- Per HTungelsta, Sweden124 contributionsA must visitThe Royal Air Force Museum London is a museum dedicated to the history of aviation and the Royal Air Force. It is located in London, England and is made up of five main exhibition halls, showcasing a variety of aircraft, artifacts, and interactive exhibits. The museum also offers educational programs and events for visitors of all ages. The museum is free to enter and open seven days a week.Visited January 2023Written January 19, 2023
- Frank vRotterdam, The Netherlands5 contributionsFantastic experience.To the RAF team, We had a wonderful experience visiting the museum this week. The welcome by Flossy was brilliant, followed by a lovely reception by Therese who gave us a map of the museum. The hole site is a great experience. We met another staff member Mira who gave us a lot of information. All and all a visit to remember. We are coming back. Kind regards, Frank and Frans (2 Dutch guys)Visited January 2023Written January 29, 2023
- AndyThame, United Kingdom2 contributionsVery well presented museum.6 hours spent looking around with family including kids. Plenty of fascinating exhibits to see. We also took the Battle of Britain ‘Fighter 4’ behind the barrier tour, which was excellent. Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide who brought the fighters to life for us. A lot of effort has clearly been put into the curation of the museum as it’s far more than just a few hangers full of aircraft. I have a half decent knowledge of the RAF and it’s history and I learned a lot more from the visit. Highly recommended.Visited January 2023Traveled with familyWritten January 30, 2023
- Stephanie H27 contributionsA plane museum,Excellent display of planes . The RAF flies its planes, so fair enough. It gives a display of the multiple roles of humans in the RAF but says very little about what they do, concentrating on the equipment, the bombs and ejector seats, and a few displays of their designers. The RAF is more than their planes and bombs, they are fed, they work radar, are air traffic controllers, and those displays , those roles, are not explained beyond briefly. It really is a very good display of planes and kit, the kids were having a whale of a time.Visited February 2023Written February 17, 2023
- nemesisofpopLondon, United Kingdom986 contributionsA great day for military history or aircraft loversIf you have even the slightest interest in military history and / or aircraft you will love this place. It is absolutely worth a visit and it has reasonable facilities for small children as well at 7 plus ones. There is a mind boggling array of superbly conserved war planes set out in multiple hangers divided by time. Even if you read virtually none of the written information you are going to need three hours to run your eyes over all the planes! That side of things is great. The food is only ok. It is quite expensive and there is a lot of wait time. Cookies and cakes are good and available from more than one out let.Visited February 2023Traveled with familyWritten February 19, 2023
- Tommy186338Welwyn Garden City, United Kingdom94 contributionsOKAn interesting place and somewhere I’ve been in the past and had great days out. Unfortunately it’s in need of some love - lots of the interactive exhibits were out of order and child drawing stations were in need of unused paper. Tired and in need of refresh but still fascinating and brilliant that it remains free. Very interesting aircraft and history. Great outdoor playground and good restaurant although the cafe in the first hanger was in need of a good clean.Visited March 2023Traveled with familyWritten March 26, 2023
- GARY RDunstable, United Kingdom2 contributionsPoor 4D experianceI love this place and Have done since a child. I know its a charity museum so spending £9 to park is a bargain in my eyes when bringing my children to see the amazing planes, vehicles and stories within these buildings but today I paid for the first time to do the 4D experience and it was such a disappointment. I would save your money and give it away to charity. I found the experience poor, not thrilling and very short for the money paid.Hi, thank you for your review. We have passed your comments onto the team responsible for the 4D experience at our London site. On the webpage that talks about our 4D experience we do state the length of time that each film is broadcast for and do give a description of each film that we show. The film that we are requested to show the most by our visitors is the Red Arrows 4D experience which puts you in the cockpit of a Red Arrows jet right in the middle of a display, so that you can hear and see all the action as it happens and we receive substantial positive feedback from people who view this screening. We are sorry to hear that on this occasion the 4D experience did not live up to your expectations, but it is incredibly popular with our visitors and as such very successful at raising much needed funds for the Museum, which is a registered charity.

- RB17 contributionsSadly has been undwrinvested in over the years and in need of fresh ideas for younger generations.The last time we went to Hendon was with our 3 older children when they were small (they were about 8,9 and 10 then... now 21,22 and 23). We decided to visit with our youngest some who is now 8 as the older kids had really enjoyed it. The museum is still a wonderful place to if you have fans of planes but everything has been majorly scaled back elsewhere. When we wentbefore there were activity sessions building model planes, competitines flying paper planes, cockpits to sit in and helmets to try on, and I appreciate covid may have changed alot but apart from an early interactive section in hangar 1, there is nothing else younger ones can get involved in. The rest is much more of a "look don't touch" feel to it and for younger kids they will get bored if they don't have particular love of planes. The opportunity to sit in a spitfire is a good one but at over £20 per person to sit in it for a few minutes its out of reach for most families. We could never have paid £60 for 3 kids to sit in a cockpit. Therr are 1 or 2 planes to have a look inside which older children ot those with a specific interest would appreciate. There is a play park for smaller kids to play on but it looked tired and in need of a revamp. It's sad but feels like the museum hasn't been invested in over the years. A nice way to spend a few hours if you have fans of planes but not likely to inspire an interest in them as it did with my other children.Hi, thank you for your comment and review, if we may we would like to answer some of the points that you made. Currently our London site is undergoing a major refurbishment after the very successful build of First World War in the Air, The RAF in An Age of Uncertainty: 1980 - Today and the creation of RAF Stories, The First 100 Years 1918 - 2018 during the period 2014 - 2018. We recognise that it is important that we continue to keep our offer and exhibitions as fresh as possible and are therefore running a programme of continuous improvement based on research of what our various audiences tell us they want. We are currently, in the process of refurbing Hangars 3,4,5 and will be shortly launching two brand new permanent exhibitions 'Strike Hard, Strike Sure: The Story of Bomber Command 1939 - 1945' and the RAF during the Inter War Years, this does mean at this moment in time there are parts of our London site which may look underinvested in at the moment, but this is because we are currently in the process of installing these exhibitions. We spent January refurbishing our outdoor playground, so are a little bit surprised by the comment that it needs a revamp and that it looks tired. In terms of interactives for younger children to use these are dotted around all of our Hangars, rather than being located in a single area as they were previously. We have had to change some of our offer due to Covid, which is still unfortunately with us, but this no longer prevents us from showing our 4D films, running our simulators or offering children with the help of our amazing volunteers the opportunity try on uniforms and helmets as you describe. We are also every conscious of how tight budgets are for families at the moment so we have created a full programme of events at pocket-money prices that younger visitors are able to enjoy, plus free family festivals that will run during Spring and the Summer. We would recommend that families visit the events section of our website to see what is running. Once again thank you for taking the opportunity to visit us and we hope that should you visit again over the summer months, you will notice the improvements that we have made.

- The B1 contributionUsed to be better and lacking in knowledge in the cafe.A very good museum, sadly it used to be excellent but a change of focus has seen many of the aircraft exhibits replaced with screens and some of the themed set pieces diluted. Cafe appeared ill equipped to cater for gluten free with cross contamination of serving implements and no idea as to what gluten actually was. A message to them via Messenger went unanswered.Visited March 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten April 12, 2023
- CharlottexxLondon, United Kingdom11 contributionsWow the exhibits in this museum kept both the adults and children busy for hours!Great museum, a lot bigger than we expected especially as it was free to enter! We did pre book the children’s pilot training which was ok but not fantastic. We also booked the 4D cinema and the flight simulator which were fantastic, would recommend these both. The Hendon restaurant was averagely priced and the food was just what we had expected. The children’s play area was really cool, they spent along time playing and didn’t want to leave. overall a great museum to visit with or with young children 😁 They also have a quiet room with a few bean bags for if it gets too much for some children which I thought was absolutely brilliant! 🌈Visited April 2023Traveled with familyWritten April 15, 2023

This is a great place to visit for the plane enthusiast and is in general a good place for children.
When we visited a number of the interactive things for children were not working and young children (under five) will not want to spend that long here. Young teenagers keen on plane, machines, misiles etc will love it, as will adults who like any of these things.
It was at times difficult to work out which description was for which item/exhibit.
The museum is free, they do ask for donations but it is up to you.
DO remember to Pay for your Parking. We almost left without paying thinking that there would be a machine at the exit. NO, it is in the corner of the car park and not near the enterance or the exit for the car park. Parking charges are reasonable but a £60 fine would be a costly but an easy mistake.

We booked online this morning and were there by 12:30pm. We paid the £4.50 fee for the parking online too which was easy and painless.
My partner visited the museum about 18months a go and raved about it so it was an easy decision for us all to visit while we were in the area.
I was thoroughly impressed with our whole visit. The exhibits and displays were excellent, with just the right amount of information (I’m not the one into aviation). There was still a good amount of interactive displays even with the current climate. I was really pleased to see how regularly things were being wiped down and cleaned. The one way system was clear and I thought the number of volunteers and staff around all of the hangers and buildings was excellent.
The restaurant had a good choice of take out foods and the children’s play park was adorable with all the downsized versions of buildings and planes etc. The gift shop was really lovely too with so many great choices. A great day out from start to finish.... and FREE it’s just brilliant!

This museum is amazing. Lets start from basics. You can book online, and its free! You do have to pay for parking which you can do beforehand. Theres lots of extras like Red Arrows experience you can also buy beforehand. On arrival you are met by friendly staff who direct you where to go. Once inside there is alot to see, many exhibits in a few hangars and very informative. There is a large gift shop on site. Id recommend taking your own food and drink as the cafe was very expensive and the service was slow. There are plenty of benches outside to sit. Id like to say a big thank you to staff as I wanted to do the Spitfire experience, where you get a private guided tour of a Spitfire and get to sit in it. On the day I visited they werent doing tours, but the staff put one on just for me. A lifelong ambition fulfilled so thanks. Well worth the visit!

My wife and I booked (FREE) advance tickets to visit the RAF Museum in Hendon on 31 May 2021. Parking is chargeable at £5 for up to 3 hours, and £7 for more than 3 hours. No need to book this in advance - just swipe a credit card on a machine before you depart (it was easy, and hassle free).
If you love aircraft, this is a WONDERFUL museum, with six halls filled with aircraft old and new. You'll see pretty much EVERYTHING you hoped to see from the mighty Avro Vulcan and Short Sunderland to the smaller Spitfire and (Red Arrows) Gnat. There are great presentations of historical events such as The Dambusters raid on the Ruhr dams.
We followed the exhibition halls numerically, starting at "1", continuing to 2, then the combined 3/4/5 and finishing in the new/modern hall 6 which contains the Harrier, Jaguar and Eurofighter Typhoon.
Go early, as with fewer crowds, you can get better photographs of the exhibits.

Still a good military museum to visit, with an unparalled collection of rare aircraft and artifacts and it's free - But a donation of £5 per person is highly recommended during these tough times.
The Battle of Britain was the RAF's 'Finest Hour' but it is not as well represented here as it should be in this 80th anniversary year. But alas, definitely a diluted and more confusing experience than it used to be !
Eliminating the old but evocative, dedicated Battle of Britain Hangar and just merging the aircraft with all the others in the main hangar space, in an uninspiring visual setting with proper use of multi-sensory technology, no clear start or end to the exhibition has been very poorly thought through. What a shame, an opportunity to amaze and inspire has not been fully achieved.

This is a truly great museum with one of the world’s best military aircraft collections spanning WW1, WW2, the Cold War up until day. It is very family friendly with activities for all ages. It is free (paid for parking) but there are pay for special activities such as sitting in the cockpit of a real Spitfire and a VR experience of the dam buster raid. Unmissable.

The "virtual" flight in a Typhoon fighter was amazing! But the whole museum is frankly, amazing.
There is so much to look at, so many exhibits and so much information to digest, that I recommend you plan for more than one visit. We took our 9 year-old grandsons for a birthday 'treat' and they loved it. They were just the right age to be entertained by what was on show, but also be wanting to ask lots of questions.
There are a great many interactive exhibits which they thoroughly enjoyed, and any parents or grandparents with similar type of intended visits, should make sure you give yourselves plenty of time.
The staff are amazing! Very friendly, very knowledgeable and very helpful. This greatly enhances ones experience on the day.
The Museum does not charge for entry, only for the 'additional experiences'. If you do visit, please give a 'fair' donation based on the numbers in your group. This will ensure that the Museum continues to both exist and thrive.

Been a longtime since we visited the museum and were so impressed with the new format. At a time of covid the museum has done so much to make the experience safe and enjoyable, even opening a new exhibition of art from the Second World War-in air and fire-which was excellent.
Excellent and I hope the public rushes to support these institutions doing such a fantastic job.

For a free facility (except parking which is not) this is a great destination. With loads of aircraft and displays and playground and open spaces it's ideal for a day out.
However eat elsewhere. The only offering right now is Claudes Cafe. The choice is minute , the prices are eye wateringly expensive and the actual food is mediocre.
This needs some serious attention because it is a huge negative

The last Blackburn Beverley is available following the closure of Fort Paull. Given the uniqueness of this aircraft, wouldn't it be incumbent on the RAF Museum to procure, preserve and display it for future generations?

Good Afternoon, the Museum is not in the Congestion Charge Zone. The best junction to come off the M1 is Junction 4. If you are using SAT Nav to reach the Museum please use the postcode NW9 5QW, which is for the small industrial estate next to us. Our official postcode is incorrectly indexed on a couple of systems.

How do u get there from London city are there trains going.
RAFMuseum

Good Morning,
The Museum is situated at Colindale Underground on the Edgware branch of the Northern Line. Please alight at Colindale, not Hendon Central. Colindale is in Zone 4.
If you are not familiar with the London Underground, you can pick up a map free of charge from any Underground station or download one here. For useful ticketing information and service updates, visit the Transport for London website.
To travel to the Museum, get on the Northern Line (the black line on the maps) travelling North. The Northern Line runs through King's Cross Station so this can be a useful place to pick it up.
The two branches of the Northern Line merge at Camden Town. You need to be on a train travelling to EDGWARE (known as the Edgware Branch). If you are on the other line (the High Barnet Branch), then change at Camden Town onto an Edgware train. Trains heading to Mill Hill East are on the High Barnet Branch. All the electronic displays will show which destination the train is heading for: Edgware, High Barnet or Mill Hill East.
Stay on the Northern Line and alight at Colindale station. Do not alight at Hendon Central - this is the station before Colindale. The journey should take around half an hour from King's Cross. There is only one exit from Colindale station. Turn left out of the station and walk straight along the road for about 10 minutes.
If travelling by overground Mill Hill Broadway is the nearest rail station and is a 20 minute walk away. The station is on the Luton/King's Cross/Thameslink line.
Trains are operated by:
• Thameslink
• Thameslink operates trains between London, Brighton, Bedford, Peterborough, Cambridge and King's Lynn.
Please note: you are able to take the 303 bus from Mill Hill Broadway to the Museum from Boarding Stop B. The approximate journey time for this travel is 7 minutes. Please ensure that you are taking the 303 bus to Kingsbury Circle.
Kind regards, RAFM.

Tbh the nearest airport is Luton and is a 30min drive straight down the M1, leave at the Edgware junction and travel down the A41 (Museum is signposted) In term of accommodation not many hotels nearby but quite a few in Watford or Borehamwood which is about 15-20mins away.
Personally I would say that IMW Duxford is a much better Aircraft Museum in terms of sheer number of exhibits and the fact that is an active airfield with classic aircraft flying most days.. fly into Stanstead and stay at a number of local hotels nearb...
