Had a very interested afternoon looking around this site. Did a golf buggy tour and our driver/guide was brilliant. Full of interesting facts and made sure we saw as much as possible in the limited time we had available. Would highly recommend.

We visited for personal reasons but went on to visit the other areas of the NMA and had a very interesting day with the advice and knowledge of the brilliant staff.

As always a marvelous visit, company and purpose being more important than weather situation. Whenever you go it's always a different experience. Whether it's an event day like RTTW or Armed Forces Day, or a quiet more personal day. Staff and volunteers are always helpful. I took only a short video of the Lancaster on the flypast on this trip. Sometimes you take lots and others you don't. Always seems to be something new there each visit.

Restrooms: In the main building they are always clean in my experience, at large event days they will also have external portable toilets and as can be expected with increased activity there will be increased queues.

Dog-friendliness: Not a problem with taking your dog there providing you follow the restrictions i.e. dog on lead and clear up any mess. Would suggest only well behaved dogs.

A Sombre time for sure, but a well-organized event, all the same, my girlfriend and I attended Ride to the Wall this weekend (01/10/2022) for the first time, it won't be the last for sure.

Everybody needs to visit. It's very emotional and a lovely place to walk round. It's much bigger than you think is going to be and there are over 400 memorials.

Fantastic day out at the memorial celebration...Lancaster bomber flew over and the military wives choir were good...Nice sunny day helped....the area is vast and plenty of memorial statues to see.

Restaurant and coffee shops are good aswell as the stall holders set up for the event.

Free admission...only pay for parking..thoroughly good day out to honour the lives lost.

Deeply moving, if you're going, plan for the first Saturday in October. This year saw over 8000 bikers in a growing movement called RTTW.

A place of emotion, free space and memories.
RTTW is the time to see the NMA, in full capacity but a solo tour, mid week on a quiet day is special, to see all the dedications laid.

Well worth a visit. £6 car parking for the day, free entry and you should allow a whole day to get round all the memorials.

Although I went as part of an event it was still non the less an amazing place. It really is a great place for reflection. You don't need to have served in the armed forces to appreciate the monuments. There is a cafe and guided tours

Amazing experience, found a couple of old friends on the wall (sad but happy) the place is huge and a good day out.

Playground: There are a couple of play areas and the kids seemed to enjoy it. A good idea to stop them getting bored
