I visited SS Great Britain on a sunny day in April. The visit starts in the attraction shop and has a clearly marked route around allowing you to see the ship from literally all angles. It touches on the construction, operation and disposal of a grand old ship. I was amazed at the history and interested in the ongoing work... More

A great experience for all ages. They even have a lift on board for the less agile visitors. This is the second time I have visited and enjoyed it even more than last time. A feat of engineering and a tribute to a great man.

Took my boyfriend here for a little trip and he loves anything mechanical and to do with history. A very interesting ship that you can walk underneath and see all its workings including the rudder which was an advance for the time including the propeller. Inside the ship itself there is plenty to see including its inner workings and how... More

i was not really that excited about going but this really is an attraction worthy of 5 stars, attention to detail is amazing. if you are in Bristol make a B-line for it

This wonderful ship is well preserved and extremely interesting to visit and great fun for kids to explore.

Good explanatory museum prior to entering the ship itself. The restoration and interpretation is first class although certain areas are starting to look tired with obvious signs of woodrot in some of the deck features. Well worth spending at least half a day here to experience all it has to offer. A suggested route plan around the decks would help.

I'll admit, I wasn't expecting to love it as much as I did. It was informative, interactive, stinky, and helped a lot by the lovely weather - although I'd like to go again when it's not so greenhouse-like!
