Take a tour of a tall ship from the Pirates of the Carribbean movies
By - posted 2/18/2014 No Comment

The tall ship Lady Washington  is back in the Bay Area offering free walk-on tours while docked in between their cruises. Crews typically are on hand in period costume to answer questions and tell stories.

Lady Washington, a replica of an 18th century sailing ship, has appeared in several television shows and movies, including Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

You can spend lots of dough for a cruise, but if you want to board the ship when its docked and take a self-guided tour, it’s free.
