Located in an area reminiscent of Monterey's Cannery Row. Very interesting and informative tour and warm and delicious tortilla offered to those that enter. I highly recommend stopping in.

Very interesting to see how the tortillas are made. The free samples are very good. Worth a short walk-through.

A good pit stop on the way to Screamin...the little round tortilla's smell good and the FREE samples are fresh and very tasty.

They noticed my birthday button and gave me a bag of tortillas with a big "happy birthday"

Don't pass the tortilla factory or the bakery without trying them. The Mission tortilla factory is actually fun! A very california feel. The video dioramas are the coolest. You can't beat a fresh, warm tortilla! Mmm, Mmm.

Mmmm, tortilla... (holds head backwards with mouth wide open and drools while making gurgling noises)

This was interesting, if nothing else

its nice to learn about tortillas, see how they are made and then get to taste them there too.

We enjoyed the tour. Short line, friendly cast, interesting presentation, free samples. What's not to like??
Sure, it isn't an E-ticket, but does every attraction have to be?


User ID: videoogamer10   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (4/13/2003)
Ok, not the best thing to hit DCA, but at least you get free tortillas at the end of the tour. But come on i live in California, tortillas are like a every day thing for me.

This was pretty boring and when we were there on Labor Day weekend, there was no tortilla at the end. It seems like something else could be done with this to improve it. When we were there, it was a ghost town!

This wasn't as bad as I had expected.

The Cast Members had been conditioned by Nov 2002 to expect a lukewarm reception. They did allright, though.

I liked the 3D windows showing the tortilla making. Imagineering could have made it plainer that the same film was being shown in ALL the windows.

When I first went, I REALLY hated since I got into a fight with a sibling. The next time I went, I enjoyed my tortilla, but that was IT...

User ID: BABOOM   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (8/31/2002)
my tour guide gave a 2 min tour.

User ID: DisneylandFreak   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (5/30/2002)
Free tortillas!

User ID: JDS88Chevy   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (4/26/2002)
Good tour, had a great demonstrater at the end. We talked about this and that for about 10 min.

User ID: indyxena   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (4/25/2001)
Not sure why DCA has factory tours? This one is very short and the reward is a FREE warm tortilla hot off the machine at the end. Kids loved the snack. The test kitchen was silly and didn't give us any tips. Personally think other attractions should replace the factory tours.

User ID: Futurist   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (4/8/2001)
Keeping an open mind, this short EXHIBIT is (taken for what it's worth) is worth at least one visit to see the dioramas, get a free tortilla, and you are out in a jiff.

User ID: keithles   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (3/30/2001)
not much to see in there.

User ID: KevAct1   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (3/25/2001)
While this isn't a true "attraction," you can eat a free lunch from Disney with the free Tortillas!

User ID: Pullman   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (3/22/2001)
The kitchen demo at the end of the tour was interesting -- especially when the chef made taquitos!

User ID: Pullman   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (3/22/2001)
Maybe the kids I was with are just weird, but they loved this and went back a 2nd time to get another fresh tortilla!

User ID: JenniBarra   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (3/15/2001)
The part of the tour with the monitors was very interesting. The fresh tortilla was very yummy!

You're kidding right?

User ID: lindsy   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (2/25/2001)
Spiffy diorama and the sample was great! The lady showing how to make a Mickey in the tortilla was pretty cool, too.

User ID: dlport   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (2/17/2001)
A short but informative tour. The free tortilla at the end made this jump from a "1" to a "2"!

User ID: tsantacruz   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (2/12/2001)
Very Short. The free tortilla at the end was very tasty.

User ID: trent24   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (2/12/2001)
I gave it a 2 just because i was hungry and didnt want to pay $8 for a snack.

User ID: cheryl   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (2/7/2001)
We enjoyed the food demonstration.

User ID: retlawfan   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 1 (2/7/2001)
Not bad, but not very exciting either. Might be a nice(although brief) escape from the heat on a warm day.

User ID: carolann8   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (2/6/2001)
Neat tour. Little people at the beginning were cool!Liked the demo at the end.

User ID: dumptv   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (2/5/2001)
Short and sweet- a little history, then you walk by a big tortilla making machine. They should have shown people making them by hand, also, like at my local mexican restaurant. we got a half of tortilla at the end- it was very fresh and yummy.

User ID: Nectarmaiden   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (2/4/2001)
Very interesting, even for someone who grew up watchng tortillas being made.

User ID: boscal   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 1 (2/4/2001)
This "attraction" is sad.

User ID: Brer Rabbit   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (2/4/2001)
Definitely not an incredible attraction, but informative and a great place to get FREE deLICIOUS tortillas.

User ID: KarenW2   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 1 (2/2/2001)
Ho hum. Not much here.
