  • Chose January to avoid crowds and it worked. What a magnificent ship. This time a year they only give a 1.5 hour tour for the day. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the ship...

  • Such an amazing place to visit we didn't get to finish the whole ship. But plan to go back for a guided tour. Did a self tour which is amazing among itself. Such great history and memories. You can see it in the eyes of all the older gentlemen who are their to answer questions and speak about the ship. We even got the amazing opportunity to watch them fire the 5 inch guns which was such a great experience and they are so concerned for the younger generation not being to close with it being loud but was amazing
  • Always wanted to go. Finally went! My friend and I took the main tour route. We saw a lot, but there is much more to see. I highly recommend a curators tour. It is pricey, but I figure it'll be well worth the experience. All the museum staff was knowledgeable and very friendly. Can't wait to go again.
  • Absolutely great experience! Many different routes allow you to see a lot and separate people. This means that it is never really overcrowded. One can easily spend 4 hours on the ship and so much is open to the public. Of course so parts are closed for renovation and what not.
  • We had a wonderful self-guided tour of the Battleship New Jersey today and a guided tour of the engine and ammunition areas. The staff was very helpful and friendly! There was no crowd at all (taking the tour) besides us 2, so we basically had the ship to ourselves. We spent about 2-1/2 hours exploring it at an up-tempo pace, but easily could have spent another hour exploring - if we had allowed ourselves more time between destinations. I highly recommend visiting the Battleship New Jersey if ever you're in the Camden, NJ area. Thank you!
  • Best part of the trip! It took me hours to go through the whole thing! Filled with so much history, for 25$ it’s definitely worth the visit. It’s a bit hard to navigate but they have Red,Blue, and Yellow lines guiding you through the whole place, if you love history you are sure to love this!
