Day 3 - Visit to the National Motor Museum


Day 3 - Sunday 30th September - 2018

The National Motor Museum is located in Birdwood, South Australia. 

What an absolute stunning surprise this was. Every motor enthusiast in the country needs to visit this magnificent collection of vehicles and motorcycles, presented in such a huge facility and extremely well laid out. 


It stands as a tribute to all those involved in the creation of this superb and enormously varied presentation. If you love cars more then you may love wine, then this museum may take precedence over all the local wineries you may visit. Well priced and situated in a lovely town, including scenic drive to and from.

The Museum has successfully collected and refurbished, rebuilt and restored cars, trucks, bicycles and motorcycles either powered by an internal combustion engine or by muscles of humans. The collection speaks for itself. It boast of the development of motor cars from a century ago to the present day fast and furious, beautiful and luxurious types.

It is an educational tour to complete. Totally a day invested to learn and appreciate the genius of the man and the machines he has created.


Australians have embraced motoring as a fundamental part of our lives,
and for many, it has been an obsession.
