Ronald Reagan Presidential Library

I lived in Los Angeles for 12 years before moving to San Diego 3 years ago, but it was the first time I visited this beautiful museum. Most of people working here are very hospitable. It's a very beautiful place to visit. Especially, it's the only library that displays the real Air Force One and Marine One.

I've been here multiple times with family and friends and each visit has been fascinating. This library is beautiful, inside and out. Even the drive up the hill is nice. Once you reach the main library entrance, there is staff at every corner to greet, guide, answer questions and their knowledge of museum is extraordinary. Sometimes staff share inside stories about particular events/displays that the public wouldn't had known about, which makes it all the more interesting. You can walk this library at your own pace and really enjoy the experience and history of it all. They also offer audio headphones at an additional price, which adds to the experience of viewing each section of the library. There is a lot to see and learn; from Ronald Reagans career in office to experiencing a walk inside Air Force One. Expect to spend about 3 hours or more touring and exploring the grounds. There is a photo op waiting at every corner too- especially outside on the grounds. The hillside views are simply stunning! The library has a food court inside along with tables. You also have the option to sit outside, the panoramic view is an added bonus. When planning a trip, I recommend purchasing tickets (audio headphones are optional) online. A Date/Time is required at time of purchase. If you're doing an exhibit, I definitely recommend selecting a time in the early morning/afternoon, Weekends can get pretty crowded. Stopping by the store is also a must before you leave, you'll pass this area at the end of your tour. I would also suggest a light sweater/jacket if you're there till closing, It gets chilly on the hill. This library is family friendly, the energy here is peaceful and comfortable. It's over an hour drive for me but so worth. And, Parking is always free! With all the above being said, Have a great time!

This is my second time here. The first time I went with a local elementary school. This time my wife and I got to see the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Ten Commandments on a scroll at The Ronald Regan Library. Such a delightful place with history for days and always changing artifacts of all the gift given to him while he was a President. Air Force One that flew 7 presidents and the first Stealth fight that flew in 1984 plus a F-14 and a Abrams tank plus many other sights to see. Like his suit that got a hole shot in it.

Recently I had the profound privilege to visit in my opinion the world class Ronald Reagan Presidential Library And Museum in Simi Valley California . It is the most visited presidential libary in the United States and largest. It should be mandatory that every American should visit . From the drive up the winding, picturesque mountains, overlooking Simi Valley, there's tributes to every former president. What an awesome inspiring site!!!!! The journey starts before Ronald Reagan birth though his end . Words can't not adequately express my experience on this day . I hope my pictures will inspire many to visit !!!

Great experience, we've never been to a presidential library. It has an amazing location with a view of the local mountains. The Reagan exhibit is very detailed throughout his entire life and political career. You travel chronologically through the museum. There was a powerful traveling exhibit on the Holocaust, amazing! Friendly and helpful staff!

The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library is a fantastic place for Cold War enthusiasts, history lovers, supports of the amazing president, and aviation geeks. I enjoyed the museum very much. The staff were perfecional, helpful and delightful. The museum food wasn't very healthy but delicious and cheap for a museum. I will definitely be returning the next time I am in L.A.

Love this place. Visited for the Dead Sea Scrolls event. Spent over 3 hours exploring and educating myself on history and the greatness of a great president. The historic scrolls and the presentation are amazing.

I had an absolutely incredible experience! I was able to learn so much, and as a Canadian, I was really able to gain a deep appreciation for everything that I learned. I was able to visit during the time that the dead Sea scrolls were on exhibit and it was an absolutely fantastic experience in every way. For any of my fellow Canadians who are thinking about visiting, I would strongly recommend you do!!
