This full-day private tour takes you on a scenic drive to Portsmouth Historic Dockyards. Tour historic ships, including HMS Victory and HMS Warrior. Visit the Mary Rose and the Navy Museums. Enjoy a harbor tour by boat and maybe try some fish and chips (own expense)!This full-day tour from the London area takes you on a scenic drive to the historic naval dockyards of Portsmouth where you’ll see the famous ships that attract visitors from around the world.
On your tour of several historic Royal Navy ships, the highlight will undoubtedly be HMS Victory, Nelson’s flagship during the famous Battle of Trafalgar. Learn what life was like for these brave sailors, climb the decks, and see where Nelson lived and died.
Another highlight for many is the Mary Rose, the flagship of King Henry VIII. This old ship sank on its maiden voyage, just outside Portsmouth harbor wall. It was raised from the seabed in the 1980s and is now housed in a brand-new museum along with thousands of artifacts.
Nearby we can also visit HMS Warrior, the most powerful ship of its time in the 19th century.
If weather allows, the trip also includes a harbor tour by boat, so you can see actual modern-day Royal Navy vessels in dock and many others visiting the huge natural harbor.
As we're right next to the sea, you might want to treat yourself to some traditional Fish and Chips (own expense)!
