Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for this tour? Can kids join?

A: There's no strict age limit for the guided tour, and kids are definitely welcome! Just keep in mind that the tour lasts about 2.5 hours, so younger kids might need some encouragement to stay engaged. It could be a great educational experience for them, especially if they're into space and aviation!

Q: What happens if it rains on the day of the tour? Will it be canceled?

A: The tour happens rain or shine since the museum is indoors! So no worries about the weather affecting your plans. Just dress comfortably for walking around and checking out all the exhibits.

Q: Is parking easy to find near the museum? Any tips?

A: Parking can be a bit tricky around the Air & Space Museum, especially on weekends. There are some paid lots nearby, but they fill up fast. I recommend arriving early or using a rideshare service if you can. Also, consider public transport; the metro stops are close by!

Thinking of gifting the Air & Space Museum tour, any thoughts?

I'm considering buying the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum guided tour for my husband’s birthday. He’s a huge space enthusiast and I think he'd love seeing things like the Apollo 11 capsule and Alan Shepard's space suit up close. Has anyone done this tour? Is it worth it? Any tips for making the day extra special?

Anyone want to share a favorite moment from the tour?

I just got back from the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum tour and wow, it exceeded my expectations! The highlight for me was definitely standing in front of the Spirit of St. Louis. I mean, how often can you see that up close? Anyone else have a favorite part?
