5 Star Places To Visit in Monticello, Illinois, United States (2)

5.0 Monticello Railway Museum (60 reviews)
- Top 10 things to do in Illinois
Thursday: Speciality Museums

The Monticello Railway Museum is one of the best places to visit in Illinois period. Their collection is amazing. The pieces are incredibly restored. The staff are all very friendly and knowledgeable. The ride was the perfect length. My kids 5 & 7 loved it. We will be stopping frequently now. We really wish we’d visited sooner. The gift shop is also very nice in the old depot. The ride will quickly take you back to a time that was a much easier pace and things weren’t so hectic. I give this 5 stars. If you don’t love it you may just be impossible to please. See more..
5.0 Monticello Family Bowl (4 reviews)
- Best pizza in town
Bowling Alleys

The Homemade pizza is by far the best pizza in town! It comes out fast and hot. Drinks are always cold. Bowling is always fun. The lanes do jam a lot but that's part of the fun. Great staff too! See more..
