Things to do in Narita International Airport

The Open-Air Museum is a very interesting museum with a variety of artworks to appreciate. As it's open-air, it'll be best to bring an umbrella for both rain and sun. Definitely allocate as least 2-3 hours when you visit this. It's a great attraction for kids as well as adults.

Driver Joe arrived early and on time, and informed us of the travel time and distance. Although we didn't complete the full itinerary, it wasn't his fault; he even helped call the restaurant where we had a reservation to push back the booking time. We are very grateful.

Arigato to Mrs. IKUKO COOL , our guide, for having taken us to an unforgettable morning tour to NARITA. We learned a lot about Japan in a rather short visit and a condensed visit, which makes us wish to visit again for a longer stay. Thanks for the warm welcome extended by Ikuko and your team. The tour, the meeting arrangement and the departure at the end were so smooth, thank you for this as well. Our group included the grandparents, the daughter, and 3 grandchildren, all enjoyed so much this tour and thanks again to Ikouko for making it happen.

The museum is small and a bit dated, but nonetheless very informative. There are mock up demos and simulator sessions for an extra fee, although they were all in Japanese so I chose not to do them. There's a viewing deck upstairs where you can watch aircraft take off and land at Narita Airport. On the day I went, admission for school age kids (high school and below) was free and some universities, flight academies and tech schools were there for those who might be interested to sign up. For the low price of the ticket, it's a good side trip to kill time while waiting for your late afternoon or evening flight if you're interested in aviation or have some small children.
