★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 1,052 reviews · 365 days · from $62Our pick

1-year Portsmouth Historic Dockyard pass from $62, with Mary Rose, HMS Victory, HMS Warrior, submarines, and a harbour cruise.

“The Victory tour was excellent. It was great to go at our own pace with the informative audio guide which brought everything to life. The Mary Rose was equally absorbing and all the exhibits were brilliantly presented. The 4D film at the end was a bonus! The staff were friendly and enthusiastic and we had a really memorable visit. We shall be returning to explore much more of this inspiring Dockyard before our tickets expire. Thank you for such an enjoyable day!”

3.Spinnaker Tower High Tea in the Clouds

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 126 reviews · 3 hours · from $60

Sea-view high tea at Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth, with included tower entry, deck views to 23 miles, and the Sail of the Solent film.

“The views are amazing and well worth the price as was the tea. We were lucky as the weather was perfect and we had a lovely time. BUT: Don’t believe the start time of the experience and give yourself plenty of time to enjoy yourselves. Our booking was at 2pm and our parking ran out at 3.15pm which would have been plenty of time to enjoy our afternoon tea. Sadly we were not served until 2.45pm so we had to eat super quick and this truly put a dampener on the whole experience.”
