There were many different areas to explore on this historic warship. Gave us a glimpse of what life must have been like during it's time of service.

During my visit to San Francisco I was not planning to visit the ship. Walking in the area I decide to go and don’t regret. Really interesting and I learnt a lot about war ships. Super recommend.

Awesome experience. Love touring on the ship that won WWII and came back home after the heroic victory. The staff was awesome. The price is very reasonable. I most definitely recommend. You will not be disappointed.

History buff heaven! It even goes out under its own power sometimes on some holidays. Those events aren’t cheap but general entry to explore the ship is.
