Opening times are between 1030 and 1530 with the last entry at 1430. Why not come along and enjoy a great day out for all the family. All full price, annual entry tickets are valid for a whole year from the date of first entry, so you can return on as many open days as you like.

About Dover Transport Museum

We are a registered charity and the only museum of its kind in Kent. The Dover Transport Museum is home to many forms of vintage transport and also features vintage shop fronts displaying the kind of items that were familiar to our young visitor’s grandparents and great-grandparents. With a large visitor-operated model railway a visit to the Dover Transport Museum makes a memorable family day out.
