4 Star Places To Visit in Moline, Illinois, United States (14)

4.5 John Deere Pavilion (573 reviews)
- Spectacular Displays!
Monday: 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM Factory Tours

Colorful, bright, hands-on displays of John Deere tractors are delightfully arranged throughout the museum! The pavilion itself has fabulous wrought iron sculptures in the ceiling. The combine in the middle of the pavilion is ginormous...the friendly staff said the cost is 1.1 million! Visitors can sit in the cabs of the different tractors. There's plenty of educational interactive exhibits. People of all ages were enjoying the whole experience. I highly recommend this activity to all! And it's free. (Across from the Pavilion is a John Deere store...what fun but NOT free! ) See more..

4.5 Channel Cat Taxi (155 reviews)
- Birthday Ride
Taxis & Shuttles • Ferries

We went for a leisurely ride along the river for my birthday. It was such a nice day and several families with bicycles used the taxi to cross or get to a restaurant. The captain was cheerful and fun. Pointed out some wildlife to us. Overall just a great experience. Will definitely go again. See more..
4.5 Celebration River Cruises (128 reviews)
- Enjoy the sunset cruise
Boat Tours

Approximately 2 1/2 hours on the Mississippi. The evening begins with a delicious prime rib buffet, followed by musical entertainment. Be sure to go to the third level deck after dinner. The sunset is spectacular, framed by the bridges. Unfortunately this time of year there is not enough daylight to enjoy the scenery along the shoreline. The cruise is smooth. Of course there is a gift shop on the boat and on the dock, but the items are beautiful and high quality. See more..
4.5 John Deere Store (44 reviews)
- Quite a selection of gear, outside exhibit too!
Monday: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM Speciality & Gift Shops

Wasn't expecting to spend any money here. The Pavilion Exhibit was closed but our tour took us to the store for some of our tour mates. I think we spent over $200! I couldn't resist some of the kids items and bought a shirt and computer bag for me. Yes this urban girl had fun. Really amazing John Deere equipment outside as a consultation for the pavilion not being accessible. Hope it opens soon. I am sure it is amazing. See more..

4.5 Butterworth Center & Deere-Wiman House (24 reviews)
- Fascinating Bit of Deere History in Moline
Historic Sites

Excellent and informative (and free) tour by a knowledgeable guide with good humor. Learned about John Deere and the beginnings of the manufacturing in Great Detour IL and then Moline and beyond. The 2 mansions (now part of a foundation) showed the affluence of the second and third generation of the family as well as its generosity toward the local community including the Congregational Church. Providing these facilities for local not-for-profit organizations at minimal cost demonstrates that industrialists were not totally profit-oriented. The homes show advanced features including showers, other indoor plumbing, and even organs. See more..
4.5 Bierstube Moline (16 reviews)
- Nice place
Monday: 11:00 AM - 3:00 AM Bars & Clubs

I stopped here when in town with my kids. The server was nice. The food was good. I enjoyed it. But the server did not wear a mask and that was of great concern to us so we won’t be going back even though we liked the food. See more..

4.0 ArtsyBug Studio (1 review)
- Cute and fun!
Monday: 6:00 PM - 8:30 PM Spent 2-3 hours Lessons & Workshops
It’s a fun place to paint a cute painting! The other students were very nice and easy to start conversation with. The husband and wife who own the studio are also extremely kind and very helpful. The only flaw was that the artist talking us through the steps was flying through everything. She wouldn’t move on until everyone was done, but it was hard to keep up sometimes See more..
