This is staffed purely by volunteers. They are amazing, very friendly, and helpful. The exhibits are fantastic, my first car, an Austin A30, was there prompting lots of memories. Old garages and shops with stock appropriate to the year. 5 star x

Excellent surprisingly large museum, well presented with fascinating range of exhibits. The enthusiasm of the team is infectious, and the cafe definitely worth a visit too. Their collections are displayed with informative notice boards, and presented such that you can readily access sections that are of most interest to you. Outside there is plenty of space for specialist marque clubs and events, which added further interest and value to us on the day of our visit.

A great place to visit. Lots to see and very well run by volunteers.

Brilliant museum with lots more to see than I'd expected. There are classic cars, buses, trucks and a couple of historic railway locomotives outside, but the real highlight was the outstanding collection of motorcycles. The layout was excellent, with recreated shops and motorcycle dealers, making for a really immersive experience. There were also large collections of model cars and ships, and a large model railway layout. The volunteers were very knowledgeable and helpful and pointed out some of the highlights. There's a little café and toilets in the museum building, gift shop at the entrance, and a reasonable sized parking area. It was great to see the workshop machinery actually operating in the outbuilding. The museum is open on Wednesdays and Sundays throughout the year. Entrance tickets provide admission for a year from the date of purchase.

Genuinely one of the best transport museums I’ve ever been to. So many great exhibits and lots for kids to do. Will definitely be coming back

I really enjoyed my visit, went primarily to see the collection of Norman Motorcycles, which was very good. Surprised how much else was on display and such a wide variety of transport. Entrance ticket lasts a year so will definitely go back again.

Very welcoming volunteers and a big array of all sorts of items of transport. Beautifully restored cars , motorbikes and a lovely display of transport related models and toys. There are old shopfronts full of bygone items that my grandma had in her house. Loved our time spent there. Well worth a visit. It is pet friendly too.

What a lovely museum! Was bigger than I expected, and we enjoyed looking around all the vehicles. It would have been a bit better if there were more vehicles that the children could sit in, as it was there were only 3 inside, and the train outside. The working old fashioned telephones were a great touch, as were the letter hunts.

Interesting mix of exhibits, very helpful volunteers, nice little cafe inside with cake and other bits. Also a shop selling transport related memorabilia and gifts. Pay once and you can visit again as many times as you want within a year. Recommended.

This is a total gem of a museum with so much to see . Make sure you find and go in all the rooms and halls. Staff also very good chatting to you. Ticket let's you return for year.

Amazing display of vehicles from Bygone Years. Appropriately placed in groups of similar machines. All in excellent condition by volunteers that do a wonderful job of making visitors feel welcome. Food and drink is at reasonable prices. Bacon baps, home made cakes, teas and coffee. Well worth a visit. You will be surprised.

So much more than I expected! It's a good size museum with old time shop fronts. Very helpful and informative staff too!

A fantastic museum with numerous exhibits. My husband loved the vehicles, I particularly enjoyed the vintage shopfronts. The staff and volunteers were friendly and knowledgeable. I'm a wheelchair user and they were incredibly helpful. They went out of their way to assist us without ever making me feel "different". Highly recommend a visit there, we will definitely visit again.

Nice little museum with some lovely old classics inside, very friendly and helpful staff, definitely worth a visit

Interesting museum lots to see well laid out good experience

My family and I visited back in November and again today, as initial entrance fee is valid for the entire year. This is excellent value for money, and the volunteers have done an amazing job to make this place look great. My 2 year old daughter absolutely loves this place. Even if your not particularly into motor vehicles, this museum is still an absolute gem. The museum displays include vehicles of all kinds, shops which you actually walk into and upstairs. Our favourite sections were being allowed upstairs on the double decker tour bus, model railway (which is huge) and when it's available- using the fire engine hose to knock down targets! Well done to all the volunteers that make this place such a great day out.

One of the most exciting and friendly places to go if you are into history or love classic cars, trucks and bikes. Fantastic volunteers and staff, friendly atmosphere and café inside. One time ticket purchase gives you access for a year, sometimes there are events held like the classic bike show last weekend! It was excellent.

A very lovely place to visit and the volunteers are so nice. Thank you for this wonderful and informative experience 💙

Family friendly for children and adults alike, they have a vast collection of classic cars, buses and other vehicles that’s sure to spark your imagination on how people moved about in the past and a model town with a collection of functioning model trains that the children and young-at-heart can play with. The staff are very friendly and accommodating who are passionate volunteers for the museum and the food is good with very helpful catering team. Entry fee is cheap considering that it is valid for a whole year. Worth a visit when your around Dover.

Well worth a visit plenty to see thoroughly enjoyable day out

Nice museum with staff that are enthusiastic and knowledgeable about exhibits. Very pleasant afternoon

Amazing museum for adult and for kids as well.Very kind friendly staff.we really enjoyed it.We come in back soon☺️If you want spent quality time with your family you can here.

Great morning visiting whilst on a staycation in Kent.y son loved the model train exhibit and the train ride outside. Some areas look a little 'tired' but overall a really good day.

Cavernous space full of old treasures. Great place for adults and kids. Very friendly staff and nice little café. The entry ticket also is valid for a year! Worth checking out. You can easily pass the hours here!

A lot to see on what is a fairly small site. Subscribe to them to hear about the regular events they hold. Paid entrance once gets you access for a whole year!! Ran by volunteers. When you visit, look out for the Ted Pursey garage display, he was my Grandfather!

Well worth a visit. So many memories came flooding back and spent the whole visit chatting about some amazing memories

Great time had today at the Dover transport museum. So much to see and do. All exhibits were well presented and clean. It was good to see 'local' shop fronts and items. The staff and volunteers were helpful, friendly and good to spend time with. Let us tour but always there to answer any question raised. Please take your time and explore as you will miss something! Tickets valid for 12 months so will be back on one of the event days. Nice tea room as well.

What a lovely museum this is. I have visited once and will be back, helped by the fact your admission ticket lasts for a whole year. The whole place is full of interesting vehicles and other items. Its all beautifully laid out and the little shopping streets featured are so charming. The cafe is very reasonable too and makes a great cup of tea among other things. I can't wait to return.

Well worth a visit, once paid, ticket is valid 12 months ! was made to feel very welcome. There are loads of interesting exhibits packed in to two huge halls. A little cafe on site for a cuppa at a reasonable price too.

Fantastic museum which myself and elderly father really enjoyed. Having dementia his memory sadly isn’t so good now, but it was incredibly nostalgic for him and helped him remember lots of events from his younger life by looking at various vehicles, places and items which had been important to him. Volunteers were very patient and helpful and deserve medals for their dedication. We will be back as often as we can and would definitely recommend it. Thank you

A superb and surprisingly comprehensive museum with a great deal to see, not only transport related but also lovingly curated shop displays with all manner of goods from yesteryear. The staff are delightful and are very keen to talk about their exhibits about which they are very knowledgeable. I was particularly impressed by the motorcycle collection which is eclectic and with some important pieces. I'm looking forward to a return visit in the future.

It's a great museum everything is well displayed and has detailed information about the exhibits. Staff on hand to guide you round. Everything is clean and tidy and there are a lot of displays to look at from vintage cars and lorries to old actual Dover shop fronts displaying the goods of the era. Buy a ticket and you can go back as many times in the year for free. Well managed and well worth a visit.

Great one of a kind museum plenty to keep both old and young entertained run by very friendly and knowledgeable volunteers and to top it all pay once return all year

Great selection of old cars & motorbikes. Big model railway, vintage buses & lorries. Staff are always so helpful, friendly & knowledgeable. Pay once & ticket lasts a year. Very nice place to visit

Excellent surprise on are way back from St Margaret's saw the signs and a great museum we found tickets last all year Very eclectic collection and very interesting recommend 👌

Great place to visit and good value as the admission price allows you to visit for a year. Ideal for children also to see the exhibits of cars, buses, motorcycles, trains.
