From the moment you enter the Reagan Library, you’re not just reading about history — you’re stepping into it. The museum brings the life and legacy of America’s 40th President to life with vivid storytelling, immersive exhibits, and rare artifacts. Tour groups will trace Ronald Reagan’s incredible journey, from his humble beginnings in Dixon, Illinois, to his Hollywood stardom, to his two-term presidency during some of the most pivotal years of the 20th century. Groups will also explore a full scale White House replica of the White House Oval Office, decorated as it was during President Reagan’s time in office. You’ll witness firsthand how President Reagan’s leadership helped end the Cold War, revive the American spirit, and restore confidence in a nation that needed a strong voice of hope.
See Air Force One — Up Close and Personal
One of the most unforgettable highlights for visitors is the actual Air Force One aircraft that served President Reagan and six other U.S. presidents. Suspended in a dramatic glass pavilion with panoramic views of Southern California, this full-size Boeing 707 is the real deal — not a replica. Your group can walk through the presidential jet, and gain a whole new appreciation for the demands of presidential travel.
And that’s not all — the pavilion also includes a Marine One helicopter and a presidential motorcade. It’s an aviation enthusiast’s dream, and a moment of awe for every visitor.
Inspiration Around Every Corner
The Reagan Library is more than a museum — it’s an uplifting experience. Tour members often walk away with a renewed sense of patriotism and purpose. From Ronald Reagan’s powerful speeches to his unwavering belief in the American people, his optimism is contagious. The museum doesn’t just cover the President’s policies, but the values behind them — freedom, faith, courage, and determination.

The museum is always evolving, offering new and engaging temporary exhibits that appeal to a wide range of interests. Past exhibits have included exhibitions on the Vatican, the FBI, World War II, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and many others. These rotating displays keep every visit fresh — even for return guests.
Be sure to check the museum’s event calendar when planning your tour. Many groups plan their visit around lectures, patriotic celebrations, or holiday events like the annual “Christmas Around the World” tree exhibit, which is always a crowd favorite, as big commemorations for the Fourth of July and President’s Day.
A Picture-Perfect Setting
Let’s not forget the stunning backdrop. The Reagan Library sits on over 300 acres of California hills, offering spectacular photo opportunities that tour groups love. Whether you’re posing near the beautiful replica of the White House Rose Garden or capturing the view from the Air Force One Pavilion’s terrace, this is one of the most scenic presidential libraries in the country.
The grounds are beautifully maintained and include a replica of the White House Rose Garden and the White House South Lawn, and it is the final resting place for President and Mrs. Reagan. It’s a serene and moving place to reflect on a remarkable life and legacy.
