We had a really enjoyable morning visiting this really well presented and interesting museum. Two Concordes, an original A300, an A380 and a Caravelle amongst the exhibits, what’s not to love? Even my partner enjoyed it and she hates flying! We were staying in our motorhome at the aire so getting here was simple, from Toulouse it’s pretty straightforward - the metro, a tram and a ten minute walk. Would definitely recommend.

The museum is good , well laid out and ample opportunities to view exhibits . Good mechanism to minimise the number of people onboard. Fascinating and good to see prototype and production model of Concorde. Getting there is tricky , pretty sure Google Maps sent us the long way.

If you love airplanes... is the best place in Europe by far. At same place you can visit two AF Concorde's. I don't know why 209 one has the stairs but is not possible to visit it inside.

A fantastic trip. Both educational and immersive, a lot of activities to see and do. Friendly staff and great gift shop. Would highly recommend to anyone in or near Toulouse. Very reasonably priced as well.

Two important examples of parts that can be effective for common people to realize the complexity of aircraft hardware technologies: engine and landing gear.

Unfortunately never made it out to aeroscopia, staff at our hotel mistook it for Aerospace so ended up there. Better directions on ticket on how to get there from city centre would have been really helpful, which bus/train etc

Being in the Concord. Seeing the massive banks of computers and technology that went into flying her.

I have had Aeroscopia on my bucket list since its opening in 2015 and had the opportunity to visit it during a business trip to Toulouse. I arrived at 16:00 and the museum closed at 18:00, so I rushed it through faster than I expected. I really liked the historical significance of the aircraft in the museum. To have both the first A320, A340-660, the second A380, a Caravelle and TWO Concordes at one single museum is amazing. I could have stayed for twice as long. I can only recommend the museum.

Great place for young and old to see the history of planes and how they have developed over the years. We normally go to the Royal Air Force museum in Hendon, London and the grandchildren love it. This one in Toulouse is excellent and it was well worth seeing the Concorde and the transporter planes. There were various airbuses as well which Mede the whole visit very informative and interesting. Would visit this place again if in Toulouse again.

I was excited about seeing the historical aircrafts. They were well worthwhile. Unfortunately, the tours seen were in French solely so it was a self guided tour.

I have visited approximately 35 aviation museums, but this one has been the best I've seen in Europe so far. A380, 2x Concord, etc. I spent 5 hours here, including the Visit Airbus tour, and it's definitely the best museum I've ever seen. The staff was very nice. I will surely return here again someday.

Brilliant museum. And great value for money. Maybe put more signs to show people that use the tram to get to the museum

I had booked a few nights stay in Toulouse as part of a week's holiday in France so I could visit the Airbus factory. Unfortunately due to Manatour being misleading about the actual dates these ran, I never got an opportunity to see this, and whilst I was stuck there anyway I decided to visit Aeroscopia. It was raining that morning, so I decided to visit in the afternoon when it would be drier. Whilst dissapointed in no Airbus tour, I was hoping this wold salvage part of my holiday. I got there to see a concorde tour on the events screen for an extra 3 and a half euros. Only one problem, the tour started 3 and a half hours ago! No other tours ran. Why put it on when it was throwing it down in the morning with little visitors? No way to plan ahead for these tours either (nothing online about it in terms of daily plans for tour times). I never got to see inside the Air France concorde parked up. Let down! The rest of it is aircraft that you can walk around but all the cool interior and cockpit areas are 'window sealed off' from visitors. No chance to pretend your a concorde pilot or passenger. No interaction. No fun at all. The only part worth seeing is the A380 with its unique pod that leads inside into the interior away from the rest of the exhibits. This was cool, although again most of te areas cordened off by large screens so only the bar area could be 'felt' and experienced. Just like the Airbus tour that never happened, I was further let down by this because I would have loved to see inside Concorde but was never given a proper opportunity.

Unfortunatly we missed Airbus as didnt realise foreighners needed 3 days advance security check for tour. However Aeroscopie was absolutly great, we spent almost 3 hours there and loved it,and also visited the older planes run by volunteers

Everything you were interested in, as long as it is French. Obviously the super Guppy and Concorde steal the show. We spent 4 hours and stopped due to information overload

We entered the Musee prior to the the Airbus factory tour, and we were so glad we did this. After purchasing a discount ticket (thanks to the factory tour entry) we entered the museum. There is a history of the conception of flight, to the first flight. Model aircraft and pictures take you step by stop of the evolution of the aircraft. After entry you immediately see the sheer enormity of the “Guppy” bulk carrier. There are other real test bed aircraft to walk through and see the “unveiled” insides of the aircraft, including a A380, A300, Concord and see many other smaller and military aircraft. There are plastic models of various Airbus and ATR aircraft along with the technical information on each airframe. Stepping outside the main museum hanger, its very disappointing that some aircraft are not open and cannot be walked through. There is no cafe on the premises, but there are 3 vending machines that contain coffee, snacks, sandwiches and drinks. This museum is great and well put together, but the competitor’ museum in Seattle is much better. Save your money and only visit the “Musée Aeroscopia” and give the factory tour a miss, the factory tour is very very disappointing.

Not a Museum, but a Mix of Airframes Previously used by Airbus' Marketing Department There is no storyline of the planes' history. Very little explanation of what one was seeing. If you already know much about these airplanes, it may be of interest to you to finally see them. Otherwise, it can come across as boring after the first five minutes. If you don't drive or take a taxi, access is poor and the long walk from the nearest public transportation stop can be windy and wet. On the whole, if you are there to see some specific airframes, like I was for the Concorde, it may make sense. Otherwise, I'd recommend to skip.

Interesting museum covering the history of flight with an obvious lean towards the French participation. Lots of planes to look at, with English translations on everything. Displays include two concordes, a number of airbus offerings (an 380, 330, plus others), a super guppy transport plane, a few military and historic planes. Easy to spend a good day there to view everything, or a few hours to browse. You can also get on a tour of the Airbus factory, but for that you need to book online, and if not an EU citizen, you have to allow at least 3 days for security checks to be carried out. Getting there by public transport isn't the easiest - a trip on the T1 tram and then a long walk, including a bridge over the motorway. Apparently there are buses but not off season when we went

This museum near the Airbus factory has a nice collection of airplanes, from historic small aircraft to the giant A380. The displays are very informative and several larger aircraft are open for touring. Our group had a guided tour with excellent information from the guides.
