What other travelers are saying about Mazda Museum
Might be hard to book but if you like Mazda, you will have fun. Make sure to meet at the HQ lobby as instructed. Amazing collection of cars and some factory tours. My son and I truly enjoyed it.
Truely inspiring to learn about the brands humble beginnings and future trajectory. Our guide Yoshi was very passionate and didn't hesitate to answer any questions. Was great to see all the classics on display and the assembly line was phenomenal. Don't forget to book well in advance and if you arrive early there's a Tully's Inside the head office.
This is an experience I didn't expect to enjoy so much. You have to book in advance, but the fact that this is a free tour baffles me - you see the history of how Mazda has progressed and what they've created over the years, including the assembly line of their vehicles. English tours are only available at 2pm so keep that in mind when planning a trip here. We booked months in advance, and the wait was so worth it. You get time at the end of the tour to go souvenir shopping, as well as get into several different cars they have in the showroom. My only minor complaint is that the seats on the shuttle bus from their headquarters were a little too tight to sit two people side-by-side comfortably, but the trip to the museum was short enough where this wasn't a major problem. Regardless, if you love cars and/or Mazda, this is absolutely worth going to.
Amazing guided tour and exhibition of Mazda’s most significant car heritage and latest technologies. From its origins with post-war tricycle cargo vehicles to the OG Le Mans 24hr overall winning 4-rotor 787B (still wearing the racetrack dirt and all), it’s an amazing experience that also shows the design direction towards the future.
Highly recommended but reservations are a most, I’d say at least a month in advance during low season.
I visited with my two adult daughters and they were quite satisfied too, also very happy to then walk to a ‘2nd Street’ store just minutes away, for purchasing of second hand luxury and tech goods!
If I had to be super picky, I would’ve loved seeing an AWD Turbo Mazda 323 GTX from the Rally years, and one of the Nagare designs, like a Mazda5 (so sad the Furai race card burnt down).
We had to take the Japanese tour but we still enjoyed it. Everything was spotlessly clean. Even the shutter!!!
The tour guide very kindly to explain a bit in English every now and then to me us feel included.
Massive company with massive vision.
Overall really enjoyed it.
