What’s more fun than a haunted ship—not much!

Published on Jan, 2025

This was the most unusual and fun tour I’ve ever been on. It was a freezing cold night but comfortable inside the ship. So cool to see and feel one of these marvels of engineering. The ghost stories were fun and interesting and our tour guide was great. I get very seasick and was concerned but our guide told us the ship is moored in 6 feet of mud, it does not move (except a little during hurricanes he told us). Did not see any ghosts but had a great time freaking myself and family out, took a million funny Blair Witch style videos, was a hoot!

Highly recommended

We have visited the USS Yorktown on a couple of other occasions, but this tour was super fun and informative. Tad was a fantastic tour guide he gave us just enough humor mixed with the paranormal and historical information about the ship to keep things fun and interesting. The nighttime view from the flight deck was worth the price of admission. I highly recommend this tour!!

Great date night

Thad was an excellent tour guide! The history of the ship had just enough implications to give you goosebumps but not enough to make it cheesy! Great nighttime views of the bridge from the flight deck! Loved the tour

Floating history in Charleston Harbour

Published on Jan, 2025

The Yorktown was our number 4 aircraft Carrier Museum, along with the Hornet, Lexington, and Midway. All about the same except for the history. My wife is a aviation buff so exploring history is a little more fun. They do have areas that people with a disability can still enjoy but many are up passage ways, and separated by knee knockers, and if not paying attention to where your walking you'll learn why its called that. Now they do have a nice snack bar to rest and have a snack and beverage. plenty of videos of the ship's history and other ships that also used its name. You can go up on the flight deck, down to the chain room, sick bay, also the birthing compartments. On land they have the Viet Nam history building and equipment outside

Great time for our family!
