Loved this place. Hidden gem. My two year old daughter loved it and was so well behaved. The staff are very welcoming. Tram rides at two pounds each and under 5s free. Very fun day out.

Superb! We caught the tram from woodside ferry to the museum tram was £6 return for family of 4 and the museum is free!. We parked at monks ferry as it was £2.50 all day and it was a short walk to the tram from there, which runs every half hour. Lots to see in the museum and they even let me look in a tram that wasn't open to the public. Nice small shop selling souvenirs and a very small cafe serving drinks and snacks

Fabulous exhibits of buses, trams and other road vehicles on show, all well maintained in excellent condition. So much to see, a camera is a must to have with you. The volunteer staff there are very helpful and friendly. It's an amazing place to spend an hour or so and it's free.

What a hidden gem. This is an amazing place run by some very enthusiastic and skilled volunteers. The place is filled with fantastic original trams buses and historical vehicles, along with an amazing model railway. Birkenhead is the birthplace of the trams and this is a must place to visit. We brought our your 2 and 3 year old grandchildren and absolutely loved it especially the tram ride to the ferry terminal. It's easy to get to by Ferry from Liverpool or on the Liverpool underground with the station a few hundred yards away.

May be useful to potential visitors if the website was updated more frequently. I'm sure something must have happened since November 2019
