Great tour of the boat and sub! Thoroughly enjoyed it.
I like to give where others have given their time and thoughts
Interesting displays and some really cool historic ships.
The Independence Seaport Museum has lots of fun things to see and do and it's right on Penn's Landing overlooking the Delaware River! A great destination for both locals and tourists!
Because Independence Seaport Museum has the biggest toys in town -- the USS Olympia, Admiral Dewey's flagship in the Spanish-American War and the oldest floating steel warship in the world, and the World War II submarine, the USS Becuna!
