Pima Air & Space Museum, Tucson

Wow. One of the best museums I've ever been to, if not the best. We were in the Tucson area trying to figure out what to do and the reviews here were so positive it was an easy decision. When you're driving up, you see all the planes lined up outside and it makes you so excited to go in. All the volunteers are extremely friendly and eager to share their knowledge. Unfortunately we didn't have as much time as we'd like but I plan to go back and spend a few hours. You just get lost in the history and it's certainly not every day you get to be up close and personal with Air Force One or an SR-71 Blackbird.

exceeded all expectations. Great even for those of us who are not airplane enthusiasts. All employees and volunteers were very knowledgeable and courteous. We got there at 1:30 thinking 3 hours would be more than enough, we could have spent another 2 hours. Closes at 4:30. DO THE TRAIN RIDE!!

Absolutely astonishing museum. So many unique aircraft. Volunteers are very friendly and love to teach about specific details and special histories of each aircraft. Restoration center was super cool. I like that visitors can look in and see some of the historic planes being preserved.

Came from Canada and was able to fit in a day at the museum on my travels. Absolutely fantastic museum for aviation lovers - the best I've ever been to. Can't believe the value for your money, especially when you do the boneyard tour too (book that 10++ days in advance though!). I suggest pacing yourself and setting aside a good two days to really take this all in, we were VERY rushed with only one day to try and see it all and still have time to read the signage, etc. Expected a little more from the gift shop, but won't hold that against them!

This has got to be the gem of the southwest for anyone with or without a passion for flying great exhibits of some of the most iconic aircraft in the world from the Wright bros. To the space shuttle it's all here with 80 acres of exhibits you're bound to find something to peak your interest if I could give it 10 stars I would 5 for the museum and 5 for the absolutely amazing staff and volunteers. Thank you for an AMAZING time
