Great place to learn about the maritime life in Philly. There's a short film not to be missed, esp. if a first-time visitor. Ticket includes a visit to the war ship Olympia, and the submarine Becuna, docked just behind the museum. There's also a workshop where you see people building a boat.

Visited this place years ago and recently revisited with my kids. Its just not a spectacular place yet the prices are obscene. May be good for stealing money from the local schools that participate throughout the year but for the tourists that visit they don't get what they think based on what they pay.

I'm a native Philadelphian living in NJ...have walked past this numerous times, but it is so non-descript looking from the outside never had much desire to visit.

The Seaport Museum is a wonderful place to visit to learn abput the history of the Delaware River and how it affected the nation. The Dewaey Flagship and the submarine are great and interesting attractions

The seaport is an ok and fun museum but the skating rink outside is a better place to go and look at the city and have som outdoor fun. I would say it is only going to be open another month as spring is coming soon

Interesting place for Philadelphia water history. This is definitely not a venue for very young children

We went here on a school field trip! Going inside the boat is very interesting! And the tour guide was very informative. There is also a submarine and that was very neat seeing the inside of a sub. The museum itself on the inside is ok; not the most hands on.

This museum chronicals accidents that have happened on the Delaware River. There is a good section on the War of 1812 and the U.S.S. Olympia, which can be toured, and is worth the time. There is also a submarine and a sailing ship that can be toured. The museum has on-site boat building and it was fascinating to talk to... More
