Let's Visit Airbus
Toulouse, its pink brick, its gastronomy… and its planes. World capital of aeronautics, it is the cradle of the industrial flagship Airbus, which it saw born more than fifty years ago.
Take a behind-the-scenes look at the world's leading aerospace company: the Airbus factories!
We invite you to visit these sites, which are home to almost 20,000 employees every day, via three different tours: the ‘AIRBUS A321’ tour, the ‘AIRBUS A350’ tour and the ‘AIRBUS KIDS’ tour, which allows you to discover the world of Airbus with your family!

Airbus A321 guided tour :
Take a behind-the-scenes look at the A321, the latest addition to the Airbus family, on an exceptional guided tour.
Set off for the Jean-Luc Lagardère Final Assembly Line (FAL), initially dedicated to the A380, right next to the aeroscopia museum, and immerse yourself in the world of aeronautical manufacturing as you explore the state-of-the-art facilities of France's leading aerospace manufacturer. Enjoy a unique panoramic view of the assembly line, where, at the heart of innovation and automation, you will have the opportunity to observe the processes involved in assembling the wings and fuselage, right through to the cabin fittings, all accompanied by detailed explanations from our expert guides.
Finally, back at the aeroscopia museum, climb aboard the latest-generation Airbus military transport aircraft: the A400M to discover the missions of this aircraft equipped with the latest technological innovations!
Airbus A350 guided tour :
The Airbus A350 is an ultra-modern airliner designed to offer superior comfort and exceptional fuel efficiency. Over the last few decades, it has become a preferred choice for airlines operating long-haul flights. Manatour invites you to visit the final assembly line, where the various sections of the A350 are brought together, prepared for the test phases and finally delivery:
-
Bus tour of the 700 hectares of Airbus facilities in Toulouse
-
Stopover at the A350 assembly line lookout point
-
Detailed presentation of the production process.
Airbus Kids guided tour for children:
Designed for families with children aged 6 to 12, the Airbus Kids tour introduces young visitors to the world of Airbus in general and the A350 in particular. It introduces them to the history and vocabulary of aviation! (tour in French and Spanish).
Combined tour - Airbus and aeroscopia :
There are two steps to booking a combined tour:
-
Book your Airbus visit online: We encourage visitors to visit the online ticketing service around two to three weeks before the date they wish to visit, to get a realistic idea of the slots available.
-
Once you have selected your visit, add the visit to the aeroscopia museum to your basket by clicking on “Exhibitions” and then on “aeroscopia visit”. The combined rate will be applied automatically.
Please note that in order to benefit from the combined offer, both visits must take place on the same day. If the Airbus visit slot is at a fixed time following your online reservation, the Museum visit is at free time.
Additional visits:
A panoramic coach tour can be offered to groups (upon reservation). A "green visit", a guided tour by bus, at the heart of the Airbus site in Toulouse, to discover the environmental commitment of the aircraft manufacturer, is also offered to groups.
