Incredible museum packed with experiences! - No matter the amount of time you have in NYC, your age or interests, this incredible museum of the most influential human, technological and innovative time capsules will engage and entertain all! Staff love what they do, everything is clearly signed, the internal, museum and museum-to-city skyline views are amazing! Outstanding work museum groups, staff and community! We walked from time square and found it fast and easy there and back 🙂

A must-visit - Truly amazing, I would go again. Just check your tickets as they do not include the submarine and the Concorde visit and especially the first has really long lines to get into. Cafeteria was rather expensive for the offer. Everything else was superb

Great. - Aircraft carrier very large and with a size that you are still stumped away from it. A crown jewel of the US Navy

Wonderful - A fantastic museum to visit to see the history of USS Intrepid - lots to see and do for all ages and very friendly guides to give further information the ship and its exhibits. The added bonus of getting up close and under a British Airways concord just adds to the occasion.

Worth a visit....allow plenty of time!! - We entered at 3pm and it closed at 5pm. We managed to get round most of it in this time, but it was a push. Lots to see, do and read. Even if you are not interested in boats, the navy or warships, it is still so fascinating! All the staff are friendly and helpful too There are extra attractions that you can pay for as well, we may have done these if we had more time

My husband was in the Air... - My husband was in the Air Force and he loved every minute of it. The submarine was buried delightful and everything else. A lot of displays. The food was also great.

Most Interesting Museum in NYC - I have not been to the Intrepid in nearly twenty years. Wow how has it changed, the entire experience was an exciting one for me and my guest who was visiting from out of town. We were amazed by all the things the cool things that were on the ship, the spaces shuttle, nuclear submarine as well as the inspiring stories that were told and its long history and association with major events in history. This is the most interesting museum in New York in my opinion, a must see!

Great experience - For those who like aviation and navy, visit to be done. Over 3.5 hours, a trip in time from this spectacular aircraft gate. The visit to the submarine eh also amazing with all the details very well preserved.

Not to be visited after 15:00 !! - Watch out for the afternoon time! We booked the visit at 16:00: the time to pass the controls, to access the upper deck and see the space shuttle that here the staff invites us to leave because the structure closes at 17:00 !!! With 45 minutes of useful time you can not visit a museum especially with two children.
