What other travelers are saying about Mazda Museum
Immense yourself with everything Mazda in this museum! You will learn a lot of important information as you weave through the many sections.
Exhibitions are nicely arranged; cleverly utilising the available space to make everything just neat and simple.
Advanced booking is a must via the online system. Enjoy!
We visited early November on a Friday, having signed up for the free English tour a few months in advance. Aki, our guide, was organised and spoke decent English. She had a good sense of humour and made us laugh when trying to pronounce "cork" 😂 she happily answered any questions we had between exhibits, too.
It was interesting to see just how large the production site was. You don't really expect it to be a city on it's own! The bus ride was good, except the windows fogged up very fast and it was difficult to see out of them - we had no control over our air vents, which were all switched off, and it got stuffy inside quite fast.
There were a few special cars in the museum, however not really enough to satisfy our inner car nerd... We were hoping to see some more, or be able to hear the 787B running perhaps. That was pretty much the only thing that prevented this from being a 5-star experience ultimately. Although, given the tour was free, there really is nothing to complain about at all. If we didn't already own a brand new CX-5, we probably would've bought one after this experience 😂
2nd time visiting, 1st time posting. I love Mazda cars and the factory tour and museum are both great for any enthusiast. Great walkthrough from the first 3 wheel bikes to modern cars. There is a walkthrough of an actual part of the working factory (no photos in this area allowed). I wish the small shop had more items for sale, its very limited. Other folks have posted all the pictures of the cars but I will post some more. The history of how mazda didnt have a sales department so they had to co-brand with Mitsubishi was very interesting with the cool mashup logo. MAKE SURE TO RESERVE TICKETS .
The MAZDA museum tour was great. Bookings are essential. Best part was a viewing of the assembly line, worst part is that they don’t make the RX7 anymore. Great experience.
This was my Second time here.
With Mazda being my favorite car manufacturer, its hard to pass on visiting the museum when I visit Hiroshima.
Today, it was with my family and they enjoyed the museum a lot as well.
We also got lucky and met the director of the museum. Very cool and funny guy.
Although we signed up for a Japanese tour, they made sure to explain things in English at times where text wasn't available.
Highly recommend especially if you're into cars.
Thank you, Mazda Museum Team.
