    1. Cutty Sark

      Cutty Sark is the world’s sole-surviving tea clipper, celebrated for her record-breaking passages around the globe. Come aboard and experience what it was like to sail this much-loved national icon. Initially built for the China tea trade and launched in 1869, Cutty Sark’s original wooden planks and iron frames have been meticulously conserved. As part of an ambitious six-year conservation project, the ship was raised over three metres, giving visitors the unique opportunity to stand directly underneath this world wonder and see her elegant lines and ground-breaking design. It has now been developed into an  award-winning museum and visitor experience. Your entrance ticket will allow you to explore her in full. Discover what life was like on board a true survivor of the seas, see the sailors' quarters and take the helm at the ship's wheel.Stand on the main deck and marvel at the towering masts and 11 miles of rigging, take the helm at the ship’s wheel, and enjoy fabulous views of the River Thames. Located in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Maritime Greenwich, the National Maritime Museum and the Queen’s House are both located within a short walking distance from Cutty Sark and are free to visit. The Royal Observatory is a must-see attraction when visiting Greenwich as its the home of GMT and the Prime Meridian.

    Well worth a visit

    What a great way to spend an hour. We got a real sense of what life would have been like as a crew member in the 19tj century. Big shout out to the guide on the ship who spent 15 mins answering our questions and giving us loads of fascinating information. His name was Graeme Tripp I believe and he was an excellent ambassador for The Cutty Sark

    Wonderful Museum

    The ship has been beautifully restored. Signage and short films take you through the exhibits. This is a good venue if you have mobility challenges as there are elevators to all floors. Remember that your entrance fees help support the maintenance of this amazing piece of history. Don't miss this museum if you're in the Greenwich area.

    Ok

    Don’t forget to use the discount code if you travelled on the train. That makes it good value. Otherwise, not the best museum, the best view was the dry dock showing the hull of the boat.

    Response from the operator: Dear 57andy, thank you for your feedback. We're glad the dry dock and hull view stood out for you. It's also worth knowing there's plenty more to explore, including our free SMARTIFY audio guide, as well as added-value activities and talks – we hope you'll come back and discover more of what's on offer!

    Vote for Cleveland!

    Loved it. My son is currently obsessed with ships and he had the best time. Shout out to Cleveland and his rope knot tutorial. He was so approachable and patient with my son. Thank you.

    Response from the operator: Dear 281mrst, thank you for such a lovely review! We're so glad your son had the best time — Cleveland will be delighted to hear his rope knot tutorial was such a hit, and that his patience made the experience extra special. Hope to see you both back on board soon!

    Scouts and Explorer Scouts visit

    We took a group of Scouts and Explorer Scouts to the Cutty Sark Museum. We enjoyed the interactive displays and information and especially the knowledgeable guides who demonstrated and then got the young people involved in knot tying. Overall a great way to spend a couple of hours

    Response from the operator: Dear 302vincer, thank you for bringing your Scouts and Explorer Scouts to visit us! We're so glad the group enjoyed the interactive displays, and that our guides' knot-tying demonstrations got everyone hands-on and involved. Hope to see you all back on board again soon!

    'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.

    How much does 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket cost?

    +

    Prices start at $30 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.

    Is 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 390 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket?

    +

    Around 137 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in London?

    +

    London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour, Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit London?

    +

    May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in London?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket?

    +

    Included: Admission ticket. Not included: Transportation to/from attractions. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket?

    +

    The experience starts at Cutty Sark, Greenwich Church Street, King William Walk, London, SE10 9HT, United Kingdom. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket offered in?

    +

    It is offered in German, Portuguese, Korean, Chinese, Cantonese, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to 'Cutty Sark' Entrance Ticket if the weather is bad?

    +
