My little sis and I had a great time visiting the Motown Museum as part of our Sister Trip to Detroit. We weren't expecting to be blown away but we were! I was really touched by the fact that all the records hanging on the wall are for songs that are still very popular- the music is timeless. The narrators... more

With personable and informative tour guides, this enjoyable step back in time to the modest beginnings of Motown is a fun way to spend a couple of hours. $10 admission was worth the price. more

This is a small museum which occupied about two hours at a very leisurely pace of my time.It emphasizes the roots and success of the Motown Sound and the Motown Record Company in an extremely interesting manner.It depicts the struggles and achievements of Berry Gordy and such Motown icons as;Diana Ross,Smokey Robinson,Michael Jackson,and Marvin Gaye.One can see the original studios... more

We had a blast, and the kids who gave the tour info were fantastic. They did a great job telling the history AND setting it in the historical context. Also you come out of there -- maybe because we saw the movie last, instead of at the start of the tour -- on a feel-good high note. This is one... more

I built my holiday round a visit to the Motown Museum, I am very pleased I went but I have to say, it didn't have much magic for me. I'm not exactly sure what it was - the Rock&Roll Hall of Fame had a Motown tribute with a film clip running, it had people talking about their time at Hitsville... more

I'm a huge fan of Motown and the museum is a great place to get some insight into the early history of Motown Records and its performers. Monday, January 12th through Friday, January 16th, 2009, the museum will be celebrating Motown's 50th and admission is 50% off. Worth the visit! more

I was advised by friends who used to live in Detroit and by our taxi driver, that the neighbourhood is a bit rough, tho. OK in immediate vicinity of museum - I was advised to get a taxi there and back. But it's well worth it - if you are a Motown fan, you can spend over 2 hours here,... more

My wife and I live in the northern suburbs of Detroit. We've visited all the local museums over the years but for some reason never gave a thought to going to the Motown Museum. Little did we know what we've been missing. I have never had such a completely fulfilling time in my life in any attraction anywhere in the... more

This is a must see museum! I was 17 when I visited and I got cousins, grandparents, and friends of all ages to come along with me. It truly is a great experience for the whole family, especially if you have fallen in love with the soul and rhythm of the music as I did. Even though its been about... more
