Portsmouth Historic Dockyard
About This Tour
Portsmouth Historic Dockyard sits within the still-active HM Naval Base Portsmouth, and brings together some of the most significant ships in British naval history: Nelson's flagship HMS Victory, the recovered Tudor warship Mary Rose, and the pioneering ironclad HMS Warrior. Several charities and museum trusts manage the site jointly, each preserving a different piece of that story.
It's an easy full day for anyone with an interest in maritime or military history, and a striking one even for guests who wouldn't normally call themselves naval enthusiasts.
