Thousands of people visit Nellis each year because of the variety of missions that may be found here. Touring Nellis' different units are a great way to learn our mission and learn the different jobs we do here at Nellis. Tours may be an excellent educational tool for groups interested in learning more about the United States Air Force. We welcome you to take a glimpse of life behind the gates.

• Tours are given at the discretion of Nellis AFB. Nellis is not obligated to give tours on request.
• All tours must be mission driven and will not be accepted if Nellis does not see a mission connection (This is determined by Nellis public affairs)
• Public affairs approved tours are scheduled Monday - Friday during normal business hours (8 a.m. to 4 p.m.). No tours will be offered on the weekends or holidays.
