Can not recommend this place enough!! Ask for Paul to do your tour if available.
We home-educate our daughter and were only in the area for 4 days, so emailed about visiting on Thursday, at 10 pm Wednesday. We then had a reply to confirm a visit was available at 9 am Thursday morning!

Once we arrived we had a guided tour from Paul, who was patient with the kids (my 2-year-old son also came) gave information relevant to their age & interests and was so kind.
Well worth a visit, the kids could also go into a few of the buses, rang the fire engine bell, and were in awe of the size colours and scale of everything!

Also it's free to enter, they just ask for a donation!

Absolutely fascinating. Very busy, lots of families, great to see children so excited and interested in these old vehicles. The museum is larger than I had envisaged, with much more than vehicles here. Road signs, photographs, badges, vehicles waiting to be renovated, an AA box, rooms kitted out as old workshops .... and on it goes. Bus rides all day, always full - there must have been 4 or 5 out constantly. We went on the open topped bus, a good 20 - 30 minutes ride. Fabulous. Lots of enthusiastic volunteers, lot's of people reminiscing. The cafe didn't really keep up, too many visitors I think. Long queues at times, and most definitely not enough toilets .. but that was acceptable given the huge numbers there. I really hope people donated generously, this was a free event, even the bus rides were free (I personally think there should have been a small charge, at least to cover the fuel used on each run), given the amount to see and do I would wholly recommend a visit to this amazing museum. There are various 'events' on during the year - see their website and don't miss out !!!!

The museum is run as a registered charity, by a dedicated & enthusiastic team of volunteers. Excellent museum, with a great range of vintage buses, cars & other vehicles. You can also see some of the vehicles attending local vintage & classic events, as well as when the museum run various special events throughout the year.

Went on an open day on 30th June and had an amazing afternoon. Loads of vintage vehicles and written history attached or in various places in th building. Free bus rides around Hykeham and Lincoln areas. There were refreshments provided by Lincoln Morrisons too, which I thought very kind of them to give there support to a local museum.
Well worth a visit and putting my hand in my pocket to support such an interesting experience, thank you to everyone involved in making this a great experience.

People who work/volunteer there are so nice.
The museum itself is very interesting!
I'm looking forward to an open day to see the buses in action. My 7you daughter also really liked it.

What a hidden gem! This is well worth a visit, especially if you have an interest in local history, there's a wealth of information there. The cars and buses are amazing to see up close, and we had the joy of riding on a vintage bus too! The staff are so friendly and willing to tell you all you need to know about the vehicles. Definitely need to go here if you are in the area!

A little gem. Took the grandkids for a mooch this morning and was not disappointed. The children loved access to the bus and enjoyed pretending to drive. Worth a visit.

A lovely visit as always. Good classic bus running day events. Lovely atmosphere and nostalgia throughout the museum
