For group bookings (10 or more persons) or to book a Museum tour guide, please contact the Group Visits Department. Group packages including Museum visit and lunch in our Wings Restaurant can be arranged upon request.
Please note, from 1 April 2010, a small car parking charge will be payable by visitors to the Royal Air Force Museum. The income generated will be used to assist in meeting the costs of maintaining the Museum's national collection and of operating its sites. Car Park fees are:
3 Hours - £2.50 per car
3-6 Hours - £3.50 per car
Blue Badge holders - charges apply as above
Mini Buses - charges apply as above
Coaches are free of charge
On 29 August the Museum will be hosting a Vintage Bus Rally. For this event the coach parking area will be required for the buses to use as a turning point. So unfortunately, on this day the Museum is unable to accept any group bookings where the arrival is by coach.
Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.
Our Society of Friends members offer free 30 minute guided tours of specific areas of the Museum at various times throughout the day during peak seasons (subject to availability).
Specialised tours can be arranged on request (maximum 12 people per guide). Minimum of 10 days notice is required, a charge of £25 per guide applies. Please note, this service cannot be guaranteed, as all our guides are volunteers. However, we endeavour to meet all requests for tour guides.
