National Automobile Museum

WOW, hard to describe! If you are in Reno, don't miss this stop, even if you are not a car fan. The incredible job of recreating the storefronts with the cars parked out front is amazing. All indoor walking is easy, and park benches along the way to sit a spell. The staff is amazing; they love their jobs and can't wait to explain all of the details involved. Plenty of selfie stations some with costumes. Really nice exhibit with so much history.

This Museum was really Awesome!!! They have so many nice and interesting cars to look at. I think they said about 240 cars. We paid $15 for Adult General Admission. They also offer tours but we unfortunately did not have time. I recommend visiting this museum if you have never been. 10/10 would visit again.

Really cool museum if you want to learn more about cars and the history behind them! I believe they have 200+ mainly cars pre 1940s but they also have some fun cars that were in movies.

The volunteers are super nice and great if you have questions!

Fantastic, surprisingly amazing place to spend a few hours. If you have a chance to take a tour with the docent - you'll find this even more interesting. Incredible collection of trigger point and history making automobiles gives you a feel for the evolution of the entire automotive industry. So many interesting exhibits, informative signage for each, and really nice displays - like gas stations, streets scenes, and other great setting to complement the autos. The story of how this exhibit came to be is almost as interesting as the autos themselves. I learned so much from the docent, and I thought I was already kind of a car guy. I'll be back again, it was that good! Highly recommended, even if you're not a car guy - you'll learn why cars today work the way they do, and reasons why. Thanks for making this such a great museum!

Gear head delight! Walking through the historical innovations of what made our modern motors today was a treat, and very informative and friendly staff. I must visit if you love cars/history!

A gem of a place and an affordable way to spend the afternoon. Perfect for all ages, and LOTS of interesting information, if you have time to take it all in. Definitely recommend.

It is a wonderful place to see a lot of vintage cars and movie cars, especially the real F1 cars of former F1 champions Raikkonen and Hamilton! Staff are warm, friendly and well worth watching!

Fantastic museum, with a large variety of cars.
Thoroughly recommended.
Easy parking and you can come and go all day, so handy if you want to walk into downtown Reno and then come back

Highly recommended! If you have an hour or 2 to spare, use it here! It's incredible! So many cars and in different areas from the 1900s to present. Every car has a story so if you want to read all of them, it might take you 3 to 4 hours. Very friendly and helpful staff and clean restrooms. Plenty of parking also.

Had a 5 star visit today! Got to see the Paul Newman exhibit and it was wonderful. The only thing missing was hearing the sounds of the engines and smell of racing fuel. Double bonus - four Formula 1 cars. Lots of other great historic cars to see but I was there for the race cars. Bought a membership so I can go back as often as I like. Friendly, knowledgeable staff, too! I had a great time.

This place is amazing they have so many cool cars you could spend a day in one room. They even had the car from the back to the gutter movies. A new car they got is a barbie car which is really cool.

We loved everything about this museum. The displays are amazing. The people who work there are friendly. There is even a movie theater inside to learn about automobiles. Love the history lesson of the automobile with all the visual aids ;^)

Very big and well designed
We spent about 2 hours here. They have seniors and AAA discounts

Wow. Very fun place to visit. My favorite cars that I've seen is Toy Story Yo Truck, Tesla, Jurassic Park, Grease, and Back to the Future. So cool. You're in for a treat. Highly recommend this place.

This place is amazing! The amount and variety inventory is truly astounding. Their display galleries are gorgeous and well thought out. Super helpful, friendly staff. I’m so glad we found this museum and visited it while in Reno. I highly recommend it, you won’t be disappointed.

Great place to visit even if you don't love cars like your kids do.

Fun museum to visit. The car placards have detailed information about them. The sets that they have created to go along with the cars add an immersive effect. I wish they had some hands-on stuff for children or a vehicle a child could get into. Even an old car horn a child could honk would be nice. My daughter still enjoyed herself but this is definitely more aimed at adults.

Fun for the whole family! Lots of really cool cars and historical cars too.

Really great collection of cars - especially their late 1800s and early 1900s models. Descriptions for the cars were detailed and interesting as well.
Gift shop has a lot of room for improvement (sparse and not much for kids) but honestly was great in its own way because we didn't get anything.
Volunteers are very friendly and welcoming.

After so many years of saying, "we should go" - we went! Enjoyable and affordable! Gentlemen at the front desk offered us a membership which was not a whole lot and my family and I can come as much as we want now - as well as receive invites to events by the NAM, good looking out John!
