Reviews of Daytona 500 Tickets & Tours (Museum)

Shayne Deschamps

I'm sure the tour was fantastic. But my wife and I got in at exactly 11 to buy tickets and they said we missed the tour. Only giving 2 stars because there is some cool things to look at at the tour building.

Kevin Jordan

90 minute tour was about the right amount of time to spend at the track. Good tour guide. Got to walk up the inclined track at the finish line. Museum at the end of the tour was a disappointment. Overall, worth the price and time.

Gran Turismo Fan

This place is spectacular for family viewing alike! Definitely worth the big bucks for this place by it's tours and potentially upcoming races. You get really cool tours by the trams and staff that tells you history based on the track. Definitely worth getting pictures on victory lane and before touring if you desired. Great gift shop by the way! Had to stockpile on some gear ;)

Scott Duckett

Nice tour with some great race cars.

Harold Rodriguez

Very nice didn't do the tour.

Lillian Koenig

I'm not a Nascar fan but the tour was awesome!!! I never knew how steep the track is! The guide was hard to hear at times on the tram but I highly recommend taking the 90 minute tour.

Cheryl Pepper

My 16 year old son loves place, we have gone 3 years in a row.

Janette Mccollum

Something that you need to out on your bucket list. So much fun perfect weather.

Linda Schnell

The All Access Tour at the Daytona International Speedway was both an informative and fascinating tour. It was a thrill to see the track up close and personal and to walk up into the seating area, which holds 101,000 racing fans! This was 90 minutes well spent. All the Daytona employees we encountered were welcoming and kind. Don't miss this!!

Heath Groppel

It was great, and fun and awesome watching the cars go around the track THANK YOU

Kelly Fox

Awesome place. Guides are super friendly and made our honeymoon awesome!!!

Glinda Washington

We did the speedway tour and it was good, next time I'll try the all access tour, gift shop was kinda pricey and a bad experience with the id tag machine.

Lee Wertheim

Great time at the speedway. Enjoyed things could never do otherwise. Walking on the trace at the finish line, riding around most of the track . Visiting areas fans pay higher prices to be there on race day. If you have a chance take the tour.

Tom Casperson

It was a great tour. Maybe just wasn't as exclusive as what we were expecting. Would definitely recommend it you have never seen it before. Updates were awesome to stadium!

Lance Drinkwine

Very cool tour if you are a Nascar fan

Tim Baldwin

A good half day out for the family. Ride along well worth the money.

Roxanne R

We really enjoyed our tour, tour guide Roxanne did a great job. There are different tours at different prices. The day that we went we weren't able to go on the track because of a race going on but did tour the midfield area, media building. In this area of Florida, storms like to blow in during the afternoon so if you have your heart set on a longer tour, check the weather as they will not take people around in the tram if there is any lightning, etc. anywhere nearby. We had the 11:30 90-minute tour and before we left the gift shop area, it was raining and we were told the later 90-min. tour would probably be cancelled. We really enjoyed our time in Daytona.

Amanda E

We did the tour and racing experience! Was worth every penny!! If you love racing and the history of it. You'll love this track and what it offers.

Megan Chase

Absolutely Amazing Place!! My family isn't even I to NASCAR and they ALL can't wait to go back!! Next time doing the driving experience for sure!!!

Patty Horner

Very informative tour! Loved getting close up to the speedway

Justin Andrews

My Dream and it didn't disappoint!!!!

Albert Morganti

Always a good time at Hooligans. I love those Wally Wings

Daniel Botson

Great experience, a must do for any racing fans. The tour guide Jeff was very good, definitely recommended the speedway tour!

Grayson Eleftheriou

I had such a great time taking the tour and seeing the race

Melody Perry

Interesting... Wonderful cars ... Uniforms

Bill Stoffers

The tour was great. The picture was awesome. Ed was a great host he was very patient with all the guests and there childern. The museum was really interesting it had a lot of things to look at. I would recommend this tour to any race fan.

Stacey Weber

I have never had much of an interest in racing, but I have been curious about it since moving here. The regular tour was very enjoyable, and our guide was very personable and friendly. One of our group did become a convert and bought the immensely expensive Daytona 500 race tickets.

Justin Novak

Friendly staff nd vary well kept

Emma Brabham

It was awesome. Just visiting the statues and the gift shop was truly enjoyable. But they have so much more to offer us true NASCAR fans!

Samantha Grant

The museum was very nice and I'm glad we're did that. It rained so we were unable to tour the track and I was very disappointed.

Helene Patel

Tours are very informative. If you are lucky private sports car clubs will be racing on the track.

Dave Mitchell

VIP. tour was very good, lots of information. Driver/guide was great, very knowledgeable and interesting.

Mark Redmon

Wow, it has really been upgraded! Amazed at the size of the place!

ken chrestler

We had a great time.people there were very helpful.

paula cooney

Nascar's hallowed grounds

David DolerJr

Certainly was informative. Speedway is an engineering marvel. Tram driver was nice. Giving it three stars because I found the sales pitch to go with the more expensive tour and the push to buy the photograph off-putting. Otherwise, it's pretty good.

John Ackermann

Fun tour of the speedway. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. Amazing facility with lots of history.

John Chadwell

Daytona is one of the premier tracks. If you have the time, drive a real nascar on the track in the Richard Petty driving experience.

Thomas Faulkner

The tour was awesome! Our guide was Jeff, he was knowledgeable and funny!! We really enjoyed the experience!

Timothy McLaughlin

Did Richard Petty's driving experience Was AMAZING if you like to drive FAST Little bit expensive but well worth it

Joanne Hettinger

So fun we loved it

cbs331cbs

Awesome place for racing fans

Whitney Saunders

Very interesting tour. We took the 90 min tour & were able to go onto the track. I believe you can drive a race car, but this is only done I believe on Fri & Sat. I would recommend that you call in for tickets for times that you would like to go. Tours have a limited capacity.

Vivianne McLaurin

This was such an awesome experience! We were lucky to have the most amazing tour guide, Roxy, and my new favorite driver! We did the All Access Tour which included pictures that you can download off their website and well worth it. We got lucky and were able to actually get to ride down the track through Turns 3 and 4 and down to the start/finish line! They only do this 60 days out of the year and it was wow! Got to see the media room, the fan zone, and the new grandstand through the Toyota gate. Was a very fun and educational tour!

Kevin White

Daytona speedway offers a very nice tour of the track and facility. The 2 hour guided tour covers areas of the track, the banking, Winners circle, the infield fanzone, and the garages. The tour allows participants a view from the grandstands as well. The tour ends with admission to the speed museum which covers anything used in racing. Overall a very good tour. $30 each / Not bad!!

Ken Peterson

Staff was very informative to make sure my Daytona experience was going to be good.

Pam Craig

Great, lively tour guide takes you around the speedway. Fun to see cars on the track to get a closer to race day experience. Wish there was more behind the scenes access.

Joyce Booker

Best experience ever!!! Not a big race fan but this was worth the money!! To be able to step out on the race track and go behind the scenes was the best experience ever!!

Watchmens Guide

Not a big fan of NASCAR but I became one after this tour. What an amazing building and tour. Had a blast.

Susan McDonald

Tour tram couldn't ride on track because of people riding on track with race car drivers. Track made way more money from them than a tour on the track.

Jerry Grinnell

Really cool accessing the areas I've watched on TV. Only draw back was the wheelchair accessible tram wasn't wide enough to face forward. Either face left or right. Rethink the design for the trams. Make the experience great for everyone.

hmoob star

Great experience! VIP Tour is worth it!

Chris Mercer

Awesome! If you have never done this, its worth the 18 bucks. It offers a different perspective on the track.

Valerie Tirpak

If you are in Daytona, check this place out. You don't have to be a fan of racing to appreciate the speedway. We did the All Access tour for $25.00. Well worth the money spent. Oh, and Jeff, our tour guide, did an amazing job. Thanks Jeff!

robert hartman

Fun place. The tours are fun and informative. Kids will love this place and adults will to.

David Lancaster

Great VIP Tour,loved it

uncletoe9

Awesome place. Highly recommend

Linda Gunter

Enjoyed a great tour of the facility and a ride on the track. If you go to Daytona don't miss this great opportunity. They use different colored seats in case the stands aren't full so it gives the illusion of being packed. The museum has many cars and other memorialiba.

Lynn Leonard

If you are a NASCAR fan its informative. If you aren't it's still informative kind of long 90 tour.The museum is nice lots of history..

chuckling charlie

Had a great time touring the track & museum even though it was hot. You always learn some thing unique about every track.

Barbara Myers

Awesome, a little expensive but fun place if you luv NASCAR

Boo Schara

Great place to visit. Everyone at the track is so nice.

Craig Smith

We live near Daytona and had some family members come visit from up North. They weren't really into NASCAR but we took them on the tour anyway. By the end of the tour, they had a new found respect for the drivers and I believe 3 new NASCAR fans. The tours is cool and the museum at the end was really cool. I recommend doing this when your visiting Daytona or if you live in the area and have never done it, it's worth it. Something I highly recommend is the Richard Petty Experience, you get to drive a car on the track, I did it at Homestead Raceway and it was awesome. Its a traveling experience so you will have to look it up.

Joshua Rasmussen

So much more than left turns! Tremendous history and the staff was awesome; always helpful and giving details on all we did.

Tami Smith

Amazing experience. Had a couple race cars driving the track. It was best to see and hear how loud they are.

Bobby Barronton

Very helpful staff. My concerns were solved quickly. Thanks for taking time to explain things for me.

Gale Beatty

Cool place to see up close

Richard Chambers

I will go again whenever I am in Florida again! There is alot history there!

Vicki Arnold

Daytona isn't as wild and crazy as everyone makes it out to be. When we asked around, people said with the upgrades to the speedway and more kid friendly atmosphere it hasn't been that way for a while. The stands are really nice, food is great and people are super friendly. I was surprised by the amount of food and beer you can bring into the speedway. I mean people brought rolling coolers with lunch, dinner and booze.

Sally Bishop

It's. A great tour worth $30.00 .

Alexandra Pastor

Very informative, friendly staff, great tram tour and awesome exhibits

Robert Stern

Had a great time on my ride. Highly recommend this event.

Hugh Wallach

This place is awesome. I Was there yesterday and did the Rookie racing experience where you can actually drive a race car several laps around the Daytona 500 race track. Not just drive, my top speed was 153mph, it was a blast! Plan on spending several hours there as you need to fill out some paperwork sign several forms and go through some safety training, watch a video and change into a flame resistant Nascar jumpsuit. You will have a helmet on with contact to your spotter through a built-in mic and headset. Everyone there was super friendly and seemed happy. . It is a bit pricey, but.. really, you will be driving a race car that sounds like a jet around the Daytona speedway at 150+mph all on your own. It is truly an awesome experience.

Candace Priestley

I had a great experience it was worth every penny

Sukeerthi Manohar

Seen the winning cars on TV/youtube. To see them for real was nostalgic..

AdamMac Trading

Cool thing to your if you've never been. Informative.

Michelle Chambliss

Amazing Tour...The place is awesome

Heidi Thompson

Awesome place must see while at track

Marco Esteves

I'm more of road circuit racing guy since I'm from Europe, but man, you really feel the magic and the history of this place! Me and my wife (and she isn't a car racing fan) had an amazing time! I wanted to give 6 stars, but it was not possible...

Don Bok

Great food, very extensive menu, reasonable prices and really good service from wait staff.

ThatKidd_JB Plays

My ride along was what I wanted. Thanks to paul for the ride, I want to become a driver when I grow up. The NASCAR experience was amazing. Try it out going 185 through corners 1 2 3 and 4! Thanks paul and next year I will be doing this again

Renee Gerkits

AMAZING. SOOO INTERESTING. LOVED THE MUSEUM.

Laurie Tottey

Its Daytona International. Didn't want to do the tours but wanted to go to the museum. Won't let you without doing one of the tours. So we just left. I would have gladly paid to see the museum. How about adding a museum only ticket.

Yoann Castillou

The track is awesome but do not take the tour! You don't see anything, you stay like 30 seconds on the track and spend the extra hour hearing the guide bad jokes

CAROLYN SMITH

If you love racing and the racetrack....you should definitely go.

Diana Gonzalez

Very nice tour. We were lucky to have some practice going on at the same time, so we had a closer look at how it really is.

marsha linton

Second year taking my son to experience "The Days of Thunder" a must for Nascar enthusiasts. But be warned if you have a heart problem don't, or head injury don't. Your brain is rattled going around the track at almost 200 mph. *****BUCKLIST

Robin conquest

It's always good to go in here and check out what's going on

Shawn Rosenthal

We bought tickets for a tour around the track and it was a great experience. The tour guide was great for the 30 minute ride around the grounds...we stopped at victory lane and drove by the garages and other areas in the infield. The museum is included for free with purchase of a tour ticket and the museum is really cool! A lot of folks didn't spend much time in the museum, but if you take your time and look around, there is a lot to see there.

Tim Sandmeyer

What can I say? My wife and I drove 3 and a half hours to come to the museum. When we arrived we were told that we would have to pay $26 per person and that we would have to go on a tram tour before entering the museum. When I asked if we could do just the museum we were told no. We decided that it wasn't worth our time and we left. It's really a shame, I've been to the museums at Talladega and Darlington and have had incredible experiences at both. Both museums have incredible collections of memorabilia, cars, and exhibits. Neither of those tracks charged much to visit and you weren't forced to do a track tour just to visit the museum. Obviously things are run differently at the "world center of racing", I've read more than one review on Google of people saying that they wanted to visit the museum and not do the track tour. Maybe its time to offer something cheaper for those who have either seen the track (I've been to 3 separate events at DIS), have a stricter budget, or who don't have the time to spend doing the whole shebang.

Jeff Davis

Well worth the cost for the tour and inside look- Ron was a great guide

Kyre Polanco

Great experience for motorsport lovers! Unique experience! Loved!

lynn bavar

It's a very exciting place. A lot of positive energy.

Justin Daniels

This was my first time visiting the Daytona Speedway and the museum was great! So much history about racing here. Not only do you have the opportunity to see race cars but you also have the chance to see motorcycles, and other things that were raced on the beach track. If you get the chance to stop in while in Daytona definitely do. The staff was all great and getting in was reasonably priced!

Clay Carter

Great place to watch a race and the concourses are a great place to sit before the race.

Julie Burall

The tour was well worth the money. I would only do the all inclusive tour. There is so much that you don't get to see if you just do the track tour. It is not expensive either way.

Paul Cohenstrom

Great experience with great friends

Ronnie B

Placed review on the track but am posting here too, amazing tours! 90 minute tour is the best choice and I highly suggest it, you'll be more than pleased. Lou was our guide and he was very interactive and intuitive over the entire complex. Worth your time anytime you're in the area!

Sanderson Warren

Daytona isn't as wild and crazy as everyone makes it out to be. When we asked around, people said with the upgrades to the speedway and more kid friendly atmosphere it hasn't been that way for a while. The stands are really nice, food is great and people are super friendly. I was surprised by the amount of food and beer you can bring into the speedway. I mean people brought rolling coolers with lunch, dinner and booze.

Rick Carpenter

The tour was great. My 1st car was a 63 Triumph spitfire it great to see a spitfire in the museum. So much more to see than I thought. The tour guide was great.

Sandy RUSH

Got our Daytona 500 tickets for 2020! Beautiful place!

Krissttian Porrello

Awesome place, champions spots on the entrance, you can hear the engines roaring from the track but you can’t see the cars from the outside. You can buy tickets for the Daytona 500, Rolex Races, endurance races, great staff. There is a Gift Shop, food for purchase, they have a car in exhibition that shows a lot of the original parts on the Nascar Cars. This is a must go place in Florida. Great experience at this place, they also do Tours from 18$ to 29$ all around the place.

Terri Hibbs

Excellent! Did a ride-a-long at 9a, brother-in-law drove a NASCAR car and we both had HUGE adrenaline rush! Did the tour afterwards, the guys a great! Huge personalities informative and fun!!!!!

Deborah Patrick

This was a very enjoyable touring experience. Tour guide did a great job of taking us on an exploratory trip around the various buildings, speedway track and grounds and he was very knowledgeable. There was so much to see and do and we we're active participants. Tickets for the 90 minute tour we're $25 per adult. We saw the inner workings of this establishment and enjoyed looking at all of the memorabilia in the museum.

Ellie Pounds

Ride along was an experience of a life time for my husband. He LOVED it.

Toyann Fong

Daytona!!! Your museum was so much fun! We had the best time. My nephew is 18 years old and has Autism. I recently learned he loves to watch Nascar. He normally doesn't like to venture out or talk much, but when I asked him if he would like to go with me to Daytona Speedway, his reply was "Heck yes!". He may not talk much, but he had so much to say about the races on his Nascar App. Showed me almost all the race clips and was so excited when he explained that he can watch "live races sometimes". During our visit to the museum, he took pics of everything (Literally! Pics front and backs of everything he could), he told me everything he knew, and what he didn't he read to me all the history descriptions. We watched all the videos/movies and talked about it most the way home. He loves the gifts he got. I know they are so special to him already. I have a funny feeling that he will use the new water bottle and wear his new shirt and hat to school. Next time, we plan to make it for the tour. He is already looking forward to it! Thank you, to all your staff for their tender kindness, in making a SPECTACULAR day for someone so special to me. Regards, Toyann Fong and Bryan

Alvonne Wimmer

Awesome all access tour. Handicap friendly parking and wheelchair Available. Great guide on tour and museum with theater on racing. Spend 3 plus hours. Special veterans rate available. Great family activity.

Wade Quinn

Awesome. A must do if you visit the area!

Alvar Orellana Mc Bride

It is really a great experience, but would be better to have the opportunity to see the cars at least on the practice race. Tour ended just when the cars started to use the track. Gary did an awesome tour providing good stuff related to race experience and the different areas visited. If you are on the are, you must visit this place

Bonnie King

A lot of changes since we have been there years ago. My husband's birthday present. It was fun and great.

Christopher Paul Beacock

A small but very interesting race museum. They had some very significant cars on display. I'm glad I went. It's well worth a visit.

Leviene Faber

Impressing! Great Hall of Fame

Brandon Walter

The tour guides are very knowledgeable and for $26, the all-access tour is worth the money.

Jon Odiorne

Was promised parking in lot 1 by section 173 When I got package I was directed to lot 4 in turn 4. He'll of a mistake. Fan experience was only ok you have to pay for winner circle And a lot of restrictions on where we can go. Impound race bad drivers not in garage much. Food great lots of seating wonder bleachers during rain delay Never come to Daytona in July Noleagable people need to be at information booth not a temp from Tim buck to. The new seats are fairly comfortable

Noel Tucker

While the history lesson from the tour guide is interesting, you can get a better tour and views of the track on Google Maps. If you do not allow tours of the track while there are cars giving rides that is perfectly understandable, but do not charge full price for a tour around the outside of the garages, that you cant see the inside of, and here is where reporters get to sit. Left the facility feeling completely disappointed as I expected so much more from Daytona Motor Speedway.

Kimber C

Took 30 min tour. They drive you right into the middle of the track and we took photos in the winner stage! The racing museum was fantastic.

John Malinowski

Awsome great experience can't wait to come back for actual race

Alexander Dahl

Recommend the full tour because you get too see everything, and don't forget to ask for the tour guide Gary! Best guide ever has tons of humor.

Sharon Smith

Great tours. Check the hours to make sure you can get on the tour. Great to see behind the scenes and cars.

Kayla Campbell

We never thought about doing a tour previous times we were in Daytona. It was really fun & we enjoyed it. The ride around the track was nice. Never expected the turns to be as steep as they were. Would love to go & actually watch a race.

Al C

Take the tour it was well worth it even if you are not a mostor sports enthusiast.

Karen McDaniel

Loved this tour! We took the 90 minute experience and was very pleased with our choice. Our driver was very informative. We toured their museum, walked the track and sat in multiple spots in the stadium. Lastly, shopped in the souvenir store. If you love racing of any kind you will love this tour!!!

matthew swiger

Nice place. Clean and lots of excitement. Lots of fun!

Winnie Anne Verzosa

It was a great tour. We were able to go and check out the entire race track and we were able to checkout the view from the stadium. We were able to see some racecar drivers practicing. I also learned a lot from the tour. It was very interesting.

Flavio Laguna

Very exciting experiênce!!! If u love adrenaline It is a "must go".

Wayne Taylor

Great tour a must see for ANY race fan.

angel feliciano

It was amazing got to ride in a nascar

Brenda Messer

Great place. Lots of memorabilia

Randy Wright

Great customer service, very informative and helpful

John Lannon

Very helpful and full of imfortion. It felt good to talk to them

Crystal Luce

From the gentleman at VIP check-in to our guide all were friendly. Truly made me happy to know DIS is my next career move as I was there to get a feel before I apply and was I impressed. My daughter did the ride along. Enjoyed learning history and being back at a track.

Pam Gillen

Amazing my three year old loved it especially seeing the fabulous Hudson Hornet!!!

Eric Philipp

Did the tour of the place very nice now I want to go and see a race there.

Laura Alfaro

Even though I had been to the Daytona Speedway for other events, coming here to accompany some friends who were doing a ride along was something special and unique. Our friend had such a blast going 180 miles an hour on the track with a professional driver that we all got so caught up in his experience we couldn't help but be excited as well! This is an extremely fun and family-friendly event to participate in. Next time I hope it'll be me on the race track!

Cliff Murakami

I suggest taking the tour at Daytona. I paid for the $25 tour. I enjoyed it and learn a lot. It takes you into the infield by tram. You visit victory lane and the media center. You can ask questions. You get take a picture with the winning Daytona 500 car. They have a museum to go thru after the tour and a gift shop that's fully stocked.

Wes Lore

It's been 18 years and still miss him rip buddy

Ken Corcoran

Get the 90 minute tour, you wont regret it.

Rlck Rebman

I highly recommend visiting Daytona international speedway and taking the tour.

TheDonHD

Pretty cool place with lots of history but I don't know why your forced to take a picture at the beginning kind weird but other than that no complaints

Jesse Nelson

Good tour lots of info and you get to see a lot.

Jeannie Rayl

Interesting to hear and was awesome being able to watch cars. Would like to see a more hands on tour vs simply riding in crowded cars.

Michael Ohr

What a cool tour. Will do again

Steve Findlay

Plenty to do in museum and around track. Food available, excellent gift shop too

Rebecca murray

I learned alot from this tour cant wait to go and actually see a race.

Colleen Annalora

Our family enjoyed the Richard Petty riding experience!!! Will never forget it!!

Scott Burdick

Such a good time, well worth the trip!

Skavanger Films

great value for money tour and muesum is awesome could of spent a whole day in there!

Kent Fink

we took the all excess tour which took 90 minutes, Ed was our tour guide on the 10AM tour..very knowledgeable and funny guy... it's a 1st come ,1st serve each day they have tours, all excess tour was 25 buck each, well worth it. get there early book a tour for later that morning or afternoon,that's what we did. we got our tickets and went over to Cracker Barrel for breakfast.......

Dan Kryling

Great historic place to visit. Super friendly staff.

Liec Butler

Definitely go for fans private tour vary pretty but vary big crowd

fzj801996

Took the quick 30 min tram tour. Great way to see the infield and learn a little history about the site. The museum has alot of memorabilia too. You get to see last year's Daytona 500 up close. And just like Disney, they drop you off in the gift shop.

Chris Murray

Disappointing for the Grand-daddy of NASCAR tracks with a lack of NASCAR/stock car info, items and cars. Keep trying.

James Klingele

the tour was awsome if your a nascar fan it is a must do if your in the area

Carol McClung

My husband and I are not race fans but we really enjoyed the tour! The track and the history behind it was very interesting, we highly recommend it.

Anna Birenbaum

This was a great tour. We were able to see many behind the scenes details of the track. The stadium is in great shape and beautiful to walk around. Worth going on with a group of kids or for a work event.

Cassie Everly

Great museum! I visited with a group and we did the All-Access Tour prior to seeing the museum which was so fun. We got to learn all sorts of fun facts about NASCAR and the races and got to see areas of the track we didn't even know existed. Highly recommended for every NASCAR fan!

Rodrick Augusto

Excellent! Staff are friendly, helpful and never let a visitor's problem go unsolved. They got me what I needed and to where I needed to be without a fuss and super efficient. Wish all experiences were as good as Daytona International Speedway

valkryeval

We didn't get to see the track, the little museum was nice, but ended soon and ot would have been.nice to get photos.inside a few cars
