Upptäck Bristols ikoniska viktorianska ångfartyg

SS Great Britain is unique and is well-presented although it looks as if there is a still a lot of restoration to do on an object this large and fragile. You will get to see the weather deck and the main passenger spaces below, including restored public spaces and cabins. There are further exhibitions on shore covering the ship's history and Brunel's life. The whole tour will take 1-2 hours. £25 walk up fee is steep although this is money that goes towards restoration and maintenance as well as running costs and salaries. It's cheaper if you book online in advance, although I couldn't make the app work.

Absolutely brilliant, so much history to see and learn, really well put together and family friendly. Will be back for sure.

Quite an interesting ship but original history of slave trafficking was omitted and ship has been remodelled

great ship . very intersting. lovely museum and great place on harbourside with all the boats and loads of places to eat

What a day! 3 hours of walking, exploring and information overload. Loved it! The only "let down" was the Being Brunel museum. We agree with the guide that all the Brunel dynasty should be represented not just Isambard. There were lots of people around, but we did visit on the day of the Bristol Food Festival, so that could account for that. A very relaxed atmosphere and you can take as long as you like to wander around. There are QR codes dotted around for you to get as much information as you wish. Great value for money at only £22.00 each. A great day out if you like just wandering around historic sites. There are guides around to talk to, but you're free to walk round at your own pace. The guides do advise you which way round to go. The gift shop is very well stocked if a bit on the pricey side, but that's what you expect when you visit a tourist attraction.

Fabulous visit to the SS Great Britain. We were amazed by the tour of this great ship: the two interior decks and the promenade deck, and even the hull since the boat is in dry dock. Everything has been masterfully recreated, you would think you were on the Titanic.

Fantastic afternoon. Lots to see and do and very interesting. Unfortunately one of the museums were closed. The ticket price should really have been reduced to reflect this

Fascinating insight into a major feat of engineering and into the impact of Brunel and all of the things he had a hand in. The time on board gives you a pretty good view as to what it would have been like on a long trip. The Brunel museum is also well worth the visit. Would have given it 5 stars but the Britain experience museum was closed for refurbishment, (not mentioned when booking or in any reduction in the charges). Was also interesting to walk around the dry dock area

We really enjoyed our visit to both SS Great Britain but also spending time walking by the river afterwards. There is a large open air car park close by which is discounted if you have tickets for SS Great Britain (just pay in the ticket office). The ships itself is fascinating with lots to explore. On the day of our visit we were very fortunate as they were trial running tours which I understand will be available to book over the summer. The tour was led by Miss Buxton who was in character as a first class passenger who shared information about the ship and stories of its passengers and crew. This definitely enhanced our visit.

Very nice museum. We liked the fact that you could access all parts of the ship and the way they made the experience immersive, addning not only props but also made history come alive with sounds, smells, light and temperature. You could really get a sense of how in must have been on board, wether you were travelling in first, second or third class. Very different form a traditional museum. Highly recommend.
