I had lots of fun with my sister and her fiance, the workers are very nice and respectful.

I really liked this submarine tour. this is definitely one of the best highlights of the science museum. Its part of general mission, or pay $7 if you just want to visit the submarine. I have never been inside a submarine, so it was fascinating to see and learn how people live in a submarine.

The sights from the rivers edge are stunning as is, but to be inside a real life submarine was breathtaking.Totally worth it, and to be included with the ticket price theres no reason to not take a look.The staff was very friendly and gave us plenty of time to look around and taught us alot.

I cant give an honest rating because I havent actually visited the location yet.

This 1940s submarine is truly magnificent! You can feel the claustrophobia the crew once felt inside the submarine, but there is air conditioning inside. Clothes of the crew appear to be left behind. It gives you the eerie feeling of the souls inside the submarine. Also, based on the pictures, the submarine is in excellent condition. There is even a freaking 21.5ft torpedo still positioned at the bow of the submarine! Please check the submarine out! It is included with the general admission tickets! Bon voyage!

Was awesome to be able to walk through this submarine and see what the environment is like. Very knowledgeable, friendly staff!

Great tour but a bit short and if werent in the back we wouldnt have gotten the verbal part of the tour.

An awesome place to bring young people interested in touching and feeling history

Amazing experience to actually go inside and see a submarine! Highly recommended it.

You can buy tickets for visiting only the submarine without the science museum (in the museum).Its always nice to visit a submarine, very interesting!

Vintage piece of beloved and well-preserved US naval history. This is a great place to bring kids. Their natural curiosity will have them asking all kinds of questions. Pro tip, Requin means “shark” in French. Some of the tour guides might quiz you. It can get crowded on the sub which does lessen the joy of the experience. It’s best to visit when crowds are small at the Science Center. They might consider creating an entry system to limit the number of visitors on the sub at any one time. This would allow visitors to see the sub at a less hectic and rushed paced.

Amazing!!! Never saw a Submarine from inside and after seeing it i have even more respect for the Navy soldiers who have the courage and guts to stay in it for days.

If youre into ships, Navy or submarines, this is must go place. She is floating on the river - amazing for a ship that was built in 1945. She is the main attraction, but there is a small exhibition trying to recreate the life of the crew of 81 on a mission. Surely not much space! Take time to put yourself to the shoes of the crew, under water, silent, raking from depth charges. These men were made of iron and their nerves of steel.

This is so cool! We all loved going here

Excellent interior restoration. Priced to visit. A must see

Smaller than I thought it would be, but very interesting little stop. Was used in the Cold War for a while so theres some history to learn from the visit.

Nice place to take the kids. However! My dad did hit the sub a few years ago because of its Horrible placement compared to the river entrance .

It is closed like everything else

Well worth visiting if youre in the area. The museum does a great job of keeping the Requin preserved, and making the visit a learning experience.

A very cool historic sub. You get to see the inside of WWII diesel/electric submarine. Learn how 80 men lived out at sea and what jobs they had.

Fascinating self-guided tour. Very close quarters, and not suitable for those with mobility limitations.

Sooooo cool! I cant believe that this was built in 1945 and saw battle; and its suprisingly not as claustrophobic as I thought it would be

Super cool diesel electric sub! Easy walk through. Can buy tickets for the sub alone or included in admission to the science center.

The USS Requin is a tench class diesel electric submarine. Like most seafaring vessels its a tight fit through the hatches, but its really cool inside. If you have serious mobility issues or are very overweight youll have a tough time getting from compartment to compartment, but its really worth the squeeze to see inside. Its a self guided walkthrough, so you can take all the time you want reading the signs and information plaques inside. There are a few compartments that you cant enter without being on the guide led tour though, like the conning tower and the sonar room

We did not know it was there and it was a wonderful surprise!

Awesome visit. The Science center was great but most of the exbihits seemed to be geared more to early amd preteen compared to its peers like COSI in columbus. The sub was Outstanding! Well kept, good tour, the guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. A must see!

An amazing experience for my son, he loved it

Such an amazing sight to see and explore. Gives everyone a greater appreciation for our military past and present.

I would have liked someone there to tell us how all the letters and buttons worked. But overall a cool tour.

Great exhibit of a WW II era submarine. Got a better appreciation of the difficulties to live on-board a naval warship.

I got to explore the submarine and learn its history; on the surface, it can reach a speed of 21 knots, it can carry 80 people, and it can stay submerged for 72 hours, but it needs to be on the surface to recharge its batteries.

Included in the basic price also the sports complex next to the science center bld free. Got to do the air course (harness system) held a plus size woman no problem. I did the zipline 2 times and 8 different types of obstacles in the 20 min alotted. The passage ways on the sub was challenging but one foot going sideways at a time managed to get through remember to duck.

Hidden submarine behind the science museum. Worth it for just the trip alone. Unusual to see an early Cold War sub. Very well restored and presented. Watch your head on the very small hatches

The USD Requin was an amazing experience. I have nothing but respect for any sailors who have served on a submarine!

Worth a visit.admission is included with science center

Very interesting with super helpful and knowledgeable staff. Tight spaces(obviously) but easily navigable.

Good experience walking through a piece of history. I never knew that submarines were so tight inside.

Cool piece of world war II

Amazing place to be. You can almost feel what is to be livong in a USS and the limitations of all that. Definetely a must in Pitsburgh

I was stunned to see how well they have maintained this submarine for the last 28 years...it was a great experience to go inside and experience how marines used to live inside that human engineered shark for days...old amplifiers, transmitters, engines, motors...amazing...!It is a must on your to do list!

I was actually named after this submarine! So I hope one day I can visit it! My mom saw it on a barge going down the Ohio river and decided if she ever had a daughter she would name it Requinn. One day soon I will visit and learn more about its story!

Amazing thing to go and see! A must if in Pittsburgh!

Great to take kids and family

I loved the tour, fun and educational

My father was a cook on this sub. What a treat to visit.

If you visit the science center, be sure to take a tour of the submarine. Its a fascinating glimpse into what seaman had to endure living underwater. Theres a ton to see and do and every time Ive taken the tour Ive discovered some neat new thing.

Had a great time at the Science Center!!! It was an amazing experience to tour the Requin!!!

A nice experience in Pittsburgh

Got a chance to peep into a submarine, rare experience

Pretty awesome way to see history

A definite must see

A must see for any military aficionado. The USS Requin is a floating time capsule of its day. The staff is very friendly and they are happy to answer questions.

We love history and this was a great experience for our family.

Humbling to think men served on these things!

Its awesome

Incredible! Dont miss ir

Awesome exhibit. How many times have you been able to tour a submarine?

It was really nice to see how the men worked and lived in tight quarters. To serve our country .

A must see if you visit the Carnegie Science Center. It is fascinating to be inside the tight quarters of a submarine.

Cool submarine, rather small...

Great experience

Really interesting at first, but that wears off in about 10 minutes, then you just look for the exit. Difficult to navigate with crowds as they make movement around the submarine very uncomfortable and cramped.

Great experienceMinor note for google the submarine closes at 4:30

Interesting museum

What a wonderful place for children to view an important piece of history.

This was a great tour and part of the Science Center.

Fascinating time capsule!

Very awesome

Best place Ive been to
