TOURS & EXPERIENCES

This hour fifteen-minute tour is a top to bottom exploration of El Reloj, the only cigar factory still in operation in Cigar City, (Tampa, FL). This tour takes guests through the process of cigar making both by hand and on antique cigar machines, the Newman family legacy, the history of Cigar City, and much more. Three stories high, and one city-block long, this historic cigar factory will please cigar enthusiasts, history buffs, and those with interests in manufacturing and technology. The cost for the tour is $15 for Adults, and $12 for Seniors, Students, and Veterans.

This tour is available Monday throguh Friday at 9:30 a.m., 11:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m.. Due to cigar production, these are the only times we can accommodate tours. To ensure your desired tour time is available, please pre-book your tour below.

Overtime Tours

Periodically, we run production overtime to catch up on cigar orders for our customers. On these days, it affords us the rare opportunity to offer factory tours on a Saturday! While our tour still includes a stop on the Handrolling Floor with a detailed description of the processes taking place there, please note, no hand rollers will be present for this tour. Due to the limited staffing in the production areas, we have lowered the ticket price from $15/person to $10.

*IMPORTANT NOTE: Overtime tours follow the same path as our standard weekday tours but only some production areas will be staffed, depending on our current needs. The rollers operating our antique, hand-operated machines will be working but no handrollers will be present on the cigar floor. Additionally, the Factory Store will only be open for tour guests.
