Well worth a visit
Exceptionally well laid out exhibits, with informative guides on hand to provide additional information. I am not an aviation enthusiast but spent over 2 hours here and would highly recommend it to anyone. The in house cafe is also excellent for a light lunch afterwards.

Thank you, Corinne. It is wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the museum. It is even more meaningful that you are not an aviation enthusiast and still stayed engaged for more than two hours! We appreciate you taking the time to post a review.

Excellent exhibition
This was recommended by an airbnb host so we thought why not! It was excellent. The planes and models were fabulous and so much to learn about the speed of aircraft development as a result of WW1. The models all came from Peter jacksons company and having seen the Gallipoli ex hibition 6 years ago we knew they would be fabulous. It's a little hard to follow the flow but a good afternoon out and a lot of knowledge gained.

Amazing- A Must See
The displays were excellent with lots of information and interesting stories. We were there for 2 1/2 hours and felt it was great value for money. Peter Jackson has ensured this is a truly world class exhibition.

Excellent experience!
Awesome exhibits & information, presented in an interesting & engaging way. Peter Jackson & his workers are amazing, creating wonderful life like scenes that present the war stories in such a memorable manner. Will be visiting again as there is so much to learn. Great cafe with plenty of outdoor seating in a lovely setting.
