Staying overnight on BB64 is a MUST
We did a family group overnight on the Battleship Wisconsin. It was absolutely AWESOME. No pictures, books, or lectures can compare with an overnight experience to really learn about the nuances of living on a battleship and appreciate the history represented by this great ship. We got to investigate nearly every nook and cranny of this magnificent ship and learn her story from an expert with 30 years of naval experience. Greg and Tammie were fantastic. The cost for a family group of three people is quite reasonable when you take into consideration that the overnight includes free admission to the Nauticus museum, free personalized tours of the entire battleship, free breakfast as well as authentic overnight accommodations. This compares quite favorably to the cost for a family of a night at any hotel on the boardwalk in Virginia Beach. Anyone visiting Virginia Beach should include this in your itinerary for a memory that your child/grandchild will never forget!

Amazing tour of the Uss Wisconsin
We had an awesome time at the Uss Wisconsin and the Nauticus museum. Dave Woods, call sign Frog gave us a great tour of the communications and lower decks with all the technology, it was super fascinating. Dave is sooo knowledgeable after all his years on Navy ships and his war experiences. Really an amazing, informative tour, we couldn't have asked for a better guide! Would highly recommend for a war, war ship, weapons, communication, or military enthusiast - or a new experience. Thanks Dave for sharing your knowledge and experiences!
