I'm taking the family on a road trip this upcoming summer and will be passing by the Minot AFB area. We're all civilians but I'm wondering...Are there any Ags up there who would and/or could give us a tour? I'd love to see the North Dakota Buffs in-person!!

The base website says to contact the Base Relations Officer and each request will be evaluated individually. Anybody know someone who could put in a good word?

Why not Minot?

Freezen's the reason!

I think you're SOL. Unless you have a relative there, it's probably not happening.

That being said, if there's an Ag there, and he/she is willing to take a chance with you, you can probably get on. Search the Former Students "Find an Aggie" to see if an old classmate is up there.

Otherwise, look at Google Maps and see if there's a road pullout where you can watch flight ops.

Due to the current fiscal climate and sequestration, base tour availability is being limited for the foreseeable future. Tour requests will have to be handled on a case by case basis. We apologize for any requests that cannot be met due to the current situation..

Please ensure that your tour group has at least 10-15 members. Maximum number allowed is 40 at one time. Special considerations are needed for children under 8.
