What an amazing and beautiful museum with new exhibits coming soon! The structure itself is just a…read morelovely design, and having grown up going to the Gulf every weekend and sailing and seeing the amazing cargo ships, sailboats, and larger ships, this was a delightful experience when passing through Mobile. There are many little factual exhibits on the structure with a lot of interactive experiences. You can navigate (and crash or sink) your ship, feel the Crow's Nest experience, learn about the people who really first landed in Mobile, learn about those fascinating cargo ships going in and out of the port as you watch them, and also learn about the wildlife encountered at sea. Even as an adult, I appreciated the experience. This was a very different sort of museum, not huge, but you could certainly spend some time there.

What an amazing museum! I kind of have a fear of deep water, but this is simply about…read moretransportation, water routes and how things have changed over time. The building shape is interesting, like a shape of a ship, and the interior is just amazing. It is unique to see how shipping has changed over time, evolved. I spent several hours here exploring. I like on their social media pages how they highlight POC and women in this industry. It seems to be ever changing and evolving.

We found this place almost by accident while looking for something to do on a rainy afternoon, and…read moreI'm so glad we did. My two kids are different ages, so it's usually hard to find somewhere they both enjoy, but they were both entertained the entire time. I actually had to convince them it was time to leave. The place was clean, the staff was welcoming, and the overall atmosphere felt relaxed. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in the area.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. not only was the desk staff completely inept (and wearing headphones the…read moreentire time?) and off-putting but i had to ask repeated questions on how to do XYZ after telling them i'd never been here. asking where things were, how to order food, anything. HORRIBLE first impression. second, the place was weirdly empty but dirty? the STEM section was destroyed, rocks from the rock pit everywhere, balls from the ball pit everywhere. no staff picking anything up to make the presentation / functionality better for the kids as they come. so if you're not the first of the day, you're coming in to a destroyed place. extremely overpriced for toddlers under 2. there is not much for them to play with at all. the fact that i spent over $60 for one toddler to walk around this dirty place and eat some arcade food was really, really, really disappointing. i will never recommend this place nor be back. edited to add: the staff person, a tall guy, brought our food out and was very nice. he was the only staff member that even acknowledged my daughter.

Extremely unprofessional management. My teenager went to an open interview, and the manager started…read morethe interview but left mid-conversation, saying "excuse me." She was gone for about 15 minutes, came back to resume, and then left again after just two minutes to handle other tasks. This repeated a third time--with each absence getting longer--and the final time, she never returned at all. My child was left sitting there for two hours. I honestly thought she had been hired and was already in orientation. That's how long she was kept waiting without any communication. Completely unacceptable.

We were close enough to make it here to have a cruise. I was excited that the cruise provided us…read morethe closest view of the SS United States. Being able to get this close before it became the world's largest artificial reef was the highlight of the cruise. Friendly staff and a full bar with snacks only enhanced our trip. Kinda difficult to navigate getting back to the highway, but don't let that deter you from enjoying an hour on the river

I went on the murder mystery dinner cruise with my mom and aunt and we had a blast! It truly…read morestarted before you even step foot on board. The experience was sooo immersive. Someone even ended up choosing my mom as a prime suspect! I like that it's not scripted so you can go again and it be a different experience every time. The ambiance downstairs in the boat was nice. The food was also great. There were simple salads on the table when we sat down. Later in the evening they brought out the main course- shrimp skewers, rice, green beans, a roll, and chicken with a delicious sauce. For dessert we had a berry pie with whipped cream. All of the food was good. The service was impeccable. Our servers made sure to refill our glasses of wine with a sizable pour. We loved this experience and would love to come back again!

They had a number of activities for my 13 and 11 year old grandkids . They thoroughly enjoyed it.read more

I booked my daughter's MVP birthday party room to take place on August 1, 2026 @ 1:30 pm. I arrived…read moreat the location at 1:00pm with my party and was told that the party room was given away to another party and now my daughters party have to take place in the main party area amongst people we did not know. Then they tried to charge me the full price of the MVP party room to the point I had to go back and forth with them to be charged for a table and not a room. My daughter's birthday was ruined and no one offered anything. Taye (the fake manger) was also our party host, and he did not take some of the price off for them giving our room away. No one every came back to even help with siging happy birthday. They passed us some old, dry pizza and sent us on our way. We never seen anyone again until we were leaving. They told me that we would have to wait until the party in the party room ended (it had just started) and then we could use it or just use the public party area. My child was humiliated and sad because she had to share a special day with strangers starting in her face. No one ever offered to accommodate their mess up and basically said there is nothing they can do at that point. It was a horrible experience for our family and party guest.

The good: They hosted a large conference pretty flawlessly. Equipment worked in every room, and if…read morethere was an issue, they worked to fix it. Kept us well fed and didn't let dirty dishes sit for long. The okay: Took some time to respond to things - our room didn't have its own light switches, and guests can't dim their own lights anyway. So we waited for them to turn off lights from the (divided by a panel) room next door. Dessert was out by 10 AM the first day instead of 3 PM, so we all stuffed ourselves with cookies. And took some time to find the bathrooms. The bad: I wouldn't say anything bad. Better than our standard conference venue and several of our alternates, I'd say. As long as you can find the bathroom.

The event I attended was well represented on a banner flying high for passersby to clearly see from the interstate. The location needs to give immediate attention to adequate parking as that quickly became a nightmare for those in attendance.
