Ipswich Transport Museum

Had a wonderful time as a family of 3 (2 adults & 5yr old)
Calm atmosphere with helpful staff that are more than happy to help when asked and very knowledgeable regarding all the vehicles of transportation. Very reasonable priced cafe and gift shop. All round a lovely experience. 5 star🌟

This is great. A nearly 50 year old dad and a 5 year old son for two hours. You can climb aboard the buses, ring the bell and see so much. Not a large museum but great value. If you do have young children be aware the toys shop is as you walk in so be ready for "I want".

This is a lovely museum with a vast array of vehicles. The level of restoration they have achieved on the trolly buses is incredible. It is all run by local volunteers, and if you are lucky take the opportunity to be shown around. Our guide was so passionate and knowledgeable, it really enhanced the visit. The receptionist had actually gone to school on one of the old buses when a child! Parking is on the road next to the museum and there were plenty of spaces when we went. A small tea room is also available for refreshments.

Wet day holiday, or any day bring the family to the transport museum. Lots to see, activities to keep hands busy, explore old buses and fire engines. There is a cafe serving snacks and meals or just that well deserved cuppa.

A fantastic collection of local transport, excellently restored and well displayed by a dedicated team of knowledgeable volunteers.

I've visited a few museums recently with my father. I have to say this museum is by far the best we've seen covering transport. The place maybe called 'Ipswich Transport Museum' but it very much tells the story of the history of transport in the UK. We went with the expectation of the museum being fairly small, it isn't. The collection on display is extensive and is lovingly cared for. There is a cafe on site, parking is close by on a public road. The museum charges a standard admission fee for adults of about £7.50. It's well worth the money. Definitely worth visiting, one of the best museums in the region. We really enjoyed the visit.

We were in Suffolk for a few days- The Ipswich Transport museum was the highlight! Great stewards, decent coffee- but most importantly- really interesting exhibits with good, detailed information. The steward that spoke about the electric tram was particularly good and went out of his way to share his knowledge. Many Thanks for a great visit in this extraordinary time!

I visited here on the 31st October with friends and I was thoroughly impressed with the content inside. Plenty of interesting vehicles on display and it was very informative of local transport history and heritage. The owner of the museum even granted us permission to hop onboard one of the trams that has been fully restored!
