the technological playground which makes up the Google Campus. From a volleyball court, life-sized chess, on-site haircuts and food options galore, you might find yourself getting envious of these ‘Googlers’ (as employees are affectionately known). The expansive Googleplex is also home to the Android Statue Garden. Each colorful candy sculpture looks good enough to eat and represents an Android operating system. Play around on the fun sculptures before checking out the Google Merch Store. Unfortunately closed on Saturdays, for tours running Wednesday, Thursday & Friday you’ll be able to take home some colorful Google swag.

Computer History Museum

The Computer History Museum, where you’ll take a walk through four decades of collected computing technology– including one of the world’s first computers. This extensive and detailed museum will immerse you in everything computers, from graphics to games.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

I think the company need to take a look at this tour. We went to the computer museum which was fantastic but we needed more time. Three hours would be good. We only had two hours which included lunch at the cafe. There is also a shop at the museum. Other features included visiting the Facebook sign outside their premises, walking between some Google buildings and visiting the Apple visitors centre. Shops were available at Google and Apple. The cost was $149 per person. We really appreciated seeing Palo Alto.

this is not really a tour and hence expensive. do not get me wrong, we had a good time, as we were only with the 2 of us. A personalized taxi-ride to the tech valley. visited Facebook ( outside), Google ( campus) and apple ( campus and shop). We also visited the tech museum that was ok but not spectacular and had lunch in Palo Alto.

It's ok if you want to go take your picture with the FB like and see the Google buildings. However, don't expect much more.
