This place is amazing. So much to see and do. I bought the explorer tickets on line as a lot cheaper. I will need to return at least twice more to see everything. I went for my husband's birthday with our adult children. We all thought it was great. I'm not particularly interested in ships but the social history etc really brought it to life for me. The Mary Rose exhibition is incredible. Can't wait to return.

This was the second day of our visit to the Dockyard (having spent a great first day the previous day). We targeted the Warrior this time plus some extra photo shots of the Victory. The people on board the Warrior were extremely well informed and enthusiastic in their explanations of the history/function/workings of the vessel.

The Portsmouth Historic Dock Yard is one of the best attractions we have visited! The amount of history on one site is unbelievable. It took us two and a half days to see everything. The presentation of the museum’s and exhibits is outstanding and the volunteers and staff are very informative! What a fantastic few days we had
