Great day out

Gloria_H, Feb 2026

Just to be aware that there are a lot of stairs around in all the places. Would highly recommend the cafe near the observatory. The park walk is lovely

Worth the time

Elaine_R, Sep 2025

You are on your own with this experience. All this does is get you advanced tickets to the attractions. However, easy to get there with the circle line to Blackfrairs & Blackfrairs train to Greenwich. The meridan was fun for photos, & the Cutty Sark was amazing. Totally worth going for just those two.

Greenwich…it’s lovely.

Kimberly_M, Aug 2025

Head to observatory, meridian first. Allow 1 1/2 to 2 hours. To get there go up hill…take the road up as the other way up is wicked steep. Naval Museum is very nice. Allow up to 2 hours. Very kid friendly. Queens house is all artwork. No furniture. Allow 1 1/2 hours or more…there’s a lot of art work. Not a place for kids. Cutty Sark is another very kid friendly area. 1 to 1 1/2 hours. We ate at the Greenwich Tavern with a lovely outdoor area. Beautiful area to spend a full day in. Recommend UBER boat.

Pocono pair.

Francis_Z, Aug 2025

Bring plenty of water. The staff is very friendly. I had a problem with walking they helped with fixing my shoe. They are to be commended.

See where TIME starts

Peter_G, Jun 2025

Great visit to where TIME starts. Beautiful museum. Have always wanted to see a John Harrison clock as his story is incredible as how he solved the problem of longitude. The telescopes of years gone by wow magnificent. A must visit when there.

Great Experience for Families

Marianne_C, Jun 2025

We really enjoyed the Cutty Sark and the Observatory. Although we did not have children with us, the Cutty Sark had a lot of hands on activities that kids of all ages would enjoy. The Observatory was also really cool. There were some "talks" that happened while we were at the Observatory that gave us insights into the Greenwich Mean Time. Great Experience. Did Cutty Sark first and then the Observatory with just a little time left for the museum, but that was just fine. They have a little cafe at the museum, too.

Portsmouth Harbor Day

hanley89, Oct 2024

The train from London is walking distance to the harbor. It’s a great day to spent exploring the ships. HMS Victory and HMS Warrior and the Mary Rose

Greenwich Is amazing!

Mike_J, Oct 2024

Please remember this is a self guided tour! Please also remember to bring headphones for your phone there are free self guided tours at museums. More knowledge than you can believe and it’s amazing! Greenwich Is a beautiful city and has a wonderful open market! Would definitely come back

What a view

Lesley_C, Oct 2024

The climb up the hill to the Observatory almost did me in but was worth it. Got to see the prime meridian line.

Great day out from London

Erica_L, Aug 2024

Greenwich is a great day out from London. Lots to see, Cutty Sark, Observatory, museums, markets, lunch venues and just strolling the streets. It was an easy train ride from central London. You can easily spend 6 to 8 hours in Greenwich.

Wonderful Greenwich trip via water taxi

Penny_F, Jul 2024

We had a lovely trip me and my nephews. Very educational and lovely to see Greenwich . Everything was easily accessible. Plenty of people to help and guide. Good merchandise in the gift shops.

Had a great day

Catherine_B, Jul 2024

Observatory ; greenwich meridian; history of families of astronomers who lived there Cutty Sark National maritime museum

Great day in Grernwich

NoelNessy_P, May 2024

Greenwich is an interesting place to visit. The Naval museum is a large complex and more than 1 visit would be needed to see it all. The Cutty Sark is also good to visit as is the Observatory as both are historic

Great day out

Alleena_W, May 2024

Excellent day out. Would have been good if Painted Hall was included in ticket as well. The Cutty Sark was very interesting and onformative. It was great for kids as well and has a reasonably priced cream tea with tea or coffee available.

Great sights. Viator package disappointing.

LES_G, May 2024

Maritime Museum, Cutty Sark and Queens House great to see and in themselves are 5 star. However two of these were actually free and considering this Viator charged a phenomenal amount for this package, especially when unable to access Observatory. Hence the 1 star for Viator.

We weren't able to go and...

Claire_R, Feb 2024

We weren't able to go and I tried to make contact with Viator. I was hoping to change dates, but I still haven't got any acknowledgement. Wouldn't recommend the company. I hear Greenwich is great though.

Great value for money

yosser, Jan 2024

Informative and staff at both venues we visited were excellent in helping us get the best out of the visit.

The Cutty Sark was like...

Arthur_H, Aug 2023

The Cutty Sark was like going back in time how standing in 2 hemispheres can only happen at the Prime Meridian. Great day.

Cutty Sark/Observatory and the Queens House House and the Maritime Museum all worth it.

Susan_P, Aug 2023

Hard to separate the experiences all so different so would suite most visitors in different ways. Would of like the Royal Naval College to be added as the painted ceiling is worth viewing. Would of willingly paid extra to see this

Nice reprieve from the crowds

Mary_I, Jul 2023

Very insightful history on board the Cutty Sark & Maritime Museum. Note: the museums are free & this pass did not include the Painted Hall at the Royal Naval College. It was refreshing to escape the crowds at the major tourist sites of London for a day!

Mixed impression of value & ease

Marybland_L, Jul 2023

The Maritime was free. Yet, it was advertised as part of your price. The other two were excellent though your price was hard to assess as a value choice

Very interesting and fun!

JuanJose_M, Jun 2023

I had no expectations of this tour and I had an incredible experience. The royal observatory is super interesting and we were all in awe with all the timepieces, equipment, charts, and telescopes that were on display. Definitely worth the time to visit.

Well Observed.

David_D, Jun 2023

Visit to the Royal Observatory in Greenwich Park. Very well laid out with helpful volunteers to answer any questions and act as guides. Enjoyed the experience learning a lot. Had lunch in the cafe pavilion to finish.

Wonderful

SC_T, Jun 2023

Prebooking shorten my queuing time. Worth for money. My children enjoyed this place and ship history.

I think I got screwed..

Fran_A, May 2023

We bought a day pass ticket for all the venues at Greenwich. Turns out we did not need a ticket for the museum, and the ticket didn't work for the Painted Hall. So the only thing I used the ticket for was the Cutty Sark and the Royal Naval Observatory. It would have been much cheaper to buy those tickets separately.

Great to explore

Carol_H, Nov 2022

Greenwich was interesting and you could spend a full day there. It had so many pavilions to explore. The Cutty Sark was so imposing. I enjoyed everything there.

Enjoyable day and learned lots

Just_D, Jun 2022

The Cute Sark was wonderful. We read all of the storyboards and learned lots. The directions for reaching the Observatory confused us and we walked up the road instead of the path. This turned out to be beneficial because for a couple of eighty year olds this was a strenuous walk. Coming back down the path we marveled at how steep it was. The Observatory was worth the effort though. We passed on the museums-too tired.

Underestimated

Scott_W, Jun 2022

Awesome place. Only gave ourselves three hours here. It's nowhere near enough. We'll be back and will be spending the full day here to see everything. Even that might not be enough. Brilliant staff. Great views. Interesting displays if you have family members into history or technology or how the world and solar system used to and does work. Make sure you book the planetarium events in advance, they do sell out before the day.
