Enjoyable. Kids were kind of into it for the first 1-2 hours and then started losing patience. Overall they had enough there for everyone. VR experience helped out with the little ones. Better than an ice cream museum.

It was interesting to learn a little about the history of the Intrepid, including the World War II Japanese kamikaze attacks that resulted in the deaths of many sailors who were buried at sea and the ship as out of commission for about 3 months before returning to the war. I also was not aware the Intrepid was the recovery ship for early NASA astronauts.

It was a great thing to do on vacation. My son loves airplanes when we got to the location there's parking lot near by. But the boat tour was great lots of things to see and experience. Would definitely recommend this.
David_B, Jul 2026
It was a wonderfully informative visit. The staff was well informed and very helpful. I would recommend visiting this ship to anyone.

Fantastic value for money and a wonderful opportunity to look around intrepid!! The military aeroplanes on display have been restored to stunning condition and the chance to visit the submarine was the icing on the cake! Would definitely recommend.

It was interesting. The experience could be as short (just walk through) or as long (if you stop & read every plaque) as you want. We got to get pictures sitting in a MASH helicopter or sitting on a military barber chair. My husband enjoyed the submarine the most especially talking to the retired veterans inside who were able to answer questions about the sub. I felt very small on the deck of the Intrepid but very tall when going through the bulk heads in the sub.

Terrific venue right on the Hudson. Great history, loved the aircraft. The Enterprise shuttle was awesome.
Stewart_S, Apr 2026
Lots of interactive displays. The static aircraft are great to see. The Apollo 11 VR experience is so awesome. A must do. Overall well worth the trip.
adiel_u, Apr 2026
It was a very interesting experience, and the staff was great. The submarine was the highlight of the visit. One thing to improve: the aircraft are very old. It is time for some newer models
Tracy_C, Apr 2026
You climb 3 very steep ladders/stairs to get to the carrier control rooms; then you get out by going down one ladder BACKWARDS!
David_S, Mar 2026
Was very educational for me my husband was excited was his first time in New York city. Bring your children I regret not bringing my 7 year old son
Sandra_H, Feb 2026
Great place for someone with interest in military, American History or airplanes. It was kids week so there were a lot of extra activities for smaller children.
We made it through (sans kids week activities) the ship and submarine in about 3 hours. Due to the time of year and crappy weather (cold heavy rain) and no lines we didn't have to wait more than 5 mins for anything.
We will go back again as several family members mentioned interest when we got home. Its clear that better weather brings much much larger crowds and with it longer lines.

Great museum with lots of planes. We also got to visit during kids’ week and there were so many hands on activities which were fab.
Bruce_P, Jan 2026
You can spend many hours here.the exhibits are great. Concord jet although extra fee is a must see tour
Louise_C, Dec 2025
This trip was booked my my husband as seeing the spaceship was on his bucket list but he Theo roughly enjoyed the rest of the museum and we spent a good 3 hours there while he was exploring the rest of the museum.

Waited a few years to do this so really glad I have been now and definitely worth the wait. An amazing experience all round and very informative and interesting.
Siobhan_W, Nov 2025
I visited the Intrepid Museum yesterday with my husband. It’s an amazing experience to get to enter and learn about Concorde, Submarine Growler, see Space Shuttle Enterprise and see the hangers and the different aircraft on Intrepid.
Gio_D, Nov 2025
Our son had so much fun! And so did we! 💯 Recommend this to anyone with kids traveling to NY.

When can you say I have been on aircraft carrier, in a nuclear submarine, saw the Concorde and a space shuttle all in one tour ?!?
Jeffrey_M, Oct 2025
The G force experience was awesome. The staff was amazing. It's a very cool ship to see!!! Saw the space shuttle.

Great experience for all ages. Great value. Came here with my 21 and 19 year-old and we all loved it..
Lots to see and fun activities inside.
Ralph_H, Oct 2025
Excellent learning experience. The exhibits show the history of the carrier and provide information on operation of the carrier. The restoration and maintenance are outstanding.
Dawn_P, Oct 2025
Very interesting and informative. Learned about some history I had not perviously known. Impressed by the size of the intrepid.
Manuel_S, Sep 2025
It was great from the submarine to the ship and everything things else!!
It was pretty neat to see the inside how they lived!
Steven_L, Sep 2025
Amazing reminder of days gone by and a fitting memorial to those lost during its time in service.
Submarine museum was great too.
Heather_S, Sep 2025
We had a nice time. Lots of planes to see. And space shuttle was nice to see. Was neat to see the area where the planes would be stored and all the things they have down there.
Lynne_E, Aug 2025
Really enjoyed it ! A must see on a trip to NYC 🍎 Being able to go inside Growler was an amazing experience !
Lynette_P, Aug 2025
Timed tickets made for easy entry and less crowding. We spent a good 3 hrs here and didn't read everything about everything. We designed and a must if visiting NY
danielle_b, Aug 2025
See everything! Nothing is a waste of time, speak to the veterans, they have some remarkable stories and take plenty of pictures my 12 year old son was mesmerized by the aircraft carrier and submarine. Highly recommend and well worth the money
