All of the staff were extremely knowledgeable and the volunteers as well. I attended as chaperone with my son's school group and I would highly recommend this trip to other school-age groups. We boarded a recreation of the Kalmar Nyckel, sailed inland a ways on the Christina River, then sailed back to dock. The museum had several activities for the kids to participate in, including mock loading/firing a cannon and designing a "ship" to see who could hold the most metal nuts before sinking. One group took the record at 39!! It was also fascinating to hear the history told by the blacksmith. I would definitely go again!

Delaware's tall ship. Went for a sale on the Christiana River. Real fun.

Excellent fishing spot!! Check me out on YouTube, tiktok and insta!!! Fishing 4 Greatness.

We had an Amazing Time!
First seen on PBS - A Taste of History.

The grounds surrounding the museum are beautiful right on the water.
The tall ship actually sails.
A great day trip.
We attended the Halloween Ghost Ship event. Pumpkin painting 🖼️, blacksmith workshop, craft making, toy boat building, tour of the tall ship 🚢 and a self guided museum tour.

The museum is very informative with some hands on items. The sail is absolutely fantastic! The entire crew’s goal is to make sure everyone has a terrific time, safely. They’re extremely helpful, informative, knowledgeable, professional, and extremely friendly. I would absolutely do this again any time. Highly worthwhile. Very glad that we did it!
