Really great visitor attraction. Excellent museum that has been restored with a great deal of thought. Would thoroughly recommend anyone to visit this and spend the day. There is so much to see you can spend all day there. And the volunteers, mostly ex-Navy personnel, really know their stuff and are very friendly and helpful. Five star visit.

Excellent experience learning about the ship and it’s history. Lots of hands on stuff for older kids. While I did see elevators, some of the areas have low ceiling (6’) and many ladders and bulkheads to navigate through. May be a little difficult if mobility restricted. Kudos to the many people that served on the ship over its many years in service. Oh by the way - it’s huge!

We had a great time on USS Midway. Loads to see. Audio guide fabulous. Great to have kids version and my boys loved answering the questions to get their wings.

Really informative tour, some bits incredibly moving, some bits funny but really good to...

The USS Midway Museum, a top attraction in San Diego, California, welcomes tourists aboard a massive decommissioned aircraft carrier. Without leaving port, you can experience life on a city at sea. The tour takes you through the vesselâ??s sleeping quarters, galley and engine room. Vintage aircraft line the flight deck.

The aircraft carrier USS Midway, which served from 1945-1992, offers a fascinating glimpse into life aboard a giant ship. Take the self-guided audio tour through the ship, then check out some two dozen aircraft on the flight deck and experience the simulator ride. Docents, some of whom served on the ship while it was active, are on board every day to answer questions and can occasionally be...
