If you’re into warships or naval history, this place is an absolute must! The ship is impressive and full of fascinating details. It’s a great experience if you’ve got about an hour and a half to two hours to explore

We did the crew tour which was well worth the price. Very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. Highly recommend. Our two teenagers were engaged the entire time. Be aware, there are a lot of stairs/ladders to climb on the tour.

If you like historical military hardware, you've got to see the USS Iowa in California. The self-guided tour is very informative, with lots of information to read about the ship, its weapons, and its crew.

My wife and I took our special-needs son to see the Iowa. Really enjoyed the visit. Son is in wheelchair most of time but can walk with help. Staff very helpful and we were able to see most areas of the ship. Father was in the Navy at very end of WWII. Had been meaning to visit the Iowa for a long time. Very happy we did. It's a glimpse into different times of our history.

I went from LAX to USS Iowa by public transportations. The staffs are friendly and eager to help you. This battleship has many great history. I recommend you to visit there if you have any convenience chance.

Beautiful ship. You can do a self-guided tour by following the arrows. It's nice to see the ship and it's still in good condition.

What an amazing way to witness history. I was able to stwp foot where my father once served this country. I hope everyone takes the opportunity to go see the ship in person

The ship tour was awesome. The crew on the ship are helpful and nice. My sister and I were able to see an actual battle ship in person. Actually seeing a battle ship on tv or a movie doesn’t compare to seeing one in person. There is a diner called, “Vicky cafe”, didn’t get a chance to visit. Now I have another reason to come back. I would recommend this tour.
