Skip the line at Ferrari Museum Maranello for a fast, well-laid-out look at classic engines, modern glory, and the Hall of Victories.
“It's a very popular attraction so it was quite crowded. Not a very big museum but it was a nice way to spend an hour and see some good looking cars.”
Combo ticket to Ferrari Museums in Maranello and Modena. Skip lines and see engines, Enzo, and F1 champions in about 1.5 hours.
“Excellent visit to both museums in one day and we’ll worth it. Great value for money and the food at the museum in Modena is very tasty and good value too. Thanks to the young woman supervisor of the Ferrari Spider at Modena who was friendly and kind😊”
Ferrari Museum in Maranello plus a panoramic electric bus ride around Fiorano Track and Fabbrica, guided in English or Italian.
“Ok its self tour just a bunch of cars like most places only difference to me was they were showing material selections. The guided bus tour through the grounds of the assembly factory was informative and fortunate that Ferrari is so exclusive. They don’t even have a building that shows some some of the processes when they’re building stuff it doesn’t have to be the latest and greatest, but at least the window or something.”
Skip-the-line ticket to the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Modena with films, engine galleries, Enzo’s father’s workshop, and an official shop stop.
“Amazing! took my husband for his 70th birthday as a surprise present and he was really happy.”
Skip the line at Maranello’s Ferrari Museum, then drive a SF90 Stradale in the simulator, with optional Enzo Ferrari Museum.
“Attention to the fact that the 2 museums are just over 20km away from each other would be good to know beforehand, as not all tourists have cars and when you come from a country where you can not roam and only use whatsapp, you struggle to get a taxi and the Museum refuses to call you a taxi. You cannot skip the line outside, you just have to stand in the online reservation line and when you only have a online ticket you have to go to the booth to get one printed. The simulator in the museum is better than the one at push start and we had…”
Bologna to Motor Valley for Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Pagani. Factory access, museum time, optional test drives, and an F1 simulator.
“Our guide, Ricardo was very good. He made sure we have all we need and he took care of details. Lunch was a unique experience having 3 different home made pasta with the local Lambrusco. It was delicious. The details he put in was very much appreciated by all participants in the tour. It was a small group and seemed perfect for such a tour.”
Skip-the-line entry to Casa Museo Luciano Pavarotti in Modena with an English audioguide through his home, awards, costumes.
“Sono entrata nella sua casa in punta di piedi e con il massimo rispetto, mi sono ritrovata a fissare quel letto sul quale ha esalato il suo ultimo respiro. L’ho immaginato nella sua solare cucina, seduto al suo pianoforte, ho sentito quella sua risata contagiosa. Alla fine mi sono sentita sopraffatta dalle emozioni, quando mi hanno chiesto come fosse andato il tour, non sono riuscita a spiccare una parole. Thank you Maestro you make me proud to be Italian, I hope you are serenading the angels. ❤️”
Skip-the-line entry to Cremona’s Violin Museum with an English audio guide, plus rare views of original Stradivarius instruments.
“Seeing these priceless violins fulfilled a decades-long dream. Our guide, Clara, gladly shared so much information with us. She helped us have a wonderful experience.”
Visit the Museo Ferrari in Maranello for a one-hour look at Ferrari history, cars, and trophies, with flexible entry during opening hours.
“A tour well worth doing. The museum in maranello is large with a collection spanning the history of the brand.”
Climb the Torrazzo’s 122.22 m tower with time-themed museum rooms, then visit the Baptistery’s Romanesque stone display in Parma area Cremona.
“This was an amazing experience, climbing up the bell tower gave incredible views of the beautiful city of Cremona. The baptistery was equally amazing.”
Get self-guided entry to the Museo Casa Enzo Ferrari in Modena. See Ferrari cars, trophies, and the Enzo story—flexible timing.
“Great Exhibition would have like to have seen more cars if possible. Love the short movie and the presentation”
Bologna to Modena for Parmigiano, Lambrusco, balsamic tastings, agriturismo lunch, then skip-the-line Ferrari Museum in Maranello.
“If you’re looking for something interesting to do in the Bologna region this tour is a great option. The two food tours were quite educational and delicious, and the winery visit & lunch gave us an appreciation for the local wine and food. Ending at the Ferrari Museum was also fun because we saw works of art with 4 wheels — simply amazing cars; all the display explanations were also in English which enabled us to enjoy the cars even more.”
A full day from Bologna visiting Ferrari, Enzo Ferrari, Pagani, and Lamborghini museums with pickup, guided pacing, and lunch.
“The Lamborghini Factory tour was excellent! My husband enjoyed the test drive. What an amazing day! Our hosts were fabulous and the meal was excellent.”
Private Lamborghini and Ferrari museums day tour from Bologna with hotel pickup, guided factory sights in Maranello, and a 2-course lunch.
“Ferrari museum and tour excellent. Driver didn’t speak English and had to use google translate. This was not what we expected and made a 2 way conversation stilted/difficult. The driver did try hard though. Lunch - more information prior would have been better. We were not expecting a tasting which although it was enjoyable meant our actual lunch was very rushed - 2 hours were required not just 1 hour. The owner was disappointed for us and being rushed took away from the experience. Given the cost of the whole experience we feel mildly disappointed.”
Small-group day trip from Bologna to Ferrari, Lamborghini factory and museum, plus the Ducati museum, with lunch and private transfers.
“We indulged in booking the tour to the Lamborghini factory and museum, the Ferrari museum, and the Ducati factory and museum. While the Lamborghini and Ducati factory legs included tours by guides working for the factories, the 3 museums were ordinarily self-guided. The "skip the line" treatment felt very special. The Lamborghini factory's guide was equipped with a blue tooth mic and all of the people in the group had ear pieces so we were able to hear every word, delivered in English. We were met at our hotel by Antonio and Giuseppe. As it turned out the other people in the tour were in a separate van and we…”
