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 recently visited the Rahmi M. Koç Museum in Istanbul, and I was truly impressed! This place is a paradise for lovers of technology, history, and art. The museum is located in a beautiful historic building on the shores of the Golden Horn, which adds a unique charm to the experience. The collection is incredibly diverse: vintage cars, airplanes, ships, locomotives, and numerous fascinating exhibits related to science and industry. I especially enjoyed the sections dedicated to classic cars and maritime history. Everything is presented with great attention to detail, and each exhibit is accompanied by insightful information. A special highlight is the interactive areas, which are perfect for both adults and children. You don’t just observe history here—you can actively engage with it. The on-site café was also a pleasant surprise, offering delicious food with a fantastic view. The Rahmi M. Koç Museum is a place you’ll want to visit again. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an interesting and educational experience in Istanbul!

This museum was a real surprise for us we honestly didn’t expect to find something of this caliber in Turkey. At first, we thought it would just be a collection of classic cars, but it turned out to be so much more. It’s really an engineering and technology museum, with clear explanations of how cars, machines, and even everyday household items work. The variety is incredible from vintage vehicles to trains, submarines, aircraft, and more. You can even step inside some of the trains, buses, and exhibits, which makes the experience so interactive and engaging. It’s suitable for all ages: -Kids love it because they get to see and explore so many things up close. -Adults enjoy it just as much, with fascinating displays that spark genuine interest. The whole project feels like an amazing and generous contribution from Mr. Rahmi Koç everything is top quality, thoughtfully curated, and well maintained. Truly an outstanding museum, both fun and educational, and absolutely deserving of five stars.
