Plan your visit around the guided tours. I joined one by chance and it made the experience way more enriching than just wandering around alone.

Make sure to wear comfy shoes! There's a lot of walking involved, and some exhibits can be quite far from each other... Trust me, your feet will thank you at the end of the day!

Bring some water with you, especially if you're visiting in the summer months. The heat can get intense, and staying hydrated is key!

I suggest visiting in the morning around 9 AM. It's much less crowded then and you'll get a peaceful experience while exploring the submarine.

My advice is to skip the cafeteria food. It's kinda pricey and not that great. There are awesome local eateries just around the corner to grab a bite!

Consider hiring an audio guide. I thought I could skip it, but once I started exploring, I wished I had all that historical context.

I recommend starting with the indoor section first; it gets busier later in the day. The outdoor aircraft are cool but the indoor stuff is a must-see, especially the simulators!

I suggest car pooling if you're coming with friends, parking can be tricky. There are limited spots and it gets full really quickly on weekends!

I recommend spending time at the toy train exhibit... It's such a fun spot, and I almost missed it thinking it was for kids only!

I think bringing your own snacks can save you some money. The food options aren’t the cheapest, and packing a few treats can keep you energized while you explore!
