Although I did not take an excusion, I did walk around downtown Norfolk...and visited the small but well done Navy Museum in the Nautacus building next to the ship. Intereswtingly...and importantly...the museum's Civil War section spotlighted both the USA and CSA actions in the area, inclduign the the Monitor and Virginia clash. From our starboard balconly I had a great view of the USS Wisconsin; I had recently toured the USS IOWA so did not go on board. I was fascinated by the view of the port from the stern as we backed in. Read Less

We went to the Chrysler Museum and the USS Wisconsin. Both were very interesting and I was pleased with the variety of exhibits at the Chrysler. Read Less

enjoyed the port from our balcony, walked around later in the day Read Less

As I covered in my earlier review the parking was severely understaffed and the entire process seemed very chaotic and disorganized. Read Less

Norfolk was a breeze Read Less

We are locals so we didn't do anything special here. This terminal is small and our embarkation was during the Wine Festival at nearby Town Point Park in Downtown so traffic was crazy. We took an Uber so we didn't have to pay to park our car. It worked out great. Read Less

Got dropped off at pier by a friend and basically walked into the terminal thru security. Got our cards and walked right onto the ship. Read Less

Great embarkation and debarkation Read Less

Norfolk can improve the embarkation procedures to speed things up, but as a part time port, they did a good job. Read Less

The thing that made this a great port is that I had the opportunity to see my three great grand children for the first time. Read Less

Since we waited in the immigration line for 1.5 hrs after arriving 3.5 hrs late, the first day was shot. I wanted to tour the museum next to us but it closed at 5 and I got thru immigration 5 minutes after it closed. The second day, we walked thruout the historical district and I toured the USS Wisconsin battleship which is docked right next to us. The town is very tourist friendly..very clean, easy to move about... Read Less

This was a closed-loop Trip. Read Less

Embarkation only; I couldn't save the review if I selected 0 ports. Read Less

Since the dock are right next to the oldest part of Norfolk, we took the self guided "Cannonball" walk. Lots of history and interesting sights along the way. Read Less

The port is easy to walk around. Just go off the ship and go to the Nauticus that is right by the dock. You can sign up for an in-depth tour of the Battleship Wisconsin, or just do the museum which is fantastic. It also includes your own tour of the battleship. There is also a Starbucks down the street with free Internet. Read Less

We walked the city on a quiet Sunday morning. Saw Douglas Arthur Memorial & Statue, St. Paul's Church & stuck cannonball, by the Naval Base & Battleship Wisconsin, & Nauticus Submarine, Mose Meyer House & historic Old Freemason District. Then back to the Dawn. Read Less

Norfolk was a very good port. The ship passes by the naval base and my husband enjoyed seeing all the ships as we sailed into port. Norfolk has so much history, I don't think you could go wrong with any excursion. We went to Williamsburg and found it to be very educational. Read Less
