I did a ghost walk here about 15 yrs ago, some of which was filmed for a tv show. I went here to see for myself if ghosts truly existed, we had a great tour, saw the sights and as we got to the end of the tour, we all stood in the bowels of the ship, my own bowels gave way and i farted, a kind of muffled one as i tried desperately to hold it in. The leader of the tour had headphones on and shouted excitedly " I heard something! Let me play it back" As he did this his counterpart exclaimed " I saw something!" And preceded to run off down the length of the room. So ultimately, i had one guy listening to my fart over and over, playing it back, and his mate chasing my fart along the corridor. I concluded that i no longer believe in ghosts, and still to this day search for the footage.

My late Father worked on the Queen Mary in the late1940's into the early 1950's. I have loads of original memorabilia from the ship which was passed on to me. A true ocean liner and very majestic looking as well. It's a pity she wasn't retired back here in the UK where she belongs. Dad was a musician on the ship and would regularly set sail from Southampton to New York. Many stars of the silver screen were regular passengers on the RMS Queen Mary as well. RIP Dad X

I live in Long Beach. The Queen Mary has been going through Preservation, Refurbishment and Expansion Projects The City continues to identify projects that address the ship’s preservation, refurbishment, maintenance and expansion. There are several projects planned for 2024, including hotel room renovations and repairs, elevator upgrades, HVAC controls, and repair/repainting of the third smokestack. An expansive section of the Sun Deck, a popular location for special events and weddings, will be extensively renovated and repaired and renovated this year, which is expected to increase revenue generation immediately upon completion. There are also plans to renovate areas of the ship to support the return of the “Ghosts and Legends” tour, including the guest queuing and entry areas and areas within the tour. City staff will also collaborate with nonprofit partners to identify and fund art and historic restorations projects onboard. The Queen Mary’s role as a historic and cultural resource will be further promoted by identifying ways to integrate art, music and culture into ship programming.

[@lutomson3496]

its had a tough time over the decades lets hope the city doesnt run out of money to support it!

[@cak813]

I’ve stayed on the “Queen Mary” twice. I’m a bit of an ocean liner aficionado so it was a must-see for me when I was in Southern California. I stayed on her back in August 2001 and again in 2002 so the room where I stayed was in a bit better shape than yours. I don’t remember any issues with cleanliness but there were areas that looked a bit worn which I just chalked up to the overall age of the ship. I loved being able to walk around late at night, too, when all the day tourists had gone. The promenade deck is beautiful and you really do get the feeling you’ve stepped back in time. I loved all the Art Deco, too. Considering her fate was very much up in the air a few short years ago, I’m just glad her future is more or less secure. She really is a treasure. I’m glad you had the opportunity to stay on her. A unique experience for sure.

[@aaronjohnson7648]

Iam glad they are restoring her because i think she is the closest to Titanic. I did not stay on the Queen Mary but i did the ghost tour which was epic.

Tim's tours are nothing short than the Superbowl IMO.

[@dorisschneider-coutandin9965]

That was not a wine rack, but a shoe rack. And the round cutouts (various sizes) were likely to put your umbrellas (parasols, as well), plus walking canes into. They would be quite secure there in case of rough seas.

[@LVQ-so5th]

I've stayed on this ship and attended a wedding. I don't believe in ghosts, but if there is such a thing as a haunted place, this is it; especially if you walk down some of the unoccupied floors of the ship. Also, I highly recommend the tours of the lower levels, which are truly sketchy and scary. Next door to the ship you can also tour the Russian submarine (I believe it is called the scorpion). As mentioned in the video, the walls are very thin and you will hear your neighbors. And there is no excuse in any hotel for not keeping the rooms clean, however old they may be.

[@shanehall98]

It can be forgiven for looking a bit tired it gives it character. However, I do agree it could be cleaned better, and the bath could be shorted out to look a bit smarter.

[@dennisb9638]

This grand old lady looks a lot better than the QE2. I’d love to spend a night there. Great tour, thanks Tim!

[@gridley]

The QE2 is a by-product of the late 1960s, a totally different cultural & visual vibe from the 1930s. The 1960s-70s was Woodstock, the Vietnam War, polyester leisure suits & more TV glitz than movie glamour.

[@Bearleena]

My grandfather sailed on that ship from New York to Southampton in 1945, as a returning prisoner of war from the Far East. Fascinating to see its interiors, although I imagine it was very different in 1945.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

wow .. yes when it was used for the war i think they took some things away

The way tim says "wow look at that" is my reaction to his blue and white striped shirt in the morning...lol 😅

[@phil1980a]

Looked very interesting. Would have been nice if maybe some rooms were slightly modernised while still respecting the heritage of the ship. Was it just me or was the light flickering in the most haunted room?

The Queen Mary has been at Longbeach since Dec 1967 & guests started in the early 70's. She really is a Grand old Lady.

Thanks for the video Tim really enjoyed this tour of the Queen Mary. Yes it was a bit dirty in parts but overall I would love to stay there - love the eerie old atmosphere and golden light of the dimly lit corridors. The room looked charming nice and spacious plus love the views from the deck. Yes was checking up on it's haunted reputation before I saw this video and I think that just adds some more spice. Superb. Not sure about staying in one of the rooms alone though!!

[@CarphunterzUK]

the company that operates the queen Mary is and has been in massive financial struggle hence the terrible condition of the whole ship. they had major plans for a shopping complex in the grounds surrounding the ship but all fell through unfortunately. still a brilliant piece of British history either way

[@ShelterCats]

Smokestacks, not chimneys. Portholes, not windows. And welcome back to “I was shocked” for the millionth time. She’s a timepiece but she is finally being cared for and actually turning a profit. They’re working on her slowly but surely. We are lucky to still have her with us, unlike every other ship from her time. I’m not sure what you expected but she’s almost 90.

[@pollyh4422]

[@gbrading]

I visited the Queen Mary about 15 years ago and it was falling apart then, sadly it doesn't look like things have improved! Such a shame for such a grand old ship but I imagine the cost of maintaining it must be enormous, similar problem to all the old formerly grand Britannia Hotels.

How great it is to be taken back in time to yesteryear and to experience the luxury of such an iconic ship. How pleasing that so much of the original has been retained. I agree that your suite did leave a few things that should have been attended to but overall a tour of this ship is much appreciated. The total cost, actually, didn't seem too bad although breakfast seemed a bit steep.

[@ExploringWithBoss]

Fun fact Tim. The one ballroom has a moving map with two ships on it which moved during the voyage and when the Queen Mary ship passed her sister ship the Elizabeth on the ocean guests could see it from moving map and crew would have champagne ready to toast as the ships passed. I do believe they filmed some corridor shots for the movie titanic on the Mary.

The Queen Mary will always be my favorite vintage/historical ship and I have an extensive collection of Queen Mary items, including the original launch brochure. I was thrilled to stay on her several years ago, but at that time the ship was in pretty rough shape and although I was excited to see the many gorgeous public rooms, overall the ship just seemed kind of sad and neglected. I am a 100% believer in the paranormal but I can't help wondering if all the hype about haunting, etc. is just an attempt to attract more visitors. In any event, thank you for sharing your experience. I enjoy your videos because you are straightforward and no-nonsense about your impressions.

I stayed there twice, one year the night before leaving LAX and the other on arrival. Tim, you do have to give it a bit of leeway, it closed down for several years recently before Long Beach government stepped up to save it. It has undergone extensive and expensive checks on the hull to make sure it will stay afloat, hardly any reduction in section was found. They could gut the place and fit it with IKEA furniture but what would be the point. Like the Forth Bridge, they’ve started sympathetic refurbishment but it’s still going to be an eighty or ninety year old ship. They’ve completely redone the Cocktail lounge and a few other areas. I’d care to bet you’d find a few dusty corners in Buckingham Palace! Even the cheaper ($100 rooms when I stayed) are made up of two original cabins, one room being the lounge and bathroom I think and the other the bedroom. Get the carpet shampooer out but don’t change it too much, it’s a stunning place as worthy as many Chateaus and Castles in Europe. 😎😇

My wife’s grandad was a joiner on the ship when it was built. It was very emotional for her to visit the ship imagining that he had worked on its wooden interior. We were very impressed with the ship and decided to book a ghost tour. We were taken on the tour to the bottom of the ship and the lights were switched off. We were also taken to the bow of the ship where it collided with HMS Curacao and killed over 300 people. I can well understand it being haunted.

There have been paranormal experts who have been allowed in some of the haunted rooms and filming the activity. Needless to say it was quite amazing. From rocking chairs that start rocking on their own, static on the radio comes off and on, children playing and strange sounds. The really scary stuff was hair brushes on the vanity tables would be in different places. They would film for several days and seeing things move around like that is really scary.
