Intrepid Museum
Intrepid Museum will host free public viewing parties for more than 50 World Cup matches on Pier 86, providing a dramatic and unique setting to cheer on your favorite team. Multiple large screens will be set up throughout the Pier, with food, beverages, and merchandise available for purchase. Please note, while the viewings on the pier are free, tickets are still required for admission into the museum. See the Intrepid Air Craft Carrier, the Space Shuttle Pavilion, the Growler Submarine, plus watch an 8-minute film entitled 'the Story of Intrepid' and a 15-minute film called 'Kamikaze: Day of Darkness, Day of Light.' Launched in 1943, the former aircraft carrier USS Intrepid fought in World War II, surviving five kamikaze attacks and one torpedo strike. The ship later served in the Cold War and the Vietnam War. Intrepid also served as a NASA recovery vessel in the 1960s. It was decommissioned in 1974, and today is berthed on the Hudson River as the centerpiece of the museum.

Exceeded My Expectations — So Much to See
The Intrepid Museum completely exceeded my expectations. We were able to get tickets through Culture Pass from the New York Public Library, which made an already great experience even better. There is an incredible amount to see here. The flight deck is packed with different aircraft, and seeing a Concorde supersonic jet up close was a definite highlight. The exhibits throughout the museum are excellent, including an interactive video experience with immersive elements that was really well done. Being on the Intrepid itself is fascinating, and you also get some fantastic views of the New York City skyline from the deck. There are good cafes inside as well, so it’s easy to spend several hours exploring without needing to leave. I could have spent much more time here. Lots to see, lots to do, and far more interesting and extensive than I expected. A really fun day and definitely worth visiting.

A fantastic unique experience
This was a brilliant experience. How often do you get to step foot on a WW2 aircraft carrier? This history of the ship was probably more interesting than the aircraft on display, but that’s no criticism. Looking around the inner workings of the ship was fascinating and eating on board was decent value (for America) and my hot dog was okay. This is well worth a visit.

A good day
The size of the aircraft carrier was huge with so much to explore. For anyone who is interested in the sea and planes, this is a good visit to do.

Seeing the exhibits at...
Seeing the exhibits at the Intrepid Museum was one of the highlights of my trip to New York. Having staff that actually served on the Intrepid that you could talk with added to the experience. Some of the exhibits you need to go to first as they may have long queues or need a booking. Visit the submarine and the concord first. My only negative was that some of the staff manning the entrance to some exhibits were quite rude. I understand they need to manage a lot of people but a please and thank-you goes a long way.

Pleasant hour spent
Was ok. Nothing else really. Bit underwhelming and staff not very friendly and very pricey. I like planes but was a bit bored if I’m honest. Very nice aircraft ship. Space shuttle was ok.

Why this scores 78
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Intrepid Museum Admission Ticket: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New York.
How much does Intrepid Museum Admission Ticket cost?
+
Prices start at $28 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in New York usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Intrepid Museum Admission Ticket take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in New York is not rushed.
Is Intrepid Museum Admission Ticket worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 1,072 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in New York, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Intrepid Museum Admission Ticket?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Intrepid Museum Admission Ticket suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Intrepid Museum Admission Ticket?
+
Around 375 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in New York can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in New York and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Intrepid Museum Admission Ticket start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central New York within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in New York?
+
New York has more bookable experiences than any other city on Outty, and the quality spread is brutal. Observation decks are commoditised, so we score them on timed-entry reliability and sunset slots. Food tours and borough walks are where the ranking really separates operators, and the top scores in the city all come from small-group guides. On Outty we rank every New York experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Grand Canyon VIP Helicopter Tour, Half-Day Bus Tour of NYC Top Highlights, NYC Bus Tour of Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens: Art, Food & Sports. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit New York?
+
September to early November, and late April through June. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in New York?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
