Plan on spending the whole day there... - What can you say about this place that hasn't been said already! First, plan on being there the entire day, you'll need that much time to see everything. Second know that there's enough stuff there for anyone in your group to spend time with. Just a little bit of everything under a couple of roofs. It's mostly handicap accessible, and they have a restaurant and picnic areas outside - and know that the cost of the tickets are expensive, but I would say worth it. Know that the Titanic exhibit is more of a Titanic-ish exhibit... Unless you're truly a fan of it, I just would pass on that one because it's an extra cost. You'll probably run out of time before you run out of things to see, so go have fun.

Total Respect to All - After reading the reviews, we cannot wait to see this place. It's unfortunate that some people have such a disrespect for President Trump. He is a part of America's history just as President Obama was. We really hope you still have the Trump limo and image of President Trump when we get there. No matter what your political views are, please show respect and remember we ALL live in the greatest country in the world!

OMG they have the car from .......... - Our 2nd trip to this place, so much to see and do. The collection of movie cars and vintage cars and other motorized transportation is amazing. Its very cool to be within inches of some screen used vehicles from the movies you love. The Blues Mobile and Griswold Truckster, and General Lee to name a few. They have vast collection of things to see, something for everyone! The Titanic exhibit is new and very moving with some very rare to one of a kind automobiles from the time. The Crime and punishment part was great! Just to see the car from Bonnie and Clyde movie up close was awesome. We love this place and can spend several hours there! Worth the trip!

2024 Volo auto museum - Great place to spend the day with family and friends of any age. Awesome Vintage & famous movie cars plus an amazing military exhibit. We also checked out the Jurassic Park and Titanic exhibits and we were not disappointed. We also enjoyed walking through a gigantic antique mall on the property. Would do it again.

Gold package was good for adults - The gold package included the museum and Jurrasic garden but no Titanic. This worked great for us as we took our 3 year old grandson who loved the dinosaur portion. Grandson also liked the cars, but not being able to touch them was a problem. He did, however, enjoy the merry go round and all the old coin operated rides and outdoor playground. We grandparents went back the next day on our own( as next day is free as part of the gold package) and saw everything. Cars were very impressive as well as all of the movie vehicles. Military section was small but very nice. Loved seeing the outboard motors, motorized bikes, skooters and also the RV's. Many people were eating in the restaurant area...pizza and hot dogs ( we did not). The gold package was quite expensive for just the one day...90 minutes, but was quite reasonable for two days. We did not do the Titanic exhibit as we have seen several over the years. All exhibits nicely staged and had good AC. Washrooms all over which was nice. Arrows were drawn on the walkway to efficiently get you through all the exhibits and buildings. Overall a very nice experience. Parking was plentiful and free

Interesting place to spend a day - We enjoyed the museum. The cars were endless and presented in an interesting manner. There were lots of cars from movies and TV shows. They had a large area of the kids rides that use to be in front of dime stores in the sixties. We were lucky to meet Rich in the area with the giant music machines. We played several for a dollar. Then Rich showed us how the machines worked and how he got them in working order.It was interesting. Thanks Rich! The museum had an interesting camping section and a war area. You need several hours to go through the place. They have a snack shop to stop and take a break. It was worth the 90 minute drive!!!

Phone appraisals are a joke - The museum is a really cool place to visit, but for the lack of any other place to review I will do it here. My dissatisfaction is with their appraisals from what I see on their website an individual can obtain a appraisal in person or over the phone So If were a person looking to get a high appraisal I would go with the phone appraisal. you send them pictures and tell them about the vehicle lying and making picture seem like things are all good when they are not. The issue with this is that people use Volo appraisal as a selling point because people are going to trust a company that knows classic cars and could base some of their decision on that Volo appraisal basically drawing Volo's reputation into their scam to get more from their classic car. This happened to me and of course it is my trust in people and the people of Volo and their expert opinion. I purchased a car that had been made to look like everything was just fine, until I was able to disassemble some things and found some horrible deceptions one being that the dash vents were held in by silicone other sneaky things were fresh engine paint bolts missing too much to mention and all was meant to deceive, Now had a Volo expert saw this car in person the appraisal would have reflected that. My point is Buyer beware and DO NOT let a Volo appraisal weigh in ANY factor in the decision on buying a vehicle accept ONLY a in person appraisal!

Ehh - Bad advertising. Website says they close at 5. We pulled in at 4 after driving 4 hours. They wouldn’t let us in. If we had known that we wouldn’t have drove 4 hours for no reason. Never plan to come back. We buy and sell and have our ratrods. We will never support a terrible business. They got our money though because we bought tickets online. Such a scam!
