FoodieNovember 13, 2018Make sure you enjoy some sunshine in their cafe on the boat! Prices are even lower than on the streets! Best simit we tried and just 1,5TL, tea for 1TL and there are different types of warmed boreks!
Xenia TemchenkoSeptember 17, 2016You have to spend the whole day here to be able to enjoy every bit of this marvelous and overwhelming exhibition.Absolutely recommended!You can enjoy anything from doll houses to real B-24 bombardier!- FoodieNovember 13, 2018Absolutely the best attraction we visited during 8 days in Istanbul! Excellent collection of transport vehicles of all types! And you can get inside the boats, trains, planes, cars and buses! Must go!
- FoodieNovember 13, 2018Best museum! Its symbolic fare of 18 TL is very unfair. They have benches everywhere. You get a map! There are several toilets (best among all attractions of city) and cafes with reasonable prices!
Elena KiselevaApril 7, 2015Such a nice spot to enjoy wonders of engineering 🚂🚢 Also found out an exhibition of old dolls' houses. Did you know that the first dolls' houses appeared in Bavaria in the 16th century? 👭
- FoodieNovember 13, 2018Allow a full day or at least half-day! Better go on weekend as you can travel on the train, boat and submarine! They space is huge! And there's a building across the street. It's an easy bus ride
Leyla GahramanJuly 3, 2018For family’s, kids, teenagers!Lots of cars, planes, trains etc There is cafe inside. Also there are ramps everywhere so it’s easy to go there with toddlers in stroller. Recommend!👍👍👍
Levent ErtogluOctober 18, 2015One of best museums in Istanbul. Major exhibitions include auto, marine and rail vehicles. Has a quality restaurant by the sea ran by Divan. Dont miss ship cruise and submarine- Burcu YatmazogluSeptember 5, 2018Happy place of the vintage lovers! The museum is dedicated to the history of transport and communications.It's is located by Golden Horn. Have lunch or tea at the Halat Restaurant or Cafe Du Levant.
Salem AlissaApril 6, 2014Love it. If you want to enter the submarine go there early. The submarine closes before the museum. The museum closes at 8pm in holidays
- FoodieNovember 13, 2018You can get a live demonstration of how all electronic appliances work through their transparent models! Very insightful both for adults and kids! There are also first models of computers!
- Andrey DemidenkoApril 2, 2016Must seen "How does it works" exhibition. Start engine, switch on washing machine and look inside.

Abeer VFebruary 2, 2017I will bring my grand children here to see the technological changes we have seen over all these years! Crazy collection.
YazzJuly 29, 2014Like my cousin said: "Mr Koç has given the people what their government failed to do." Put this on your to-do list for Istanbul. Warning: Stay away from their ridiculously overpriced restaurant!
Büşra SariogluMarch 1, 2019Well, we went as a school trip. We have been visiting thia museum for the past 5 years. But this year It was awful, awful, awful. Way too crowded.
For any age group; first place to visit in Istanbul...

"As the name of the museum suggests, the descriptions of each exhibit focuses on contextualising the invention in history, and provides little technical information on how each invention works."
