I am moving my daughter and her husband from NC back to Idaho next month and since we will be going by Nashville thought we would swing up and check out the NCM. We will be there the day after the C7 reveal so hoping there is something to look at up there!
My question is how long does it take to go through the museum? Just trying to figure out a schedule and was wondering how long to plan for..

Thanks

I went to the Museum in October. I took my time to look at all of the cars, displays, and watch the video in the theater. I spent 2 hours in the Museum and about 15 minutes in the gift shop. And I think that is about the amount of time it takes to fully take advantage of the Museum.

I usually spend 15 min in the museum and 2 hours in the gift shop since I have been there so many times.

This sounds like me!!!

I figured 2 to 3 hours total...

I spent at most an hour in the museum and a good half hour in the gift shop. It really depends on the individual as you go through the displays on your own.
For planning purposes I would say 2 hours is more than enough time.

And plan on another 45 minutes to have lunch at the Museum's grille.

Yea, you HAVE to get some ice cream from there. I know it will be January when you are there but my goodness it's awesome! A local dairy farm makes it for them and I could eat my weight in it lol

Plan on 2-3 hours at the NCM. Plus, get some real BBQ while in TN & KY. Mammoth Cave is a good stop nearby. And if you like whisky, check out the Bourbon Trail between Lexington & Louisville.

Cheers,

I wish we had that kind of time.. Probably once the tour is over and I've worn out the credit card at the gift shop we will be on our way.. long ways to go...

You're going to LOVE the museum. Everything about it is first-rate, especially the people who operate it. The museum store is fantastic. BTW, if you have a museum membership you get a 10% discount on purchases from the museum store.

If you are looking for a great place to dine the night before, remember the Montana Grill

Factory tours are suspended for a while though.
