We recently visited MOTAT with my two boys 7 & 8, and it was an amazing experience, especially for families with neurodiverse children like mine. My youngest is autistic, and I was initially nervous about the weekend crowd. However, the staff were incredibly supportive, providing noise earmuffs to help manage the noise levels. There were so many exciting things for the kids to see, touch, and play with, and the historical exhibits were fascinating. The facilities were top-notch, with toilets, eating areas, and seating available at every corner. Do wear comfortable footwear as there's a bit of walking involved to see everything. Definitely a 10/10 attraction – we’ll be back for more fun!
A glorious late May Sunday saw us at MOTAT.nnPlenty of action for the kids and as usual the Tram ride to the Aviation Hall provides some further excitement.nnLack of the cafe was annoying, but apparently temporary. There were however some pop up stalls with coffee and snacks, but if you are after something more substantive - currently no good.nnA fine day out with a steam train added in too.
Great place for families. Lots of cheap paid parking and there is a free tram that connects both sites. I love the aviation hall site, but my only critique is they need more attractions for the little ones. An idea would be to have an actual airplane that people can tour inside, that would be really cool!
I took my young lad to MOTAT. Not our first time and certainly won’t be our last! We love this place, a tremendous amount of things to look and touch. The staff were very friendly and it was tidy. A great solo artist was playing on our most recent visit which added to the wonderful atmosphere. Parking easy to find. A must visit attraction.
My family and friends had a delightful first-time visit to MOTAT in Auckland during the Christmas lighting event. The enchanting display of lights created a truly festive atmosphere, perfect for the holiday season. Our group, including my 3-year-old and friends' kids, had a fantastic time exploring the beautifully illuminated surroundings.The highlight of our visit was capturing precious moments with Santa, creating lasting memories for the little ones. The Christmas lighting, open exclusively on Fridays to Sundays from 8 pm to 11 pm, added a magical touch to the entire experience.The presence of food trucks offering a variety of treats, including fries, donuts, ice cream, pies, and more, added to the festive vibe. It provided a convenient and enjoyable option for satisfying our cravings during the visit.The affordability of the tickets was a pleasant surprise, with adults priced at $5, kids above 5 years at $2, and children below 5 enjoying free admission. This made it an accessible and family-friendly outing.Overall, MOTAT exceeded our expectations, delivering a joyful and memorable experience for both kids and adults. We're already looking forward to revisiting next year and extending our heartfelt cheers to MOTAT for creating such a wonderful Christmas celebration.
