SS Great Britain Ferry Landing — Local services in Bristol

We were both blown away by our time at the SS Great Britain - its a must see place on a visit to Bristol.

The SS Great Britain is a brilliant place to spend a few hours in. Fascinating, interesting and how the whole place is put together, there is something for everyone.

Do visit the dry dock as it helps with the context of Brunel’s brilliance and adds to the enjoyment once your onboard the SS Great Britain.

The Museum that you first enter before visiting the boat has so many layers of detail and ability to engage - it’s the kinda of place you can walk through and get the gist of the boat or spend a lot of time and deep dive. Truly excellent (only the only other place I have seen this done well is the Titanic Museum in Belfast).

On board the SS Great Britain - WOW - it is a small leap of imagination to how life on the boat could be - so so good.

Your ticket allows you to revisit for free...

Excellent day out! Admission prices are a bit on the steep side but its a yearly pass so when put into that perspective it all seems worth it! We went with my grandmother who struggles sometimes to get about so i was slightly concerned she wouldnt be able to get about and have to sit this one out. To my surprise, all of the museum and the boat itself has disabled lifts which made exploring the ship and learning about its passed just that bit easier so thank you to whoever thought that one up! I especially loved dressing up in the period clothing, its a very easy way to get random strangers laugh at you uncontrollably! Loved it and intend to come back very soon to SS GB and bristol...

There is no departure information. There is a very short ferry which takes you right across the river in about 2 minutes!! Common Bristol,...
