In-Person Amazon Fulfillment Center Tours
How does an Amazon warehouse really work?
Come meet us and find out for yourself! Did you know that Amazon fulfillment centers are far more than a traditional warehouse? Some of our buildings are as large as 28 football fields, and can hold millions of products at one time. They are bright, huge buildings with orange robots transporting towers of goods, miles of conveyor belts carrying inventory in every direction, and shipping labels practically flying onto boxes, blown by puffs of air. On a tour, you will see how products in your online shopping cart get from Amazon to you. It’s a symphony of people and technology that allows us to deliver orders quickly and efficiently to customers around the world.
Cutting-edge technology
Amazon Tours allow you to see different types of robots in action and explain how they make the fulfillment process more efficient! Robots not only benefit the people who work alongside them, by reducing the distance we walk. They also improve the shopping experience for our customers by allowing us to hold more inventory and process orders more quickly.
The robots are incredibly smart, but they aren’t competing for jobs—they’re creating them. Robots enable more inventory to pass through our fulfillment centers, which means more employees are needed for handling that inventory. Since 2012, we have added tens of thousands of robots to our fulfillment centers, while also adding hundreds of thousands of full-time jobs globally.

Come meet Amazon, in person!
You will meet the people working to fulfill customer orders and learn about the benefits and professional development opportunities available for Amazon employees. One highlight is Career Choice, a program that helps pre-pay tuition and fees for coursework in high-demand career areas.
Tour Guides are all actual Amazon employees that work at the fulfillment centers in a variety of roles and can speak to what it’s like to work at Amazon based on their firsthand experience.
