The audio tour on the Queen Mary ship in Long Beach California is a perfect way to spend a few hours catching up on your history. This tour can take 1 or 2 hours, taking you all over the RMS Queen Mary, built in the 1930's. The ship is currently a hotel and hosts a number of exhibits and functions. The audio tour allows you to go at your own pace around the ship. You get to visit many areas, like the Bridge (where captains steer the ship), Radio Room, Captains Quarters, and so much more. Another fun spot was a look down the ships 'endless hallway', which looks like it could go on forever. At the end, you visit the Propeller Room, which is a small room built outside of the Queen Mary. It allows you to see one of the ships 4 propellers up close.
I would recommend this tour to anyone who is looking to visit the permanently docked ship. At times, the audio guide can get confusing, but they have such good employees, they will be happy to help where they can. Out of 10, I would rate the tour a 10.
