We were visiting from Ohio and toured the ship with our neices and nephew in grades K, 3, & 6 who live in Carlsbad. It was wonderful to see them engaging in the exhibits and being excited about the scavenger hunt activity provided. Thay especially loved climbing inside some of the planes and flipping switches in the control rooms. Our group of seven utilized the audio headsets to varying degrees, which was an ideal way to receive as much history and information as each participant wanted. We loved that it was self-paced and that there were an abundance of opportunities to talk with actual retired servicemen who were knowledgeable about the ship. Great opportunity to learn about military history in an impactful way!

We visited the aircraft carrier with two children aged 3 and 7 in about 6 hours. Everything is well organized, the volunteers are friendly, and the route is well marked. You can see and imagine the life of the soldiers on board at every moment of their day and their duties. The children were most captivated by the planes on the launch deck, where you can climb on them, among other things. For Top Gun fans, don't miss the customary photo on the plane flown by Maverick and Goose. The parking lot next to the entrance is very convenient.

    The Safari Park was an incredible experience and made so easy with Headout! It was a breeze getting our tickets the day before we wanted to go and it couldn't have been easier. My partner and I had a memorable day that we will treasure forever! Thanks Headout!

    It was great visiting the Midway to view the actual carrier that a Boy Scout troop buddy flew from when he served in Desert Storm. He was an A-6 Intruder navigator/ordinance officer. Our kids liked it too!
