    Wonderful museum to take kids intrigued by the historical transformation of off-road vehicles. The Land Cruiser’s are presented in chronological order from the earliest to latest models, each with a placard explaining its origin, journey, and manufacturing specs. I took a handful of youth clientele to visit and they loved it! There are rare, one-of-a-kind models on display with one in particular restored by using parts from 20+ different models. 🛻

    The Land Cruiser museum is amazing - one of the biggest highlights of my visit to SLC for a Toyota nerd like me. I could have spent the entire day there - it is rich in history, the exhibits are fantastic and I greatly appreciated being able to scan QR codes to listen to the stories behind almost each and every Land Cruiser. Special shout out to Bob (Toyota engineer visiting from Michigan) and Jules for our conversations, their hospitality and making our time 14 hour drive such a worthwhile, extraordinary and memorable visit. Highly recommended!

    If you love Land Cruisers, this is the place for you. I was happy to walk around and read the sign boards of around 100 vehicles that have come from all around the world. Land Cruiser embodies the spirit of adventure and I was happy just being near such cool vehicles. Each one is a piece of art. And if you come visit here, do yourself a flavor and go eat at the famous Red Iguana restaurant, or one of the fantastic bakeries nearby. A fun day.

    The Land Cruiser heritage museum is a must-see for any Toyota or Land Cruiser enthusiast or owner. An extremely well preserved and presented collection in a super cool building. There are so many models of Land Cruiser that we never got in the US that you can check out here, as well as the vehicle that started it all and the 20 series. Vast collection of all series and their many variations, in many different conditions, from many different places, with many cool stories. They seem to mostly have 40 series, but there is plenty to look at no matter your preferred flavor of Land Cruiser, including the Mega Cruiser, an ICON 40 series, three different series of firetrucks (including an Iron Pig), and they even have 100 and 200 series on display. They only had 3 80 series but the collection will probably evolve as the collector status of them becomes more significant.

    My dad an I drove a 1992 Model 77 Land Cruiser from Virginia to Salt Lake City last summer. It's sitting on display at the museum now. The guys who work there do it out of passion for what the vehicles represent. They do an amazing job giving the trucks the respect they deserve. As much as I miss my Model 77, its an honor to have it on display at the museum and I can't tell you guys how awesome it was to tour the museum. One of my treasured memories of visiting the museum is seeing an old beat-up 70 series that was a 2012 model year, but lived its entire life as a mining vehicle. It was permanently stuck in 4-L. It was amazing that only a 70 series could withstand such a harsh environment. All the other vehicles would only last a couple of months. If I remember correctly, the 70 series could last up twice as long as other competitive vehicles. The other vehicle that I really enjoyed seeing was the "better-than-factory" restoration some guy did to a 40 or 60 series. It looked brand new because a guy spent a number of years restoring it so well that it was in better condition than what would have rolled off the assembly line back in the day if you could believe it. The engine bay was immaculate. Seeing the 105 was also a treat too, my dad is a huge fan of the 100 series. Me on the other hand, I miss my 77 more than you might believe.

    I never knew a museum could make me feel this way. This was one of the best experiences I have ever had. And it is all thanks to the very knowledgeable administrator of the fleet of trucks Jules. If you ever get the chance to go, you need to go. It’s a spectacular sight to behold if you love Toyota Land Cruisers. Thank you so much Jules!

    Absolutely loved this place I was there for about 2 hours and could have easily doubled it. the QR codes with the audio are key and make the museum so much more engaging I loved hearing about all of the trucks. Only thing that would have been perfection if there was an option for the audio tour to be one long tour vs having to tap each one individually. But I still really enjoyed it! I've recommended it to all my fellow automotive people to visit!

    This is such a phenomenal museum. It’s so much fun to go through and compare versions of Land Cruisers. There’s a wealth of information to learn and enjoy, you can spend a lot of time here if you have it! Love coming for Coffee and Cruisers, too!

    What a great museum, dedicated to the Toyota Land Cruiser. Fantastic set up, countless Cruisers from old to young from all over the world. Dan Busey (the resident Land Cruiser expert) gave us a warm welcome and also helped us out in finding a specific part number for our Cruiser. Absolutely worth a visit, a must as Land Cruiser owner, but also fun for everyone who likes classic cars in general.

    If you are a fan of the Toyota Land Cruiser, this place will not disappoint. I took my son to this place and it's a gem. Who would have thought a place like this existed? We happen to be staying close by and just came across this place. Some amazing Land Cruisers from all over the world.

    I finally got to visit this amazing museum. I was there during my solo UT trip. Luckily when I got there, no people there and I got to enjoy the place literally just by myself for three hours ALONE!!!There was a lady named Jules at the reception desk. She was really nice and gave me a quick explanation of the museum. I got to have quiet time there taking photos and videos and learning each model of the history. I got in my truck and was about to leave, and I realized that I completely forgot to take photos of myself in. Jules came out and “you forgot to take pictures!” She offered me some help to take some photos of me inside. Very kind of her. She also gave me some tips of good trails in UT. She knew the area and was very helpful. Thanks very much, Jules! You are the best! I highly recommend this place to visit if you are Toyota enthusiast.

    Interesting place.....if you like land cruisers this is a great place to go and see some. I'm not sure I would call it a heritage museum. There's some basic info on each of the land cruisers there and some specific model information but I don't know I would go as far as to call it a heritage museum. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the visit and was cool to see some of the Expedition 7 stuff but I kind of felt more like a garage show room. I think a little more history on the models and information would make it better. With that being said we just walked around reading stuff, not sure if there was an audio tour or not. If there is, that may have more of the history and info, not sure.

    I was blown away by the variety, and amazing display of the Toyota Land Cruiser. The museum appeals to all ages, whether you are a cruiser enthusiast or not, you will be amazed. A tour and stories about how these vehicles individual history is a great way to spend a couple of hours.

    Amazing museum. The curation of the exhibit through the history of Land Cruiser from the very first year thru present is spectacular. Definitely a place to visit if you love 4x4 or just a gear head.

    If you are either a off road enthusiast, toyota fan, or just love cars this is an absolute must visit. They are in a building that is over 100 years old that just adds to the charm. Loved every minute of walking around checking it out.

    I have an amazing experience visiting this L.C Museum. I learned so much about L.C. history. I never thought it had a similar body style as Jeep. It was worth visiting.

    A must see for Toyota Land Cruiser enthusiasts. An amazing collection and well worth a visit if you are in SLC. Each vehicle has a placard and story line. Dan is a fantastic host and historian. Well done and keep up the great work.

    What a magical place! The founder and staff have done an AMAZING job of assembling and organizing a fantastic collection of vehicles and memorabilia. Even if you're not necessarily a "land cruiser enthusiast", it's still worth a visit!

    This place is outstanding! I’ve been to quite a few car museums in my life, this one ranks near the top. I look forward to returning. I believe they currently have 95 Land Cruisers from 1955-2020. I’ve always admired the Land Cruiser, and hope to have another some day. They had so many variants from all over the world. How they’ve been able to put together such an extraordinary collection is beyond me. On top of all the vehicles, they have a huge collection of literature and memorabilia. Not to mention a fantastic docent.

    Absolute must see if you’re a Land Cruiser geek like I am! I stopped while passing through Salt Lake City and had such a great time reading about the history associated with each Land Cruiser as well as seeing all the different types!

    My boyfriend loves Land Cruisers and greatly enjoyed our visit. Greg Miller, the Founder, is extremely informative and has a very rich history with and knowledge of the vehicles - my boyfriend geeked out with him. Even as a Land Cruiser novice - I enjoyed the visit and learning about their use. Very cool experience, recommend.

  • 5/5 Katherine C. 3 months ago on Google • 5 reviews New
    We’d been wanting to check the museum out since moving here especially since we are Toyota owners and have always wanted a Land Cruiser. Their collection is super impressive and the staff is so kind and knowledgeable! It was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon and I’d totally go back

  • 5/5 Caitlin H. 3 years ago on Google
    Wow! Such a unique and cool place. The coolest collection of land cruisers and so much history behind each one. The stories of the expedition 7 and others were so fun to read. The clothes & decals were awesome, too. Dan is so friendly and helpful. Answered all of our questions. Thanks for the great time 😊 Definitely worth it to visit if you are a fan of Toyota land cruisers!

  • 5/5 Nicholas V. 3 years ago on Google
    AMAZING EXPERIENCE! If you want to see a very large collection of extremely rare Toyota, this is the place. Will definitely be back next time through SLC.

  • 5/5 Mike p. 3 years ago on Google
    Loved the experience I had here. This museum was well organized with 101 Land Cruisers here, and the oldest one they have was from 1953. The guy Dan was super informative. Highly recommend paying a visit here if you are a Land Cruiser fan.

  • 5/5 Chris W. 10 months ago on Google
    I am a Toyota and Land Cruiser fan so this was an especially enjoyable experience for me, but I believe this would be a fun experience for anyone who enjoys automotive history. There are currently about 100 cars on display and everything is spaced out nicely in a large open area. Each car has a placard that talks about that particular iteration/generation of Land Cruiser and most of them also have a QR code where you can listen to the unique history of that specific vehicle. We spent about an hour but you could definitely spend twice that much time if you really wanted to understand the history of the Land Cruiser and specific vehicles more. This is also an experience that I would go back to a second time.

  • 5/5 Bryant G. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is amazing. I wasn't prepared for that. This is one of the places my son wanted to go see as we traveled the United States for vacation this year. If you get an opportunity stop in. The person checking us in was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to talk with. The cost to enter is worth every penny.

  • 5/5 Nathan S. 3 years ago on Google
    Really cool! So many cool cars, a great place to visit if you have a spare hour or so. They are open during the pandemic too!

  • 5/5 Sydnie F. 10 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Donovan C. 9 months ago on Google
    Phenomenal exhibition of vintage and modern landcruisers staffed by people who love the vehicle and its heritage. I could have spent the better part of a day in here, admiring the cars and listening to the fascinating audio recordings that go along with each of them. I highly recommend stopping here if you’re a land cruiser enthusiast, an off-road enthusiast, or anyone who likes cars and friendly, expert staff.

  • 5/5 Garrett S. 11 months ago on Google
    Excellent museum with informative displays. Each vehicle has its own information plaque and QR code for audio tours. I don't own or nor did I know much about Land Cruisers before but the museum was very interesting as an automotive enthusiast.

  • 5/5 Colby L. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome collection of amazing Land Cruisers from all over the world. Almost every vehicle has a well laid-out information plaque including the specific vehicle history and where it fits in the development of the Land Cruiser. Great excursion and beautiful vehicles.

  • 5/5 Brett S. 8 months ago on Google
    This was not my first time at the Land Cruiser Heritage Museum, but it is my first time leaving a review of it. • I recently attended the unveiling of Toyota's (currently new) 2024 Land Cruiser and it was an experience I'll never forget. I doubt the Toyota headquarters itself could have been a better venue for the event. There was only one MASSIVE problem... ...With a media event like this, it is important to keep the focus on the product you are announcing. The museum collection is so captivating, that despite my excitement to see the NEW Land Cruiser, the older— some rusty, dusty or even burnt-to-a-crisp, trucks were a constant distraction. I had BEEN to the museum before, more than once. Yet, my familiarity with the vehicles, did little to shield me from their intense pull on my attention. • I don't know what other events the museum hosts, but this one was clearly high-stakes. Despite the many Toyota executives and being under the critical gaze of busloads of automotive journalists, all in a measuring/review mind-set, the museum staff were warm, welcoming, well-prepared, and somehow seemed to be everywhere at once. I heard general Toyota/Land Cruiser history I did not know before, and enjoyed new stories about single trucks, firmly weaving the example as a steel thread in the tapestry of the legendary Toyota Land Cruiser. • With some exciting music and flashing lights, we were finally able to peel our eyes off of the heritage trucks and welcome the new Land Cruiser. It too, looks to be an exceptional vehicle. I kept imagining it personified, coming into the museum at the beginning of its life. The immense pressure it would feel standing in front of hundreds of its' forefathers, each one a branch on a mighty family tree. Giants standing memorialized in that sacred hall, eyes on the new youth, full of hope and encouragement for it to go out and explore, and be as great as they were. • A warning: If you have not paid much attention to the Toyota Land Cruiser before, you will likely leave the museum, making plans to purchase one yourself. • I would rate the experience higher, but Google only lets me click up to 5 stars.

  • 5/5 thomas c. 4 years ago on Google
    They have most if not all version of each series of Toyota LandCruiser that have been produced. They dont just have just any example of each version either, instead they are driven with a goal to attempt to acquire the "cleanest" non modified examples of each vehicle! Meaning if they currently have for example a 76 series LC that has had a patch put in place of a hole in the floorboard, But then they find out that there is another 76 series that is the same version & OEM stock but doesnt have any patch fixes & is for sale, they'll try there hardest to purchase it & replace the current one they have. They do this for the sole reason of someday to possibly possess the "cleanest" most complete collection of LandCruisers around & to think how lucky all of us are to be allowed to tour all of them basically anytime we want, So go show your support by looking around & buying some cool swag!

    This place is extremely special. They have a large collection of extremely rare vehicles. It’s special to walk the floors of the facility and see the history and heritage Land Cruisers right before your eyes. Even if you are not into Toyota’s and Land Cruisers you will really appreciate how detailed and organized this facility is. I definitely recommend it to all and a must of you’re in the city.

  • 5/5 Amberly S. 2 years ago on Google
    My father had a Land Cruiser and I learned to drive a manual in it. It was so cool to walk through the museum and read about the history. I did a bit of memory lane sleuthing to try and figure out what year and model he had. Then I asked the staff - Dan was patient, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable - and we narrowed it down to 1975 to 1977. My grandfather's would have been even older from the mid sixties. Truly enjoyed my morning.

    This place is awesome for anyone enthusiastic about offroading.

The museum used to be an old metal casting foundry and has a really cool charm to it.

    Visited a few years ago at their previous location, was a phenomenal experience with just me and Cruiser Dan giving me a personal tour. 2nd time around they have an awesome new building, new displays, and some new choice Cruisers. This is the best collection of Land Cruisers in one location hands down. Plus, the staff is just so friendly & knowledgeable that it makes it a pleasure to visit.
