Experience Aviation History at the Pima Air & Space Museum

As one of the largest aviation museums in the world, the Pima Air & Space Museum is home to more than 300 historic aircraft and spacecraft on its 80-acre site in Tucson, AZ. For 40 years, the museum has invited visitors to explore the history of air and space flight across five museum hangars filled with interesting exhibits, memorabilia, and aviation artifacts.

Take a guided walking tour of the museum for insider insights or ride the tram to visit the collection of full-size aircraft, including a Wright Flyer and a 787 Dreamliner. The Pima Air & Space Museum is also home to the "Aircraft Boneyard," a U.S. military and government aircraft storage facility. Access this popular attraction in Tucson easily from the Arizona Inn, located just 20 minutes from the Pima Air & Space Museum.
