NYC Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum with Skip-the-Line Tickets

If you are passionate about the history of the United States and want to see first-hand some of the elements that are part of it, you have to visit the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum.

This museum anchored on the Hudson River has become a must-see for young and old alike since its opening in 1982. The legendary aircraft carrier Intrepid serves as the base for this educational museum complete with a large collection.

Strolling around the carrier that fought in two major wars, you'll walk alongside some of the greatest fighter planes in history. Fully restored, an F16, a MIG-21 or the famous Blackbird spy plane perch on the deck of the Intrepid.

The entrance ticket also gives you access to the Glowler submarine, the only diesel-powered submarine with strategic missiles that can be visited in the whole country. You'll get a firsthand look at what life was like inside these places, even visiting the torpedo rooms.

Another highlight of the museum is the Concorde, the fastest commercial airliner in history capable of breaking the sound barrier (a tour of the interior is not included in the ticket price).

In addition, at the rear of the aircraft carrier you can visit the space shuttle Enterprise. The world's first spacecraft is housed in a pavilion where you'll also see a Soyuz spacecraft and a space shuttle exhibit.
