Manhattan Project National Historical Park (MAPR) - Hanford - Richland (WA)

5 /5 Steve Russell: History comes alive here. The secretive nature of The Manhattan Project is told during this tour. Seeing the old technology that was used to create the atom bomb was quite interesting. The fact that you are able look at exhibits at your own pace is incredible. Highly recommend this tour.

5 /5 S Reviews: Youll enjoy yourself here if you enjoy history and science. When I went on this tour, I had two people named Rick and Joe. They did a great job of providing information about reactor B. Youll get on a bus and head out to reactor B. The bus ride is between 30 to 45 minutes. The bus does have A/C and a restroom on board. Youll arrive and be instructed to go inside , and then youll start your tour. The facility isnt the biggest historical monument Ive been too but the information from it really makes up for it. Youll have two informative tours. One is in the control room while the other is in the water area. They last around 30 minutes. Bathrooms here are outside in porter Johns. They do provide free water. The temperature inside the facility is warm (80F) . They do have one room with A/C just in case you need to cool down. Snacks inside the building arent allowed but are welcomed on the bus. Also, taking photos is welcomed as well. If you are asking yourself if you should do this? I would say, "Go ahead and go." The cost is free besides the gas to get to the meet point. The information is overwhelming.

5 /5 Bradley Charvet: What an amazing experience. My family and I lived every minute. The team there helped our children and gave them a great experience. The junior ranger program was also awesome. My boys were sworn in at the end of the tour after they figured out all the top secret mysteries.

5 /5 Troy Ferrell: Extremely fascinating and well done tour, amazing that its free by the government. Incredible opportunity to witness the B reactor. Insane the amount of effort, time, money, and manpower that went into building one-site to produce a small amount of material

5 /5 Laura B: Have taken both the B Reactor tour and the Pre-Manhattan Project tour and both were very interesting and informative! The guides have great stories and are knowledgeable. Highly recommend! Bonus we got to see elk!
