Expect to don a VR headsetfor a 30-minute guided tour that transports you from a submarine to the ship's ghostly remains at the ocean floor. Created by Eclipso, the experience is designed to engage all ages, letting attendees interact with objects aboard the ship, such as jellyfish and ship's furnishings. Families can discover the lesser-known stories of Titanic's passengers, from the elegance of third-class cabins to the dark tale of Chinese passengers turned away due to the Chinese Exclusion Act.

This interactive event costs between $26-$30 a person, which reflects its value given the blend of education and entertainment. Moreover, visitors can enjoy dining options at nearby spots like New Realm Brewery, making for a full day of exploration. My own adventure saw my children marveling at the virtual interactions while I was particularly struck by historical narratives, including the surprising fact that 100,000 people celebrated the launch of the Titanic.
