Incredible place! Honestly the best aviation museum I have ever been to and one of the best museums I have been to overall. Lots to see, lots to interact with, actually getting into some of the planes, many elevated platforms and floors to see these huge aircraft from different angles. The airfield is active with all sorts taking off and landing throughout the day. Accessibility for wheelchair users is great too.

What a fantastic place for lovers of old planes! If you are planning on going, be sure to wear your walking shoes because this place is huge. You walk through hangars filled with real planes - many that still fly and there are lots of informative exhibits. The playground for the kids is great as well. If you are visiting, we found it best to take a train to Cambridge and then taxi down to Duxford. Be sure to arrange a pickup for your return as there weren't taxis at Duxford.

Fantastic day, need more than one day to see everything. We mainly done hanger 1, the US area and the outside planes. These were knowledgeable and informative. We became members so we can come back a few more times. 100% recommended. All the staff we spoke to were lovely.

Fantastic place to visit, plenty to see and discover. Some amazing exhibits, the American Museum was particularly impressive. If you’re lucky then you might get to see something old get airborne. I was fortunate to visit the day after a big Airshow so there were a few visiting aircraft still there. £30 sounds a lot but you can easily spend a whole day here so really it’s great value for money. Food not cheap but it never is at places like this, though plenty of outdoors seating if you bring your own.

A really interesting museum and airfield. I went on a day off from work and it’s got a great detailed insight to the history of the airfield, WW2, modern and older aircraft. Clearly a good day out for kids too, with some decent hands on stuff, plenty of aircraft taking off and a great play area. Warning - shop and cafes/restaurants are very expensive.
