Outeniqua Transport Museum George

My wife and I went here to visit the museum and go on the power van tour, and oh boy was it a great experience. Great trip for a family, very well priced and extremely informative and fun. The museum itself was a tad bit dark since most of the overhead lights were not on and the bathrooms did not have water, but other than that a great destination to visit.

Beautiful views over George.
You will see the old ox wagon trail going over the mountain
Take your pick-nick basked along because you will stop at a view point high up in the mountain.
You will travel through a few tunnels as well...
Visit the railway museum at the starting and end point. You will not be disappointed.

What a fantastic experience. The view is just breathtaking. Trip is almost 3 hrs. On our return the train stops at a picnic spot for a half hour...so be sure to pack a basket. This train trip allows you to see views you otherwise cannot see by car or any other means. Before or after your trip you can also have a look at all the beautiful old vintage cars. Just do it!

Great to see how well things use to be made! The miniature train museum was excellent. Gentleman that manages the area was extremely helpful

Great day trip visit from singles to families. Lots to see...from trains to cars. Many scale modules as well. Interesting displays...just sorry some photo displays' lights don't work. Entrance is free with save parking but please give a donation to keep this museum open...too many people just walk in when they hear there isn't an entrance fee. George's municipality must consider selling coffee or drinks as one spent a long time there and become quite thirsty. Maybe bring one of the eating coaches back to real life for a special experience?

Makes one wonder why railway popularity dwindled... such a beautiful trip down memory lane. Would love to see these beauties on the rails again...

The museum has previous years won awards from TripAdvisor. A bit sad that they have scaled down due to c19 2020/21. Hope they will return to the high standard they had before. Onsite restaurant has closed down. Still lots to see on display and a trip into the mountains with the powervan is a must.
