My recollection is that they do not allow children on the factory tours anyway
They do not allow children under 16 on a tour. I am doing the factory tour myself on Wednesday, June 6th. Don't know why, but it wasn't that difficult to get in for us---called about 3 weeks ago and tried to get Monday, and they said the first availability they had close to there was Wednesday, so Wed. it is!! :shrug: duno, maybe somebody cancelled or something (we went through Ferrari of Atlanta).
I thought a fellow Fchatter got a tour of the factory with his son (who appeared to be a lot younger than 16).
Maybe on a truly private personal tour arranged by Luca - but not on the regularly scheduled factory tours. I know from personal experience that there is no way they would take a child under 16 on that tour.
i even took my son inside where we were gathering for the tour for the pity factor. told them he would have to go back to the planet by himself (he is 10). They told him to pound sand. strangely, the lambo peolpe don't care. in fact people were comming of the line to give him things as we passed. and i don't even own a lambo. go figure. by the way, they also let him in the pagani factory. don't own one of those either.
Hi, Go to your local Ferrari dealer and ask them to organise a visit for you. It helps if you know them well..!! Regards, Phil.
Or call, write or email them - They will send an application for you to fill out with your information, and requested times. Semd the completed form and a copy of your title or registration to show proof of ownership. All went smoothly with Ferrari North America. Very quick , courteous service from them.
Call FNA at (866) 551-2828 to set it up. A group of 9 of us are going in early April! Doing Maserati, Ferrari and Lambo in a day and a half...

Horay! Got my confirmation just last week from FNA. You don't have to go to your local dealership, just call FNA direct. Here's what they E-mailed me. Dear Mr. Tuason, I am pleased to inform you that you and a guest have been confirmed for a tour of the Ferrari Factory on June 27th, 2008 at 10:00 am. Shortly, I will be shipping you a confirmation packet via FedEx. This packet will contain the pass for you and your guest to enter the Factory for your tour, so please be sure to bring it with you. Detailed directions to the Factory will also be included. Also, please ensure you are on time for your tour, as if you are late, the Factory reserves the right to refuse you admittance in. I suggest arriving at least 10 minutes early for your tour. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions that arise. Best regards, Terra L. Muilenburg Ferrari NA Customer Relationship Assistant Phone: 866.551.2828 Email: [email protected] www.ferrariusa.com
rizzo308 - do yourself a favor and stay at the Planet Hotel directly across the street from the Ferrari main entrance and the Cavallino Ristorante. Hopefully Franco is still running things at the Planet. Let him know you are an owner in town for a factory tour and he will take things from there. A true gentleman and ferraristi.
miketuason - Yes - Dealt with Terra for our visit also. She's the reason I said everything went smoothly. Have to believe rizzo308 has an Australian contact though, rather than an FNA one mentioned in a previous post.
