Missouri Sightseeing and Excursions
Moto Museum
This one of kind museums has a collection of rare and vintage motorcycles from the many European manufacturers that existed before 1975, all the way back to the beginning of motorcycling around 1900, many beautifully restored to their original condition. Our 6,000 square foot museum has retained much of its "retro" look adding to the nostalgic feel of the era. Talk show host, Jay Leno is a big fan of the museum too. www.1856.com.
American Jazz Museum & Negro Baseball Museum
The sights and sounds of a uniquely American art form come alive at the American Jazz Museum in the Historic 18th & Vine Jazz District in Kansas City. This is the place where jazz masters such as Charlie Parker, Count Basie, Big Joe Turner, and hundreds of others defined the sounds of the 1920s, 30s, and 40s. The museum includes interactive exhibits and films, educational programmes, the Changing Gallery, the Blue Room jazz club and the Gem Theatre, a 500-seat performing arts centre, all tell their own story about the good old days. www.nlbm.com.
