Absolutely fantastic! I stopped in on a whim, though going and visiting old battleships is a hobby of mine. We got a guided tour, which normally I shy away from, but our tour was fantastic! The tour guide was very knowledgeable, had served in the Coast Guard himself, and told us both the standard tour bits, but also tailored the tour to our group. He Taylor The Experience based on how long we wanted to be there, which was a bit longer than normal, as we were a group of veterans who were very interested in the history of the ship. It was a personal enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend this for families, school trips, or any navy veteran just wanting to reconnect. The ship is well-maintained, and is a great piece of History sitting in the middle of downtown Albany.

Took my dubious 10 year old daughter who ended up enjoying the tour of this WWII destroyer/escort ship. I myself was enthralled. Our tour guide, Art, was very knowledgeable and really made the history come alive. It's amazing to realize that young American men took this very ship into harm's way in defense of our country back in the 1940's.

A fascinating, restored piece of American military history that is definitely worth seeing. The guides are knowledgeable and friendly. I would suggest trying to get in a smaller group with few children if possible in order to have the best experience. (My group was too large and the kids ruled the roost.) Overall, surely worth a visit.

This is a fun little stop if you are a history buff. Be forewarned that if you are not physically able to climb up and down ladders this place is not for you. You get a wonderful tour of above and below deck all well getting the history of each cabin and room made to look like how it looked when it was occupied.
