Default Corvette museum

Question for you guys about the museum in bowling green. I'm makin the 5 hour trip down tomorrow morning and haven't been there before. Question is how much time should I allow there? In other words for you guys who've been how long did it take you to see it all? We're doin the factory Monday but need to know what time to leave in the mornin for the museum.
Thanks!

Tyler

I was there in May. I spent about 2 hours there. But you could easily spend all day there if you wanted to. Just depends how much time you spend at each exhibit.

It will be worth the trip though.

Lots to see, you need to plan at least a couple hours at museum, could spend much more if you take your time and read all the exhibits. The factory tour is about a hour long, you/wife can not take your phone, camera, backpack or purse inside the factory.
Hope this helps! Have Fun!

Allow at least a half of a day to see it all.

2-3 hours should cover all you want to see.

Give yourself at least a couple of hours, perhaps more if you really want to see everything. It's a great visit - hope you have a fun time.
