Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Great place to visit

Really great place to visit. A lot of information to go through, but unfortunately all in French.
There was a wonderful member of staff who tried his best to explain everything to us in English (even if not very good English). We were very grateful to him and donated some money to the museum.
Museum is pretty easy to find, good parking.

Loved it. Worth the visit.

Brilliant place and still used to this day. Plenty of free parking. Lovely lady at the reception who kindly gave me a folder in English which explains a lot about the place which was fascinating.

First of all there is a short video in the preferred choice of language which for me was English and also had English subtitles which was a great help for someone who is hard of hearing.

Next wonder around the small museum which was very interesting especially the helicopter that was in parts to see how it works.

Next the warehouse with all sorts of helicopters and aeroplanes which was amazing as I was the only one there so had the whole place to myself taking my time.

Would definitely recommend stopping of at this place and having a wonder round. Especially for children who would love this place.

Thank you for a wonderful visit.

An interesting place to visit. Our guide was informative and at times too technical for me. My husband and I couldn't stand listening to him for two and half hours so we went alone exploring the wonderful machines including a real banana helicopter - impressive.

The most amazing place!

With a little planning, I was given permission to fly into Dax airport and had the supreme pleasure of being met by the colonel, curator of the museum and shown around the facility. For the rotary enthusiast, this is a must see, the collection is well displayed and explained, the tour is hugely enjoyable made better by the delightful staff that look after you throughout you time at the museum. I'm already looking forward to going back.
