National Maritime Museum in Faizabad

Great museum. The draw on my last visit was the Nelson exhibit involving the uniform he wore at Trafalgar. Worth a visit regardless.

The info on Lord Nelson was interesting, there wasnt much on Wellington. Shackleton I also think should have had a bigger section devoted.I was looking for info on John Harrison regarding his maritime watches and how Greenwich became the centre of World time, but disappointingly there wasnt much.Free to enter so worthwhile for all to come and learn about how important the British Navy was at maintaining the Empire.

This place was fabulous. So much bigger and so much more inside than i expected. My 14 year old son LOVED it. We had a fab day here.

Absolutely amazing place, in the heart of Greenwich, for a fan of sea and history. I visited on my own, but I can say it is definitely a place for the whole family,as theres plenty of fun stuff for younger and older kids. Took me 3 hours to go through every floor and Im definitely going back for more. Every display worth a while, so much to enjoy and to learn. Café and a restaurant offers nice selection of food and drink. Plenty of toilets on each floor, so no worries in that department. Couldnt recommend more!

Very interesting museum. It was great that there was a good flow throughout. I didnt like that the upstairs cafe was card only and there was only the one sign at the til.

A great place for people with an interest in boats and naval architecture. Its a free museum set up in wonderful gardens of the queens house and Greenwich line.It pays tribute to Londons leading place in maritime history. The Pacific, Atlantic and trade sections have great presentations on the geopolitics of the early maritime trade.Did not feel crowded at all. Nice restrooms and a cafe on the first floor.

The museum is free. It’s an interesting visit. There are 4 floors of galleries and artefacts. There’s a cafe and gift shop. I felt it lacked content a little - they seemed to have lots of model ships but few actual pieces of real ships. Worth dropping in for a visit if you’re in the Greenwich area. It’s a short walk from the Cutty Sark

Excellent free museum for all the family. There is plenty for all ages to see including a ship simulator for the budding Captain and areas for children and adults to enjoy the history and knowledge that’s everywhere you turn. There is a specific children’s area which costs £3 per child which we didn’t bother with but if you did, sessions start at quarter past the hour and last 45 mins. Tickets are free but you are recommended to book in advance which we did but it was pointless as we just walked in and no one checked to see if we had a ticket. It could have been because it wasn’t overly busy (Tuesday albeit in the summer holidaysbut the system seemed pointless and possibly a relic from Covid times.Cafe on site which offers the usual fare, the whole place was large and very clean and tidy and well maintained. Thoroughly recommend.

Great place to explore history. Well organised.Parking is but if an issues but there is parking 5 and 10 minutes walk £3.20 an hour and cafe food is bit over priced other than that. Kids will love it so the grown ups. Great displays

An amazing place for a day long tour to explore the past. Lovely food. My son loved the AHOY play area. Spent a great day. Still loads to see around the place. Will pay more visits. Highly recommended. Quite different than other museums.

Beautiful museum for historic tall ships. Artifacts of many types including figureheads, cannon, sextons etc.Some fun digital / interactive displays too focused on battles.Long ships and world maps of various ages.Very interesting for anyone interested in navy.Rule Bittania!

What an amazing day out this was. This was my first ever experience of the National Maritime Museum and what a treat that was. Luckily, the whole family was present and the children loved it. Their lack of excitement faces when posing outside for a photo changed once they went inside. The little ones particularly enjoyed the children activity area whilst the eldest liked the Implacable stern displayed on the wall and also the ship figureheads.I would recommend a visit to the museum to everyone. You will not regret it.

This is a very enjoyable and free museum full of interesting Maritime history but more importantly, fun, interactive and engaging spaces and activities for kids. Id say theres at least 2 visits worth of free museum space for interested adults.

The museum was OK.We only went in as something to do whilst at Greenwich. It is a cool museum about ships and trade routes.Its good to walk about.

Been to Greenwich many times but have never been to the Museum. Found the place fascinating and would highly recommend the Nelson section. The nearby Royal Naval College is also worth a visit.

Absolutely one of my favourite places to visit so much to see and great place for children too...just love it here..highly recommend..

Lots of things to do and see my son was treated well as he has sensory problems and thye offered a senco bag at reception had a magnifying glass binoculars and lots of other things

Very nice museum, educational and entertaining. We entered for a quick walk but ended up spending 2 hours. The coffee is very good as well!

Small selection from the museums massive collection. Well displayed and explained but not too heavy on the Royal Navy. Currently doing a lot around the arrival of the Windrush. Free to visit apart from special exhibitions. A good way of spending a few hours in Greenwich.

Brilliant visit. My main purpose was to visit my great great aunts navigation equipment on display but was thrilled to also visit the astronomy exhibit. Well worth it just for that.

Great place to visit if you are interested in Maritime history. Lots to see. The cafe was good with outside seating.

This is close to greenwich line. So plan for a days trip if you are visiting this place. Its very interesting. Lots of stuff for young children. It will take atleast 3 hours to see this place. Closing time is 1700h. There are no entry tickets to this place.

Very good place to spend a Sunday with friends and family. A lot of great things to learn and discover.The only poor thing is the shop, nothing much to buy and I couldnt find any magnets.Rest of our experience was great.

Greenwich is just beautiful. Only 15-20 minute train journey from central London. Museum is free ( you can donate). You can easily spend a few hours there. So much to see (Pacific section, Polar section, etc.). My favourite place in London.

Good and interesting museum. Its for free like all museums in London - but that is not only an advantage, because of that is is very crowded and loud because of many children. So no real silence to read all the information and enjoy the sights... all in all definetly worth a visit

Lovely museum to spend a day with family and friends. Interesting exhibitions, lovely area outside to have a picnic, nice cafés on site.

Very Nice museum. A lot of things to see.+ Free !+ Accesible for wheelchairs+ Educational+ Easy to reach- plan Ahead, it can be crowded

Definitely 5 stars! Great exposition, friendly staff and free entry. Highly recommend! Thank you for your work!

A very kid friendly, tactile display taking you through a fairly eclectic mix of maritime history. We were only having a quick look around (its freebut sure you could spend half a day there going into more detail if you wish. The grounds its set in are also stunning and the view up the hill to the observatory (a paid experience itselfback onto London are stunning.

Not too crowded even in Saturday afternoon, a lot of knowledge about maritime history provided. After visiting the museum, all families can have a picnic outside in the Greenwich park. It is an amazing experience to have on weekend

You can spend multiple days here. So much to learn from all the exhibits regarding nautical life in the British Crown across centuries. Excellent exhibits.

This is a great museum in a even greater park. A lot of exhibitions are free accessible. Great services and friendly staff.

Visited specifically to see the Astonomy Photographer of the year Exhibition, (admission charge which was excellent but also enjoyed walking through many of the other galleries (free to enter).

Absolutely brilliant museum! Lots to see and do, along with some interactive displays (great for adults and kids alike!).The museum is free to all. There are also usually one or two special exhibitions which you can pay for separately.Id set a few hours aside to see the whole museum; we were there for a few hours and didnt manage to get around all the galleries.There is a nicely situated café on the ground floor alongside a well stocked museum gift shop!I will definitely be returning to Greenwich for this museum!

We went to Greenwich, starting at the 02 walking along the Thames path, its a lovely walk that takes about 45 min to walk to Greenwich, we walked around the grounds of the museum and the Royal naval college its a lovely old building with so much History you need a good day to see it all the museum is a lovely place to learn about our history on the sea good and bad and how we made such a small island nation such a force in the world. If you go to Cutty Sark I think its £25 per person and this covers you to go into the painted room, going onto the Cutty Sark and getting a look round the Observatory. Well worth the money and a lovely day out.

Its an incredibly amazing place and for all age groups. Look out for my favourite annual astronomy photography of the year exhibition.

It is a very big and interesting museum, we didn’t have enough time to see the whole exhibition but enjoyed it very much. I bought a book on the collection from the gift store for a very reasonable price. The building it self and the parks surrounding are very beautiful. People of all ages would enjoy this museum.

A nice exhibition of boats, ships and maritime instruments, including guns, canons, navigation tools, etc. There is a cool section for kids under 7, which costs 3£ for a kid and a parent.

Great range of free and paid exhibits , lovely cafe that’s always bustling which is ideal for refreshments/ cakes.Facilities are at a good standard which is great for families.Staff are all very informative and friendly!

I am a bit disappointed with the historical exhibition which is modest. It is definitely a good place for families, there are many multimedia solutions. In the afternoon (Good Fridayit was very loud and chaotic. The museum is free so there is nothing to be picky about but I was expecting something more.

Very interesting and informative on marine history, with people stories and education in marine. Recommend to visit if you want to understand British marine history. Shouldnt miss it out in your travel list.

Had a fantastic day out with my 2 children. Plenty to do and kept the kids busy. We were all exhausted by the end of the day. Would highly recommend for a day out. The views were amazing as well!

One of the top destination in Greenwich, The National Maritime Museum is the largest museum of its kind in the world to learn about maritime history. It is very friendly for kids, many engagement activities here for family and children. Dont forget to take a photo of the Ship in a Bottle in front of the museum, discover tales of polar exploration, and learn more about the indigenous communities that live in the Arctic and Antarctic, find your favourite figurehead which are carved wooden sculptures that traditionally sat on the prows of sailing ships, learn about the British hero Nelson and his victory at the Battle of Trafalgar 1805.

was very amazing experience. I enjoyed a lot.This is a historical place. You go here and get rich from the wealth of information. I like it very much.

A little off shoot from the main maritime museum that is much more adult based. Again free entry but you are encouraged to make a donation after walking freely around the floors. Each exhibit has information and theres info dotted around about the history of the house. I think you need to allow 30-60 for a visit

We visited on 16/01/22. It is free entry and we were told they had 2 new exhibitions to view. There is really quite alot to see here over different levels/floors. They also had young astronomer of the year exhibition, this was at a extra cost of £10 p/adult. There is 2 cafés with a choice of hot/cold drinks/food. Lots of interesting artifacts & information. I personally loved all the figureheads and the baltic glass ( stained glass exhibit along with the ship simulator ( a big kid at heart!)

Visited today and had a heart felt feeling for veterans who have served the navy and appreciations to our oceanic nature , constant improvements of trades, technology and cultures in the exchange via oceans in continents. Kids friendly and a lot things to experience and learn. Hope to see more in Traders history in the future. Royal observatory, Queen’s house just near your foot steps around the estate and Cutty Sark couldn’t be missed.

What a wonderful museum celebrating all things naval. Part of the Royal Greenwich Museums, the maritime museum is free. Members go free to exhibitions.There is a wealth of history including Nelsons uniform! There are galleries looking at history, but also life at sea in present times. I loved the free exhibition on living in Antarctica, and also the North pole.The exhibits on migration and slavery are both informative, poignant and thought provoking.The museum has a modern feel, lots of interactive things.Highly recommend a visit

Great place to visit for a day with family and especially for kids. For history and crown lovers, this is going to be an amazing experience. Really impressed at the replicas and informations displayed about each one. Free entry and access to multiple cafe in each floor. The view of london skyscrapers from the top of hill is so good

Wonderful day out. Have wanted to visit for a long time and decided to go yesterday. What a brilliant place. So much to see, wonderful exhibits and artwork. Being from Portsmouth we have an interest in things maritime especially Tudor period and Admiral Nelson and were not disappointed in what we saw. They have the uniform Nelson was wearing when fatally wounded at Trafalgar which totally stunned me as well as the cannon ball that struck HMS Victory among many other wonderful exhibits. There is something for everyone here, too much to list but have posted some pictures of some of the exhibits. We booked tickets online in advance in case it was busy and were offered car parking from 10.00-5.00 for just £10 which I would recommend. It meant we could visit the museum and then take a Thames River cruise safe in the knowledge the car was secure. Please try and visit this museum if you get the chance it is thoroughly recommended.
