Captain's Tour Aboard the USS Yorktown
History Tours
Exclusive Access and Insights to the Ship and Crew
Walk in the steps of heroes by getting a behind the scenes tour of the Yorktown featuring exclusive access to areas of the ship not normally accessible to the general public. Step into an original B-25 Mitchell Bomber which was the same model of aircraft used by Doolittle’s Raiders in their attack of mainland Japan. Take a look at the day in the life of a sailor aboard the Yorktown and gain a true understanding of why it is referred to as a floating city. Discover the original Captain’s Quarters and hear about the men who commanded such titanic vessels including the Yorktown’s first Captain, Adm. Joseph J. Clark. Explore the anchor room or forecastle of the Yorktown and see the inner workings of the ship. Examine some of the mighty aircraft that flew off the deck of the Yorktown while in service while enjoying a beautiful view of Charleston's harbor.
