Anyone who wants to is welcome to go on a guided tour of the Open Factory.
After Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City is considered as the arrival and departure airport for international tourists. The second Tatonka factory is located in the Binh Dinh Province, which is far from the tourist centres and very difficult to visit. Furthermore, the tours of the Open Factory are given in English. Many of the staff in Ho Chi Minh City speak good, clear English.
We kept to the most common holiday period of Saturday to Saturday. As many of the people who go on the tour combine their visit to the Open Factory with a holiday in Vietnam, Friday is the most convenient day. It enables travellers to visit the Tatonka production site on the day before they return home again.
Because the tours are given by active members of staff, and in order to have the minimum impact on daily working life, visits are only possible on Fridays between 10 a.m. and 11.30 a.m. We do offer larger groups the option of visiting the Open Factory on a different day of the week. You can express the desire to do so in the field for other questions or comments when you book. A member of staff at Mountech Co. Ltd. will then contact you.

No. It is only intended to provide us with information.

It is enough if one person in the group makes a booking. You can enter the number of people in the group during the booking process.
No, the number of people provided in the booking is not binding. However, in order to make our planning as efficient as possible, it would help if you made sure the number was as precise as possible.
A tour lasts about 45 minutes, depending on the number of questions you or the other members in your group may have.
Tours are only given in English or Vietnamese. We regret we are not able to give tours in German.
The tour takes visitors through all of the departments in the production facilities of Mountech Co. Ltd. (not including the work sequences completed by external service providers).
There is no limit to the number of people in a tour, but please be sure to inform us if your group consists of more than ten people. This will enable us to organise appropriately and to provide you with a second guide. Please ensure that when you inform us of the number of people in your group, it is as precise as possible.
As a family company, we must and do respect the personal privacy of our employees. Please respect that it is therefore not permitted to take photographs.
