Atlantic Air Adventures

  It's lovely to visit somewhere where the people give the tour and demonstrations have so much passion for the subject. Our visit to the Air Atlantic Ventures was brilliant.... read more The kids got to dress up as pilots and aircraft personnel and we had almost an hour in the simulators. We then had a tour of the museum with many actual plane cockpits and memorabilia. Then a tour of the planes outside. There were seven of us from 8 to adult and all had fun.

  Spent a very interesting couple of hours here on a wet morning. Our tour guide was informative and obviously interested in all things planes. In fact his enthusiasm rubbed off... read more on me. It had quite a good range of planes and other flight related items. A great place to go if you're any way interested in planes and great for a wet day.

  It's a great museum for all avation lovers at any age! The 737-800NG simulator is just like the real thing (except the hydraulic movement)! Great place to visit yourself or... read more with friend and family! Great fun!

  Went here last week with our four sons 8-17yrs on a family celebration. They all loved the activity, though the tutorial was a little technical for the younger 2,... read more it was necessary for them to realise that this was more than a sit in toy you would see in a shopping centre. They got great care and attention and our experience was made all the better from the wealth of knowledge from staff. They all enjoyed the experience and the museum, having left Shannon almost twenty years ago, it's nice to come back with my kids to share my memories of the planes growing up. Worth a visit.

  Super centre full of information and real jets on display. There is also a simulator you can have a go in, for all ages young and old. Would highly recommend... read more a visit if you have an interest in planes.

  It wa an over all good experience for me and my student I was with whom has autism but there one lady with glasses who works there was very abrupt... read more and rude to my young student. She wasn’t helpful and basically felt like we were unwelcome by her presence. Her sister showed us around the place and into some of the display planes was a great host and very friendly but her sister left a bad taste in my mouth unfort especially for kids with SEN

We were welcomed at the reception counter and made feel very welcome. Eddie the owner gave us a guided tour of the museum, he was very informative and interesting and you could listen to his stories for ages. He recalled his own career as a Senior Aviation Engineer in the RAF.
Our guys got the opportunity to put on real junior aviation suits and we had plenty of time for photos.
Great place for anyone with and interest in the Aviation industry.
Thanks for sharing with us.

  Visited on a Saturday morning with our three young boys whilst waiting for our flight home and what a fantastic little place. The people who work their are so passionate... read more about what they do was lovely to see. From the start they were great with the children letting them dress as pilots and our youngest a captain where they could then play in a plane. It is very small but we spent a few hours here and the children didn’t want to leave. We will be back when we return to Shannon.

  8 children (age range 8 - 12)plus 4 adults visited today and had a ball. Very educational in a fun and fascinating way. Kids hung on our wonderful guides every... read more word. So worth the 2 and a half hour round trip. I'm ex cabin crew and I learned a lot today. Many "so that's why they do that" moments. Loads of wonderful photo opportunities. Very generous and informative staff. Great day out that's suitable for all age groups / boys and girls. Kids loved wearing the jumpsuit and being able to see all the aircrafts outside. Flight simulator is incredible. Highlight was inflating the lifevest. We all jumped! Definitely worth a visit and would be great destination for school tours. Very reasonably priced.( plus local Supermacs do deal for groups visiting- €4 kids meal.) We finished the day off with trip to viewing gallery in Shannon Airport which is just down the road to see the real thing in action. Thanks again to the wonderful staff there today.
