Zooming Through the Volo Auto Museum and Best of the Midwest Hop!!!

Tuesday, January 28, 2014


A number of Midwestern travel blogs {including ours} are hosting a Best of the Midwest Blog Hop each month. Each month we will have a theme and highlight some of the wonderful attractions throughout the Midwest following that theme! This month, we are focusing on MUSEUMS! With all of the less than desirable weather this winter, these indoor attraction may be just what you need to get through the season!

On one of these dasterdly winter days, we visited the Volo Auto Museum in Volo, Illinois. We have had the Volo Auto Museum on our list for quite some time and a winter day seemed to be the perfect day to explore this indoor attraction. Now, I know that some people who are not into cars may be a bit apprehensive about visiting a car museum. But, I have to say that the Volo Auto Museum really has something of interest for everyone. The museum has its cars separated into various collections, each equally intriguing to explore.

The Layout

After you purchase your tickets, you will receive a map of the museum. The collections are not all housed in the same building, so the map may come in handy. The campus is not overly difficult to navigate but we did miss one section somehow and had to work back. 

The Collections

The Volo Auto Museum is truly full of some notable rides. Who would think this would be the case here in Northern Illinois? We began our visit by weaving in and out of the museum's collection of vintage cars---including many for sale.
