The Cutty Sark is a museum ship. We could go to two floors and top but I was a little disappointed that more of the interior was not visible. We were able to do this visit in an hour so it felt a bit expensive. Tickets can be bought on arrival.

An interesting overview of the clipper ships history. Information about the distance travelled and goods transported- from tea to woll. Nice gift shop and cafe

Tabatha1998

A beautiful ship. Very interesting history she has. Well preserved. Unfortunately the ticket price is very high, especially in relation to time spent.

Teddiursa21

Very interesting visit telling you about the ship and the origins and trade in tea. The cafe beneath the hull was pleasant. Although a little disappointed the gift shop didn't sell Cutty Sark branded tea. :-(

I took the children to the Cutty Sark and they thoroughly enjoyed it. We got to explore the main deck and walk underneath the ship too. It's very sad to think that a fire burnt down part of the original but a great job was done with the restoration. There are many pubs nearby for lunch afterwards as well as Greenwich Market.

Much has changed since I visited the Cutty Sark 35 years ago. They have certianly done a wonderful restoration job on her which will ensure she's there for many years to come. Exploring the ship was fun and interesting, but my family really enjoyed the talk about sea sayings and the rope knot tying activity. Lots of interesting information about her history and fame. Cafe below selling the usual snacks and drinks. Shop containing quality souvenirs. One of the more unusual attractions on the London Tourist circuit. Has always had a special place in my heart.

Quite an amazing ship and haven't been to see it for years and it so much better now. Its really great as you can go under the ship now. Its history is well laid out. Its is a bit pricey but get the joint ticket which allows entry to other attractions too and of course the Maritime Museum is free, so think of it as a total package,

Very Interesting and well maintained ship. Some good explanation about the tea trade and other personal stories about life on board. Staff all friendly & helpful, had some activities for the kids (half term) Not a huge amount to see, ~ 1 hour. Good café for coffee beneath the ship. No GF food options.
