Its a cute little seaport town. Plenty of parking, variety of museums and shops, plenty to see but may be boring for young children. The food was very "touristy" fried everything, but the fudge at the bakery was awesome. Got to go on the ships/boats and explore which was really neat. Paid for the pass to go to the aquarium...

I have always loved this place. It's been over five years since I was there last and was glad I finally had the chance to go back. It was a nice sunny day but quite cold. It was actually fun to imagine that you were back in time just walking around going in the buildings and seeing what things cost... More

From colonial houses to old sailing vessels, this is a great one day stop. Interesting museum and old time caraft shops. A step back into history.

We visited on a Lovely Sunny Monday and practically had the entire place to ourselves. We spent about 3 hours just slowly walking through the exhibits and buildings.

This place is overrated. Yes it's nice but it's so commercialised. It was so busy can't imagine what it's like in summer. We only stayed 1hour then drove 5 miles up the the road to Stonnington which was far superior smaller and classier.

The highlight of the trip was definitely the planetarium. The gentleman running the show was wonderful and very good with the kids. The conditions on the ship were as expected except... More

My family and I have visited Mystic Seaport numerous times over the past twenty years. We went with the children when they were pre-teens, and have gone back on a number of occasions with one or more of our children and their partners since they have been adults. I always admire the view of the Seaport from the observation deck... More

We're members of Mystic Seaport and love to support this place. We were going to take some time off, but were given a good deal to renew our membership and took it. So, it spurred us to make a weekend trip to Mystic, which included a visit to the Seaport. Our kids love all they have for kids. We like... More

I came back after 40 years and liked it again this time. One can spend time on different things and the place is well care for and was ready for the sum. This is a valuable American site. They are ready for the sommer season. I will take my grandchildren if I have any.Greetings from Switzerland.
