Museum Ferrari Maranello

A Must-Visit for Ferrari Fans – An Unforgettable Experience! We visited the Ferrari Museum in May during a family trip to Italy, and it was truly one of the highlights of our journey. My kids are huge Formula 1 fans, especially of Ferrari, so this stop was a dream come true for them. We spent around two hours at the museum, which was the perfect amount of time to explore and enjoy the exhibits. What stood out the most was how close we could get to the vehicles—from classic models to the latest race cars, each one was impressive and beautifully presented. The museum is well-organized, with a blend of history, innovation, and adrenaline. Whether you're a motorsport enthusiast or just curious, this place offers something exciting for everyone.

Considering it's one of the most famous brands in the world, both for style and engineering, I rate this museum poor. My rating worsens when I also consider the company's financial power and the cost of admission. Even though I'm a Ferrari fan, I didn't experience any particular emotion. I consider this museum just a money-making facility.

A good museum and well worth a visit for any car lover. The exhibits are beautifully presented, and the cars — no surprise — are stunning. From classic models to more recent innovations, the craftsmanship and history of Ferrari really shine through. Surprisingly, there isn’t a whole lot of Formula 1 content, which feels unexpected given Ferrari’s deep and legendary involvement in the sport. Still, what’s there is impressive. All in all, a great stop — especially if you appreciate design, performance, and Italian automotive passion.

Especially as a Ferrari fan, this is a must. Both museums are. Buy the combined ticket online as it will be cheaper and you can enter immediately without waiting. I would avoid going in August if you can, but you should still go even if you can't avoid main holiday time! While my experience was still great, the amount of people and Kids wandering around can test your patience when you'd like to take pictures. Else you'll find everything you want see, beautiful cars with explanations in Italian and English, including most of their race/championship winning cars. You can walk through if you just enjoy the beauty of the cars and take some pictures, or you can spend quite some time by looking up the details.

We came from Florence and took the train to Bologna then to Modena, and finally a bus to Maranello. You can book Trenitalia tickets for transportation to the museum in Maranello for around 10 euros each way, and this also grants you a 50% discount (Only 16 Euros per person) for the ticket into the museum. There are 2 schedules, one at around 9 am and another around 2pm. No need to buy tickets beforehand to avail of the discount. The line for buying the ticket on-site was short because everyone thought of buying earlier. It was a nice collection of Ferrari cars, with information about the history of the company and the team in motorsport. I particularly liked the room with the F1 cars through the years, as well as the trophies with the drivers who won championships with the team. You could easily go through the museum for an hour or an hour and a half if you really take the time. You can also try driving in the simulator for an extra 30 Euros, which you do not have to reserve in advance. The museum shop has limited items and not much for women fans of the team, which is disappointing. You can take the shuttle back to the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Modena and take another train back to Bologna when you're done. This would save you some time, rather than waiting for the 2pm bus schedule to return. Overall, it was a great experience to be in Maranello, it would've been nice to see more about how they develop cars for F1, but it was a great experience nonetheless.

The Ferrari museum in Maranello is an awesome experience,It is the place where all of the Ferrari winning Cars, their trophies, their history and everything is put down. This is just close to the Ferrari factory in Maranello, where the World renowned cars are made. There is a beautiful restaurant just outside of the Ferrari factory where you can see pictures of Enzo Ferrari having his meals. There are parts of cars which are there in the restaurant. The food is outstanding, specially do not miss tasting the wine and the desert when you visit the factory. It is best if you can come directly and if you’re a family take a Taxi if you’re unable to take a public transport and go buy the tickets, there are no long lines over there. It is much much cheaper than any booking from any Agency that you can do. Most booking agents will just hand you the ticket and stand and wait for you just outside the museum. Just outside the Ferrari museum, you have the Ferrari Drive experience. If you come all the way here, make sure that you do this.For that, you will need an international driving permit. if you come to Bologna. I suggest you do this.

This museum was great, road cars, race cars, F1 cars. The F1 simulator is in this museum, worth it to try if your a fan. Parking was inexpensive, was not hard to find. A good coffee shop and gift shop.

I visited museum in Maranello with my friend during summer 2024 and it was honestly awesome. The range of Ferraris blew me away, from the legendary classics to the latest supercars. Even though it was packed, the crowd energy actually made it more exciting because everyone was so into it. The cars looked even better under the sun that day (the ones that were outside). I thought about trying the simulator but decided not to because of the high price, but there was still so much to enjoy without it. I didn't interact much with the staff or anything but the whole vibe was really positive. If you're a car fan or just curious about Ferrari, I totally recommend visiting.

GO FERRARI ! Sunday, Oct 1st was our last full day in Bologna and it was a big one. Our travel agent had us booked for a limo tour of the Ferrari, Lamborghini and Pagani museums including lunch. OH NO ! Very sadly our limo driver's Dad had a heart attack the night before and canceled. Our travel agent hastily put together a replacement cars & food tour that would include Lamborghini and Ferrari. Luca our new limo driver picked us up at our apartment in Bologna around 8.30am. LET THE FUN BEGIN ! After our laidback almost casual tour of the impressive Lamborghini Museum we drove for another 20 miles or so and arrived at the Ferrari Museum around 11.30am. And it's a whole new scene....welcome to the corporate world of Ferrari ! The museum was bigger and the crowds were bigger. Of course Ferrari builds beautiful supercars and we saw heaps of red Ferraris even some yellow ones ( the 2nd most popular color after red ). At the end we hung around for a few minutes to board a factory tour bus. The female Ferrari employee tour guide ( Francesca I think ) explained lots of cool and interesting stuff about Ferrari. RULE ONE - no one can alter or modify their Ferrari in any way without prior authorization from Ferrari. RULE TWO - if you do then you and your car will be banned forever. EXAMPLE - Kim Kardashian had her Ferrari repainted pink. BYE KIM ! The tour bus whizzed around various factories where Ferraris are built...everything was closed on a Sunday. ANOTHER FUN EXPERIENCE ! NOTE - Of course with over 22 million views of my Yelp reviews and pics world wide in 2022 I can tell you what is great !

If your a Ferrari fan this place is an absolute must because you learn the history of Ferrari and the evolution of their cars which was very detailed and had a nice flow how they guide you through the galleries of cars. My favorite spot of course in the winners hall where they have all the trophies and cars around in the display it's very iconic and cool. They do have a gift shop but the Ferrari store in Milan I felt was better than their gift shop. And sim racing if you want to try it! It's also a short walk to the iconic Ferrari factory entrance where they post the flags if they win a race. I very much recommend them!

We were in Venice, Italy and decided to take the tour of the Ferrari Museum in Maranello. Being a race and car fan this was a great choice. The city of Maranello is about a 1 1/2 hour drive from Venice and thank goodness we had a driver as it was a complex series of off-ramps and roundabouts. The city of Maranello is essentially Ferrariland. The factory is huge and includes a racetrack, training center and corporate offices. The museum is adjacent to all of the buildings and is set up very nicely with of course a large Ferrari gift shop at the end of the tour, which was doing a great business. Also next door is a Ferrari Cafe for light snacks. The tour guides are young Italian ladies who who are in Ferrari garb and are impressive with their knowledge of the Ferrari history and each car on display. Kudos to Maria who was our guide. The tour starts with some of the more recent classics F40/f50, GTO... then the Super Cars-The Enzo, La Ferrari, etc, and some prototypes followed by the amazing tribute area to the F1 program. Very impressive staging and variety of the Ferrari cars. I've posted a some photos but they only scratch the surface of what's on display. Enjoy. PS, this could be an expensive trip as the pearl yellow F8 Tributo Spider is my choice.

Very nice museum that focuses more on the newer hyper cars and Formula One. I got here in the afternoon after visiting the Enzo Ferrari museum in the morning. About an hour bus ride from Modena very easy to get to on your own if you like. Nice to see in person some of the cars I have only read about or seen pictures of. The Enzo and LaFerrari are really works of art. Also seeing an F40 across from an F50 was impressive. There was also a prototype Ferrari on display. The first part of the museum made me recall the Ferrari dealership located inside the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas when it first opened. They had a couple of cars for sale but really was just a place for Steve Wynn to show off his personal collection of Ferraris. He had to close the dealership when he sold his LaFerrari after owning it for less than 2 years, violating terms of ownership. There are a number of Formula One cars but I'm not really familiar with it so it didn't strike my fancy. Also F1 driving simulators.

Absolutely great experience. Loved it. We have 2 sons, and they all over cars, especially the big one. He knows everything about cars, so he was our guide in the museum, telling us about all the models of Ferrari . He was super thrilled to see the racing cars , embrace the atmosphere of racing and the magnificence of this beautiful cars. They definitely tried the simulator and had fun

Years ago, the Ferrari Galleria (as the museum was called) was embarrassingly bland and small - much like the closet-sized Porsche museum was in Stuttgart! Well, these days, the Ferrari museum has stepped up its game and it's amazing. With rotating special exhibits (this time they had hyper cars) and a solid basic display of cars from its iconic history, it's a must see venue. Plenty of free parking around the area. A reasonable entry fee (youth and senior discounts apply) and a low pressure atmosphere make this the best way to spend a day in Maranello for Ferrari fans. Bring a camera. Get there early to avoid crowds (busses arrive with droves of fans later in the morning) and wear comfortable shoes! Later, walk around town to explore the streets around the Factory - jam packed with shops designed to help you buy Ferrari-based products and empty your wallet! Love Ferrari? This is a bucket list experience.

They have very covid-safe policies where you have to present your green-card/vaccination card before entering. They also require you to wear medical masks (no cloth masks allowed) and you can only move in one direction. The museum itself was pretty cool. It's mostly a bunch of cars (old and new) that they use to explain the history of and creation of Ferrari. The plaques are informative enough, but not too engaging. The exhibit is pretty repetitive though since there's only so much you can do with cars. At the end, there's a racing simulator and a photo opportunity (they blow wind in your hair and take a professional photo) - but these both cost extra money. Honestly, worth a visit if you're particularly interested in cars/Ferrari. As a non-car enthusiast, I was amused but not overwhelmingly blown away.

Very nice and organized, well managed and maintained clean and inviting. Nice display of all Ferrari masterpieces over the years and stories that go along with them. I recommend this to any automotive enthusiast.

This museum is better than the Lamborghini museum after visiting both. The driving simulator here also looked more professional than Lamborghini. Even though I think Lamborghini offers more value and Awd then the average Ferrari, there's something classy about the Scuderia 'Stables' of the famous black stallion will always be the king of racing!

I was really excited to visit here and was sort of disappointed, I had high expectations-as you would of a Ferrari but it was sort of lack lustre. Don't get me wrong-I enjoyed it but was expecting more. We had the dual tickets which got us into this museum and the one in Modena. They have a good selection of new and old cars here with a story about each, processes of how the cars are made and if they have a special exhibit. Of course there is the gift shop where you can find everything Ferrari and a small coffee shop. I haven't been to other luxury car museums so have nothing to compare too but after this, I definitely want to check some more out!

I'm a big Formula1/ Ferrari/ Schumacher fan and part of my bucket list was to go to Galleria Ferrari in Maranello, Italy. From Bologna, I took a train to Modena and a short cab ride to Maranello - Ferrari Land! I was soooo happy and excited when I got there. I don't remember being that happy and excited on my first visit at Disneyland when I was 4 years old. Entrance tickets were quite inexpensive and can be bought online. The day I visited, there was a race in Germany so the museum was quiet. I spent hours and hours admiring all the cars, engines, memorabilia, helmets, trophies and pictures. Feast your eyes on classic and current Ferrari models from Tipo, Dino, Enzo, F430 to California. From F1 cars driven by Fangio, Hill, Schumacher, Raikkonen and Alonso. There's a Ferrari store and a cafe inside the museum. The cafe has pastries, sandwiches, chocolate cake, hot and cold drinks. They sell balsamic vinegar and wine - in Ferrari packaging, of course. Walk about two minutes outside the museum, you'll end up at their flagship Ferrari store, across the street from Ristorante Cavallino...a few feet away from the Ferrari factory.

For a family of gear heads, this was the ultimate stop. It was a 2.5 hour drive from Barga through some challenging mountain roads but worth the trip. The museum did a wonderful accommodating my daughter and had a handicapped van available for the factory tour. Our tour guide, Famke, was excellent and explained all the various steps in the production of these iconic cars. We really enjoyed the museum that included both current and historical Ferraris as well as their collection of F1 winning cars. Worth the trip if you really like cars. We did make some purchases at the gift shop and found that while there was a premium for the Ferrari name, it was no more than we have encountered at other automotive museums in the past. The other point as that while they are a higher cost, they also were of higher quality than we have encountered elsewhere. There is a small cafe attached to the museum so stop by for an espresso before heading back out on the road.

Amazing experience! The best way to see everything and get a lot of bonus features is to book the Musei Fan Experience for only 90 Euros.

All I can say is wow My favorite car in the world and I'm lucky enough to go to the museum and see all the amazing cars and the storyline. The whole town of Moderno is FERRARI I want to go back asap

Didn't get to go inside the actual museum, but there was definitely more than enough going on inside and outside for a quick 30-45m visit. From about 3 miles out until we reached the museum, we must have seen at least 5+ red Ferrari's zoom past us. Very cool. Now, upon parking, we were bombareded multiples times by various 3rd party companies offering test drives, ranging from 80-200 euros, depending on the model and driving time. Not so cool. One lady offered me 80 euros for 10m in the Ferrari California. I said I'll think about it. Inside, there's a gift shop with a multitude of overpriced products. There's also a cafe with your usual offerings. Lastly, there's a virtual F-1 Ferrari simulator, which initially looked kinda of cool. But then I realized it was like playing Daytona (1994 Sega Arcade edition) Beginner Circuit without any opponents. Next!

The Museo Ferrari in Maranello is a must visit for every fan of the brand. History comes alive here, and you can witness how Ferrari became legendary over the ages. You can book online for a museum visit plus a short factory tour, which costs a bit more. The factory tour is very touristic though, and you don't get to see anything that actually matters. I took it however, just for that feeling of passing through the roads of the Ferrari factory. Even if it was in a minibus with tourists who couldn't tell the difference between a Ferrari and Maserati.

If you are a fanatic for luxury cars, then I would recommend visiting this museum. I personally am not the biggest car fan, so I didn't have the most amazing time here, but it wasn't horrible either. There's plenty of different styles of cars to view and different colours too. You're also allowed to touch the cars too, which is a nice change from usually being restricted from doing so. If you want, you can actually test drive one of the cars (for an additional fee), which is quite exciting. The gift shop is soooooo expensive, but you'd probably expect high prices at any museum gift store. I probably wouldn't go back, but like I said, I'm not really into cars...

Upside: It's a museum filled with historically significant Ferrari They let you touch the cars (though docents in silly outfits will stare at you disapprovingly) Downside: At 13 euros per person, it's pretty expensive. It's also out in the middle of nowhere. I'm sure there is a clever train\bus\hitchhiking combo that can get you here, but you really need a car. Which, again, ain't cheap. They try and upsell you on everything. No high-pressure sales tactics here, but man, have some shame. $10 photo booth? Yup. $200 neck tie? Check. Wanna do the F1 simulator? You'll need an experienced CPA to figure out the pricing structure. You will have a ton of people in the parking lot offering you Ferrari rentals in 15-30 minute increments, so just expect it. The museum theme supposedly changes every 6 months, and ours was...interestingly timed. We visited the museum just days after Ferrari CEO Luca di Montezemolo quit, citing that Ferrari had turned into "an American company." The museum theme when we went? "A tour of California." Something ridiculous like 60% of all Ferrari sold end up in California, so it is a vital market for this company. But still, the timing was coincidental. Also bear in mind that you can't walk around the city of Modena without seeing a Ferrari every 5 minutes, and that's completely free. The glorious sound of V8s ripping to redline rings off the nearby hills almost constantly. Granted, none of the cars on the city streets will have racing pedigree, but at that point we're really splitting hairs. Still, if you're making the pilgrimage all the way out to Modena, you might as well pay your money, the museum and the cars themselves are beautiful. Hey, no one ever said being near Ferraris was going to be cheap!

Expected one size bigger due to the History of the cavalino rampante firm. Overall excellent though.

Went to the Ferrari Museum while in vacation in Modena, Italy and my family and I loved it. It's a bit out of the way though, there's two locations: one near the train station when you arrive (Museo Enzo Ferrari) and the other (the real one) is called, "Museo Ferrari" in Maranello. There's a tour package you can buy to see both that includes a private luxury bus to get you to both, for adults its about 60 euros and for students about 20 euro. This museum has just about every Ferrari ever made, it's incredible. There's interactive areas where you can test drive a car, do the Ferrari simulator, see the process of hand building the cars, etc. At the end of the museum, there's an area where you can take a photo with either the sports car or a formula 1 car. My brother did it (costs about 20 euro) and it was hilarious. You can choose the background and take up to 3 photos to pick the best one. Great little day trip to Modena! I'd recommend any car lover to check it out!

Museo Ferrari was a lot of fun. Their exhibit is striking with rare classics including the eye watering 250 GTO along with stunning modern exotics including the La Ferrari FXX. There is also a ton of F1 racers including past winners as driven by Fangio and Schumacher presented in their champions room. At the end of our tour we opted to take a spin on the F1 simulator with was expensive, short and challenging but also a lot of fun.

What to say about the official Ferrari museum... if you like cars, engines, car racing, then you must visit this place at least once. Inside you'll find all the cars than made the history of this unique brand, including Formula 1 cars, granturismo, and "regular" cars. These together with a hall of victories showing prizes and a gallery with all pilots that competed with a Ferrari since its beginning.

Great place to go with kids.. Exciting cars and bigger then the one in Modena.. Take the shuttle and visit this place you will not be disappointed.

If you're in northern Italy (think Florence, Pisa, Bologna, Modena, etc.) and you have a car and you like auto racing and/or Ferrari, then come here. This isn't a place your tour bus is going to take you so you'll definitely need a car or a relative with a car. Like any museum, this place is only enjoyable if you love the subject and the history (although my wife and my mother both apparently enjoyed themselves). All of the recent Ferrari will be on show, as will the first and subsequent Ferrari. There's a special exhibition highlighting Ferrari's impressive Formula One history, including a F1 simulator (awesome). You're not going to be here all day like some museums (good or bad, depending on your point of view), so I'd recommend continuing the trip by driving the 15-20 minutes or so into Modena and enjoying the sights and the food in one of Italy's more prominent old towns/cities. However, before you do so, see if you can get close enough to the Ferrari factory (blocks from the museum) where, if you're lucky, you can hear them testing engines for new cars (aka beautiful music).

Was here today and my biggest grip was that when we left the other museum in Modena, the House/Museum, we were told that this one closed at 6pm. We got there at 5 and were pretty much rushed around because it was closing at 5pm. Piss poor communication and not the perfectionist attitude that Mr. Ferrara would have appreciated. I'm not a big time racing fan, to be honest but i did like what I saw in the museum. Most of the cars were the racing cars but I much preferred the others, especially the ones that they showed which were in films. There was actually a little cinema that showed "Ferraris in the Movies". I enjoyed that the most. There was also the car that "blind" Al Pacino drove in Scent of a Woman. If you're a F1 fan, I guess you'll love this place. If you're not, you'll still enjoy it but it is a bit out of town and you'll have to take a round trip shuttle bus that will set you back 20 Euros, which is a lot and may be better spent on a nice pizza and a half liter of table wine - with some change!

Went to the museum with my family, and at the store there was a baby Ferrari car, my daughter went to play with it and the store seller took it from her without even talking to me. Frankly, terrible service.

THIS MUSEUM IS INSANE. EVERYTHING IS AS AMAZING AS IT SEEMS. This museum beholds the most legendary road cars, racing cars, and formula 1 cars ferrari has ever made. From older icons, to the new one-off cars, this museum has it all. The room of all the f1 cars (including michael schumachers very own) was my favorite. Also it shows a lot of valuable and breathtaking items of ferrari drivers. The gift shop is absolutely amazing I couldn't believe ferrari even made so many things that weren't cars haha. Every exhibit, car, piece of history, and every single item in this museum is absolutely incredible. Also, its right next to the ferrari restaurant, the legendary fiorano test track, and many supercar rental places where you can rent very rare and amazing (not the cheaper models) ferraris and lamborghinis as well. I didnt want to leave this place.. i fell in love

If you are even remotely into cars or racing, I highly recommend that you make the trip out to Maranello to see this museum. The cars and pieces of history here are simply stunning. Maranello is a bit of a drive between Bologna and Modena, so if you don't have a car, I highly recommend signing on with a tourist bus or taxi service. There are tons of them that routinely go to the museum, so this shouldn't be too much of a hassle for you. The museum is best described as existing in 4 different sections. The first section a display of some of the rarest and most powerful Ferraris in the world. Many of the cars displayed here had less than 100 total made. All of the jaw dropping motor specs are also listed alongside the car. The next section is by far the largest. This is the F1 section of Ferrari. The cars of every F1 champion is here along with video, helmets, and other memorabilia from those years, including Niki Lauda and Michael Schumacher. The cars here are absolutely stunning and help you to see the evolution of how F1 cars looked over the history of the sport. The next section is really adjoined to the last section. This section is a series of displays showing you what it's like to control an F1 Ferrari and the science behind the motors and other aspects of the cars. The final section is the display of all of the championship GT cars that Ferrari has fielded over the years. If you're into the tech side of the sport, this room is fascinating. The gift shop here is pretty great, but as with all things Ferrari, it is super expensive. We're talking 50+ euro for a keychain. But if you've got the coin, this is where you want to spend it for Ferrari merch. And afterwards, you can go across the street from the museum and drive an actual Ferrari around the Maranello countryside for a large handle of euros.

Although small it worth visiting if you are in town or passionate about cars. It is lovely to remember the "old" and "new" Ferrari's as homage paid to Schumacher.

While vacationing in Emilia-Romana we had an hour to kill and decided to check out the Ferrari museum. It is, in a word, a shrine, to all things Ferrari. Beautiful, sexy red cars, racing history, and an interesting perspective on the evolution of heir production cars. The museum was fun, the gift shop was insanely overpriced.

Was here at noon. Impressive facility, but most of the basement was being renovated so we missed out on a lot of display space. Still worth it.

Meh...you REALLY have to be a fan to go out of your way to get to this museum. It is nice and you get through it quickly. I do not recommend spending money on the race track tour (your bus drives through parts of the race track- you are not allowed to get off or take pictures), your money is better off spent elsewhere unless you are a BIG fan. Gift shop is overpriced.

Where to start, being one of the biggest Ferrari Tifosi out there I had to visit Maranello and Modena. I made my way out here all the way from California so I knew mostly what to expect when getting here. The trip itself as others who've reviewed before me is quite the trek. Once arriving to Modena via train from Bologna, we took the Ferrari shuttle which turned out to be very efficient. Upon arrival to the factory/museum grounds you could see countless Ferrari's on the road leaving the factory (presumably for a test drive). Touring inside the museum you will see many famous F1 race cars as well as Ferrari's "attempt" at Indy car racing. It's true you'll see a lot of California themes in here but at the same time this changes every 6 months. Lastly, the gift shop is expensive but when you travel here all the way from CA you overlook that factor with some caution. We ended up buying a flag with the Modena colored background, and a Ferrari bottle for our son! Will definitely return again!!!

We rented a car specifically so that we could drive to the Ferreri museum. it is a must see if you are staying in Florence and not too long of a drive from there. the museum had many English signs that you could you read and had a very nice display of racecars from old to new. They had a lot of technical displays that explained about the technology behind the parts. A must-see for any Ferrari fan.

The actual Ferrari museum was a neat experience but I was somewhat disappointed with the private tour of the Ferrari factory. We had a 2 year old and a 5 year during the tour which was very kid friendly and we were able to take the kids on the tour as well. The tour guide had to translate everything she said about the factory in both Italian and English which is understandable but it also meant that if she spoke for 40 minutes, it was only 20 minutes of information that you got. They also were very particular about phones with camera. They put a special tape on your phone for you to not be able to take pictures of the factory. So I would give the museum a 4 star and the actual tour a 2 1/2. Even though as a Ferrari enthusiast I would still highly recommend getting the tour. Just don't be disappointed by the simplicity of the tour. You won't be getting off the bus at any time during the tour.
