Have you ever wondered where armored trucks get or take their money? On this 90-minute private Fed Tour, you will see where they pick up the money from the Fed during the vault tour that shows money counting and tracking activities. The Fed Center in San Francisco has the most comprehensive U.S. currency collection available for public viewing. Also, it has a world-class U.S. currency exhibit with items from the Revolutionary War period with Benjamin Franklin's signature and Paul Revere's (both engravers). We will learn about all this and much more on our tour, led by a Fed employee who is also active in HCSF.

Please note: Bring an I.D. (driver's license or passport, not required for children.) We will meet in the lobby at 12:45. Our tour guide will check I.D.'s and we will got through security and a metal detector before beginning our 1p tour. Because of security concerns, you will be asked to leave your hats, purses, cell phones, cameras, briefcases, etc., in a secure locked room during the tour.

The parking entrance is from Spear Street. Or for a flat rate there are parking lots located two blocks south of the Bank at Main and Folsom.
