DAYSSG
Discover one of Britain’s most vibrant and historic cities on this enjoyable day trip to Bristol, including entrance to the remarkable SS Great Britain.
Arriving in the heart of Bristol, you’ll have time to soak up the lively atmosphere of this creative waterfront city. Wander through the historic harbour area, browse the shops, or relax in one of the many cafés and restaurants dotted around the waterside. Bristol blends maritime heritage with modern culture, making it a fascinating place to explore.
The highlight of your visit is entrance to the world-famous SS Great Britain, the groundbreaking ship designed by the brilliant engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel. Launched in 1843, she was the world’s first great ocean liner built from iron and powered by a propeller, revolutionising sea travel.
Today the beautifully restored ship is one of the UK’s most exciting museums. Step aboard and explore the decks, discover the lives of Victorian passengers, and venture below deck to see what life was like for travellers crossing the Atlantic nearly two centuries ago.
With interactive exhibits, fascinating stories and stunning views across the harbour, the SS Great Britain offers a truly memorable experience during your day in Bristol.
