I definitely recommend visiting with children. A very interesting place. There is a cafe on site. We spent the whole day there and weren't even tired.
By far one of the best interactive museums I have visited.
The four star is because many of the exhibits had their descriptions in only Turkish.
Rest, it was splendid.
Many amazing exhibits, working models and immense knowledge.
My favourites would be the ‘how it works?’, locomotives, Cars and outdoor exhibition.

First of all, I wanted to say that everyone should definitely go to this museum. People coming from abroad, during your trip to Istanbul, you definitely have a travel list that includes historical squares with historical monuments, but Rahmi Koç Museum is usually overlooked.
One of the most important things that makes this museum a museum is that you will be able to find every piece of modern history you can think of in the form of a collection here.
You will be able to see the process of cars from past to present, you will be able to see all kinds of classic cars, you will be able to see classic motorcycles, you will be able to see sailboats, sea boats, you will be able to see models of ships, something you have never seen in the collection, old musical instruments and many more things.
I have only one piece of advice for you, and that is to devote one day to this museum, there is an inventory that you can browse from morning to evening. You will take lots of photos, read the articles and listen to the works. If you do not do this, you will not be able to enjoy this museum.
I wanted to put a few car photos I took here. I hope everyone who visits will have fun.

I went just after 10am Saturday morning. Agreed with all the other reviews. There’s lot to see and it’s well kept. More staff that visitors. Couldn’t find a decent map of the museums and when I did, I ended up trying to translate. It’s not very informative when it comes to explaining what’s on show. Worth a visit. I did it all in under 2 hours but some areas of more interest than others.
Still the best industrial museum of the EU region. Well managed very interesting. You can spend up to 5 hr if you really want to digest every section. Get ready to walk min 8000 steps.
A must visit museum in Istanbul that is great for the whole family. It is next to the Golden Horn so gives amazing views at water level, has a very good restaurant and the museum itself never ceases to surprise me with new things despite having gone there several times. Perfect for kids as they will find boats, trains, cars, airplanes and every other possible mode of transportation that has ever existed in there. This is a great place to learn about the Industrial Revolution, about the automotive industry, about how olive oil used to be made, and just so much more. One review really does not do it justice, you have to go there and enjoy it. It can be busy on weekends but even then it is big that it never feels cramped. The pictures I uploaded are from the side of the museum that are located across the street from the main building as it is often forgotten by visitors and I only discovered it existed a few months ago!
Great museum for all ages! The vehicle collection is huge and it includes cars, bicycles, motorcycles, planes and boats. Unfortunately, the submarine is taken away from the museum for the moment, but there are many other things to see there! You can also see how a car engine works or how household objects function. Definetly recommend!
