There is a student discount! 7minutes walking from Govan station Took about 30 minutes to skim through! With the free museum next to the ship, about 1-2hours. Good for both adults and kids! Such an amazing experience with an old ship Glenlee! You can learn about history of this ship from the log book of a sailor who was on! It was so much fun imagining myself as a sailor out of at sea!!
The ship is sa true landmark of Glasgow. Hawing served under many flags It returned to Glasgow and now serves proudly as a stationary landmark of the city's shipbuilding past. The inside is not as impressive as the outside but the best part for me was the cargo hold. I had wonderful time learning bout the boat and connecting with my roots as my grandfather was a welder at the Denny's in Dumbarton. Overall. A must in the city even just to pass by
This ship is definitely worth a visit if you’re exploring the Riverside Museum. Doesn’t take too long to explore but you can get up close in all the main areas from the hold and engine room to the captain and crew quarters. Really nice staff in all areas and even has a cafe and and toilets on board. Well worth a visit and really cheap to get on.
Amazing to explore a ship that was around in the war. I enjoyed exploring the boat. I enjoyed it more than i thought. There is a small cafe inside thats inexpensive.
Great ship but the lower decks are very boring. It is interesting to see but if you don't want to be disapointed, just stay the deck 😉 I would say that if it wouldn't cost any money... but it does.. so enjoy you time and have fun.
