What other travelers are saying about Mazda Museum
Booked online 1 month in advance. Our train was severely delayed and we emailed to inform them. They responded via email that they would let us catch up to the tour group if we arrived within 30mins.
Upon arrival, they called the bus to come back to the lobby to take us to the factory. For a free tour, we're very grateful for their accommodation. The whole factory area is huge and includes a bridge and port. The mixed assembly line is impressive. It's worth a visit when in Hiroshima.
We made reservations for this tour about 4 weeks before we arrived in Japan.
The tour is free of charge.
The tour starts at Mazda Headquarters.
You are then put on a bus and driven to the museum. The tour includes a factory portion. We found it very interesting.
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.
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.
Miku was an absolute delight to follow for the tour guide along with well presented information on all Mazda car history, including the LeMan 787B race car winner. Easily making it top 5 highlights of this trip.
