Day 1. Friday We begin our journey with a visit to the RAF Museum London, the UK’s only national museum dedicated to telling the story of the Royal Air Force and its people. Through powerful stories, rare objects, immersive films, and interactive displays, you’ll discover how the RAF has shaped the world during its first 100 years. The museum highlights the extraordinary individuals, cutting-edge technologies, and global partnerships that have defined its missions and achievements across a century of service. We depart later this afternoon for the journey to Reading and the Hilton Reading. This evening enjoy a three-course evening meal.
Day 2. Saturday Following an early breakfast, we head to the Royal International Air Tattoo, with entrance included. RAF Fairford will be buzzing with thousands of excited visitors, as the skies above the Cotswolds come alive with the thrilling sights and sounds of hundreds of aircraft - old and new, from every corner of the world - gathered for this unique, adrenaline-fuelled event. During the spectacular flying displays, you’ll witness everything from roaring fast jets and giant transporters to beautifully restored historic aircraft. There’s also the chance to meet the crews, get up close to the aircraft, and enjoy a full day of world-class aviation entertainment.
Day 3. Sunday Following breakfast, we begin our journey home via the Imperial War Museum Duxford. From the pioneering days of early flight to the dramatic events of the Second World War and the technological leaps of the Cold War, IWM Duxford has played a key role in some of the most defining moments of the 20th century. Inside every hangar and exhibition, you’ll find iconic aircraft, remarkable objects from the museum’s vast collection, and moving personal stories that reveal how lives across the world have been shaped by conflict through bravery, sacrifice, and innovation. We depart later this afternoon to make our journey home.
