Queen Mary is a must when you are in California. This is more than a fantasy for ship buffs, this ship is a movie star, a war hero and a historical landmark.

All HOUSE OF ISRAEL TOGETHER MOSES AND ARRONS FAMILY AFTER 300 YEARS GREAT BRITAIN AND 3.000 NAKED YEARS AFRICA. 200 YEARS LATER WHOLE HOUSE OF ISRAEL TOOK QUEEN MARY SHIP TO AMERICA. .. THAT IS A FACT . BLM'S AIN'T GOT SHIT ON THEM
In 2011 my wife and I rode our motor cycle out to see the Queen Mary. We took 2 of those guided tours, had a lunch in one of the cafes, then took the tour of the Marine park, like Sea world. By your that time it was 3pm & I hadn't even toured the ship yet, so I asked the wife, do you want to spend the night? She looked at me with big eyes, are you serious? Yep!! So we got a 2 port hole starboard side state room over looking the harbor. The wife took a nap, chronic fatigue syndrome, while I walked all over the ship. She called me when she woke up. I retrieved her & we went to a nice on board restaurant. The hostess asked if we had reservation's, ah no. Oops big mistake on my part, so she asked if I wanted to make one, well YA! OK, 9pm she says. Oh boy, it's only 6pm, so I took the wife to all of the places I'd looked at. We had a great meal @ 9pm. Then back to our room & to bed. This was Saturday, so Sunday morning we hear about this Sunday brunch in the first class dinning salon. I asked at the front desk. It was a little to pricey for me so I said we'd check out, to which the lady says, oh you stayed with us last night, then the brunch is half price, still a little steep but hey you only go around once, so we did it. Great vacation memories!!! I'd like to do it again someday.
I was a war baby born in England in 1945 to a Canadian soldier and his English bride. When they brought the soldiers home, Mom and I came over to Canada in August 1946 on the Queen Mary. I still have the immigration landing card at Halifax stamped the Queen Mary. I have visited the Queen Mary several times on visits to LA. It never fails to fascinate me. Too bad the promenade bar was closed as it was the best part of the ship.
@@crazycatlady4023 Presuming he arrived at Halifax, google Pier 21, which is where immigrants arrived. I did a tour of the place ten years ago and was told they kept all the records of arrivals, and one can access them.
Enjoyed my high school prom 1984, best ever. This ia a huge part of history we have here in Long Beach. Talk about stepping back in time. Great tour, thnx!
Great tour My Dad took my stepmother and surprised her when they went on a trip to California. They stayed on the ship and loved it. My stepmother said she had a dream that night about her late Dad who was serviced on the ship during the war. Very special. Thanks
My Grandfather made 42 wartime crossings of the Atlantic, in charge of taking taking troops over and bringing back the injured, dead, warbrides and mail, etc. Pretty sure he was on this ship.
So nice that this beautiful ship has been preserved. Sadly the last of the "titanic" trio megaships was destroyed in 1935. How amazing would it be, if it was saved to visit on an harbor somewhere in the world?
I like this ship because it sort of resembles the Titanic, and as someone who likes the Titanic this is a must see ship. Has very similar looks in the way it was built to Titanic, and how White Star Line ships were made
The first ocean liner ever and the very last ocean liner still exist . The SS Great Britain and the Queen Mary 2 . Also the Nomadic is another ship that has been preserved
I’ve done a couple visits to the QM, one in 1974 then again in 2006 and enjoyed them both. It’s interesting to compare the original with the QM2 which I’ve sailed on, on four occasions. I must admit the QM2 decor wise is much more pleasing on the eye, though there is lots of wood, it’s so much brighter and spacious, the cabins with their modern furnishings give you much more feeling of space, also helped by having balconies which give the rooms so much more natural light. It’s a bit like comparing chalk and cheese when touring both liners, but the grandure of the old Mary has a lovely feel about it, however when sailing across the pond I know which liner I’d prefer to be on, yep, the QM2.
I went there with my family 2 yrs ago. We took the haunted tour and saw the room that could be rented for a lot of money. It’s sad that the Queen Mary is closed due to Covid-19. I’m glad we got to go when we did.
I was aboard back in April 2016. Very nicely layed out inside and reliving history, to think all those dignitaries were aboard. I actually did the ghost tour which was interesting. I suppose you keep an open mind, but thought the food and service were exquisite. Would love to re'visit someday.
I wonder if the Olympic and Mauretania were scrapped because of the Great Depression. So many were sad to see them go, including President Roosevelt. I know the idea of preserving ships probably wasn't as prominent because they needed more and newer ones out of necessity. But I wonder if they were at all considered to be saved. Was that done at all back in the day when ships were the only way to cross?
Plans to turn the Olympic into a hotel in Southern France were proposed but fell through. There were many other ship hotels that didn’t last long either.
Great video!!!! This is my favorite tourist attraction!!!! I have been there many times when I lived in OC. It has been six years since I have been there last. So I am due to visit this famous ship again. During July and August, it is a beautiful place to watch the sunset. I have been on many tours as well. Thanks for letting me share.
We are staying there during the Great LA Air Raid event coming up. Also, one of our WWII vets sailed across the Atlantic on his way to Europe during WWII. He said it was very crowded. Can't wait to step back in time.

Excellent photography, great pan shots without making the viewer dizzy. The only thing better would be if you could have had access to the whole ship. Thanks.
What an interesting and well done tour you gave, even if brief! My late father was one of the American troops who rode “the gray ghost” to Europe during the Second World War, and I grew up hearing stories of his experiences while crossing on the Queen. Because of the vast number of soldiers crossing on each trip, the passengers were limited to staying in certain areas, to not upset the balance of the ship (failure to comply could result in time spent in the brig, or she ship’s jail!), so my dad would have enjoyed seeing this (and other) tours on TH-cam that exhibited the parts of the vessel that he had missed. At any rate, I have enjoyed seeing them on his (and on my own) behalf. Thank you for taking the time to make and post this, and I hope that you enjoyed your cruise! : )
@@danielledewitt1 When I said “enjoy your cruise” I was referring to the comment of the original sender that he had toured the Queen Mary prior to going on a cruise on another ship. I have long been aware that the QM no longer is operative, but is a tour site, and a piece of history.
Got chance over NYE 2019. Only stayed one night before heading to Catalina. Was great experience. Clean quiet room, loved the deco. Limited dining over holidays but still had grand time. Looking forward to going again. FYI inspoted to visit this website today while watching episode of Scorpion, they did show on board.
C.F. ,, GREAT WONDERFUL VIDEO!! I HAVE STAYED ON THE Q.M. MANY OF TIMES AND DIFFERNT ROOMS THE SHIP IS GRAND ,WE LOVE IT .. SO SAD THE SHIP IS CLOSED NOW !! AND THE CITY IS NOT TAKING IT SERIOUS.. BUT THE PEOPLE LIKE MY SELF ARE.. ALEX ,, PUTS OUT LOTS OF GREAT VIDEOS ON THE Q.M. ALSO,,..I REALLY ENJOYED THIS VIDEO VERY MUCH ,AND HOPING SHE WILL OPEN UP SOON IN 2023, LIKE THEY SAY BUT WILL OPEN FOR HALLOWEEN BUT NOT TO SLEEP, THE Q.M. IS NOT HAUNTED.THANK-YOU!!!
The last tie I was on her I was 9, just a few years after she docked in Long Beach. I'm planning a cross country Amtrak trip and am going to be staying for at least 3 days aboard her before flying back home. I'm hoping to do all of the tours and quite a bit of exploring on my own. I remember being in total awe as a kid with the Queen...
I have walked all over that ship many times over many years. It looks like they have added some things since I was last there. I would encourage people to just walk it yourself. Spend hours so allow all day.
It looks really unique and amazing beautiful basically the Titanic feel I'm going there August I just booked vacation for this and Los Angeles then going to drive 5 days later to San Francisco Sacramento area stay there for 5 days bringing the mavic 2 pro drone To get all types of epic shots especially Lake Tahoe I can't wait to stay here though
Went on this amazing ship during Christmas time of 2017 and it had a lot of paint work being done. Half of the ship was painted and the back wasn’t! Had a very fun time exploring the ship and idk why people say it’s haunted when I never got that feeling on the Queen Mary.
Old friend, passed last year, 95. He was taken to Canada to train as a pilot. He said after basic training and flying selection, they were told to board train to Scotland. Then to coast to board small boat. He said they didn't know where they were going. Soon though the small boat docked along side Queen Mary. He said he had never seen anything so big. Apparently the ship was too fast for U-Boats to catch up.
When I was on there I did a haunted tour and my 8 year old self was scared shitless. The only reason they have the hotel is so you can experience how haunted it is.
At 2017 I Went inside the Queen Mary and I saw a German-U-Boat I spent the night at the Queen Mary, Too!! WAIT I WENT THERE ON DECEMBER BEFORE CHRISTMAS!! When I woke up a part of the roof was Broken
4:26 there’s a wood panel there in some of the rooms that slides up to hide where the porthole is (they might be really dusty because apparently the hotel doesn’t know about em)
Beautifully done, very nice music, thank you! The "Royal Salon" would probably have been used as ball-room. The modern phones, hairdryers, ironing boards, and vending machines are a big no-no for such a well preserved historic space.
She is back in city hands now and closed for critical repairs that leasers did not take care of. We stayed on her in the 80s for two nights when Disney was managing her. Booked an original first class stateroom and enjoyed it so much we decided to book another night. The 2nd room we got was some sort of weird remodeled interior space. 95 degrees and no thermostat!! I went back to the desk, and after some friendly persuasion they gave us the Winston Churchill Suite! The Queen is a one of a kind treasure and we need to take better care of her or loose her forever.
If you get the chance, navigate your way down to the museum in the forward part of the ship after taking the Glory Days tour. The museum is in the former third class lounge, and the difference in ceiling height between classes is quite noticeable.
I saw the ship as a kid... July 4th. Night time. And it was kind of scary. Lol... this is the 80s. So the ship looked the same but different since it was so long ago. But I never knew it was haunted. Maybe that's why I was scared lol idk. It was just a huuuuuuuge ship. Overwhelming to me
My compliments to your videography and commentary which stayed on point and didn't needlessly meander. Like you, I, too, love history, and it's somewhat disappointing to see the 1930s art deco interior clashing with the generic modernity of a Starbucks shop. Interestingly, some scenes from the film _The Aviator,_ the Howard Hughes biopic directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, were filmed aboard the Queen Mary because it's one of the few places in Los Angeles that still has that classic 1930s vibe to it. Specifically, there was a scene filmed in the Observation Bar, and another filmed in the First Class Main Lounge.
I'm pretty sure there is a model of the Titanic there too, it had two grand staircases. One is only three decks towards the stern, and the six deck staircase between the first two funnels.
SS Normandie caught fire in NY while being converted to a Troup ship. She couldn't be saved so she was scrapped. Still today, The Normandie is considered the most beautiful liner ever built.
I'm right with you there! That's why staying on this ship was so captivating to me. I wish I could have stayed another couple days and really get a sense of what it must have been like to sail a vessel like this years ago.
In 1986 my high school senior prom was on the Queen Mary. Toured her twice with my parents in the late 70's. Great memories.
Was IT scary
lucky you
my stepmom died there
Yelli Orenz oh jeez sorry for your loss I know how it feels I lost my uncle 3 months ago

Thank you. Queen Mary is one of my favorite places on Earth. There’s nothing else like it. I’m planning on sailing in the QM2 in Summer of 2023.
At 8 months old I sailed to England on the Queen Mary from NY. Not telling my age now ! Wish I could have enjoyed the ride !
Ann Nunley how tf do you remember tho did they showed you pics?
Really old
You could be 54-84. That’s cool. I always wanted to ride on the Queen Mary when it was still sailing.
In which year?If you don't want to tell plz say before or after or during Second World War

Hi first of all I love this video. Second of all has the Promenade Cafe been renovated are you showing us a before-and-after shot?
Beautifully done, very nice music, thank you! The "Royal Salon" would probably have been used as ball-room. The modern phones, hairdryers, ironing boards, and vending machines are a big no-no for such a well preserved historic space.
@Railfan 765 Good to know! Greetings from Switzerland!
Thanks for sharing this tour. :)
She is back in city hands now and closed for critical repairs that leasers did not take care of. We stayed on her in the 80s for two nights when Disney was managing her. Booked an original first class stateroom and enjoyed it so much we decided to book another night. The 2nd room we got was some sort of weird remodeled interior space. 95 degrees and no thermostat!! I went back to the desk, and after some friendly persuasion they gave us the Winston Churchill Suite! The Queen is a one of a kind treasure and we need to take better care of her or loose her forever.
This is a great video, good job and thank you.
If you get the chance, navigate your way down to the museum in the forward part of the ship after taking the Glory Days tour. The museum is in the former third class lounge, and the difference in ceiling height between classes is quite noticeable.
I saw the ship as a kid... July 4th. Night time. And it was kind of scary. Lol... this is the 80s. So the ship looked the same but different since it was so long ago. But I never knew it was haunted. Maybe that's why I was scared lol idk. It was just a huuuuuuuge ship. Overwhelming to me
Thanks for sharing
My compliments to your videography and commentary which stayed on point and didn't needlessly meander. Like you, I, too, love history, and it's somewhat disappointing to see the 1930s art deco interior clashing with the generic modernity of a Starbucks shop.
Interestingly, some scenes from the film _The Aviator,_ the Howard Hughes biopic directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, were filmed aboard the Queen Mary because it's one of the few places in Los Angeles that still has that classic 1930s vibe to it. Specifically, there was a scene filmed in the Observation Bar, and another filmed in the First Class Main Lounge.
It is my favorite!! It looks like Titanic!!
I'm pretty sure there is a model of the Titanic there too, it had two grand staircases. One is only three decks towards the stern, and the six deck staircase between the first two funnels.
Yes the Titanic also had an Aft Grand staircase. Alot of people don't know that.
Yes, it’s was not as nice as the forwards staircase, and it did not feature “honer and glory crowning time”.
Spent our wedding night on the QM in '86, planning on returning for our 40th anniversary.
Great video thanks!
Great video.
At 6:49...I believe that is Queen Mary..... wife of George the V and grandmother to Elizabeth II.
SS Normandie caught fire in NY while being converted to a Troup ship. She couldn't be saved so she was scrapped. Still today, The Normandie is considered the most beautiful liner ever built.
best ship ever
I feel like the past is so intresting
I'm right with you there! That's why staying on this ship was so captivating to me. I wish I could have stayed another couple days and really get a sense of what it must have been like to sail a vessel like this years ago.
I stayed there for a few days in 2006.
It was definitely spooky.
I am sure they have done a bunch of renovations since then.
