Traveler reviews
Siem De Cleyn
★★★★★3 years agoImpressive collection of trams and buses. You can enter, feel and experience them all, which makes it a fun visit for all ages. Would definitely recommend to also try the trips in the old trams and busses.

★★★★★4 years ago(One of) my favourite museums in Brussels, housed in a former tram depot it shows the development of trams (and other forms of public transport, incl. buses and taxis) in Brussels with a large collection of vehicles. Includes a cafe and a gift shop - and a tram ride in a historic tram through (what must be one of the most scenic tram rides in the world) through the forest to the Africa Museum in Tervuren!!!
