EXCELLENT Based on 296 reviews rossijam2024-11-01 Enjoyable morning Enjoyable morning, spent at the museum, plenty of interesting aircraft to walk around, and some interesting artefacts about former RAF Horsham St Faith and the RAF history and civilian history of the airfields.There is a cafe too selling hot drinks and snacks, which was useful as the wind was chilly.You can see aircraft landing and taking off at Norwich Airport. which adds to the experience.We spent a good 2 hours here.A great morning well spent Sightsee516367008552024-08-23 Great couple of hours out Informative museum exhibit, lots of information. Nice cafe. You can even go onto some of the planes and have a talk. Free parking too Mark2024-08-22 Family visit Great museum plenty to see very well priced,staff very friendly and helpful and knowledgeable about the exhibits,highly recommended. jameswatling2024-08-20 Superb Museum The amount on offer here is incredible, such a depth of local aviation history is on display, that one visit simply isn't enough! There are guided tours too of some of the aircraft and we purchased a tour of the Nimrod. The tour guide, Nick was so knowledgeable and engaging, it was a highlight of the experience. The prices are very good too, not just admission but also the café and tour prices. Plenty to do hear, the kids loved it and this big kid can't wait to go back soon! Maarten v2024-07-28 Go and see Another magnificent aviation museum. Very nice collection and on the day it was possbile to get a tour in and around the Nimrod. Very nice by a well knowledgeable volunteer. Happy to have booked the tour. All other staff also very friendly and great little cafe too. Do visit. Lenny W2024-07-16 Superb aviation museum. Superb museum, well worth a visit if you’re in Norfolk. The tours of the Vulcan and Nimrod were, for me anyway, the highlight of the day.It’s great to support these smaller museums as they do more for aircraft preservation at times than the larger museums. A bit thumbs up to all the volunteers who do such a great job looking after these historic aircraft. George R2024-05-28 Small but more than makes up for it! This was a small but very in-depth style of museum, the staff were so lovely and it was clear they cared about the museum and its history! I’d recommend this museum and more specifically the Vulcan tour, for £3 it’s very worth your money, the tour guide was very helpful and explained the aircraft and its history in great detail!It was small, but even so, the variety of aircraft was a breath of fresh air for sure. Thoroughly recommend! chaswell652024-05-18 A very good aviation museum. This is a bit of a hidden gem near Norwich airport. Definitely take the time to visit here whatever your age or interest in aviation, there is something for everyone. With new exhibits being added due to another local museum having to closed. Try and visit on a dry day to appreciate the aircraft outside but don't let the rain stop you as there is plenty inside to see and a lovely café area to dodge the rain in. You can also pay separately for a tour on some of the aircraft which you can book on the day. Great afternoon out. Hayley N2024-05-03 Rainy day fun Amazing place run by a lovely team of volunteers, so much to see, guided tours of some of the planes for just £3 per person. Great tearoom overlooking the outside planes, finish your visit off with a drink & snack! Hanbazlea222024-03-13 A must visit. Lovely place to visit. Volunteers are so helpful and friendly with so much information and stories to tell. Fantastic place to visit all thing aviation and the local area now and back in the day. Would recommend a visit 🙂🙂Showing only 4-5 star reviews
