Full description
Take a self-guided audio tour onboard the world’s longest-serving aircraft carrier, the historic USS Midway. See the carrier’s 25 restored aircraft from the days of WWII to Operation Desert Storm. Visit areas throughout the Midway, from the crew's sleeping quarters to the pilots' ready rooms. Docents are available throughout the carrier and are eager to share their stories, anecdotes, and statistics, creating a picture of just how important the USS Midway was to the U.S. Navy. Most guests spend 3 to 4 hours exploring this historic aircraft carrier and learning its history. The included audio guide, available in 6 languages, will help you explore the dozens of highlighted areas across the massive ship.  There are family-oriented activities throughout the Museum. Included are 3 types of flight simulators, music videos, short films, climb-aboard aircraft and cockpits, and more. The Museum is located at the Navy Pier in downtown San Diego.

Very informative, well organized, enjoyed the entire experience. My husband is a veteran and the tour was a de ja vu. It brought back a lot of memories. As his wife I really enjoyed it as I never had the hands on experiences. It is a must for all to see.

We used getyourguide to purchase our USS Midway Museum tickets. Entry into the museum proceeded as desired. The museum was excellent. The displays provided a sense of what living and working on the Midway was like. The variety of aircraft was extensive. The best part though was the individual explaining how to land an aircraft on the deck of a Navy carrier. His talk was excellent and he should be commended.
